The scheme enables community consultation to take place and emphasises the links between parish council and the community. The consultation process identifies what the residents want—this can be from small improvements to large scale projects! At this stage it can include some items which are perhaps more of a “wish list”. How- ever from this consultation process more work is still needed on the information that is gathered so that a realistic and feasible action plan (The Parish Plan) can emerge identifying possible part- ners (e.g. councils, primary care trusts, environmental groups), actions and funders who may be able to help in achieving the aims contained within the plan.

    3rd March 2017 STANDING OUT THE MAGAZINE FOR MOUNTS BAY ACADEMY Photo: Mr Raggett Cover: Orienteering 25th May 2018 PRINCIPAL’S REPORT It’s in our DNA... I’m often asked by visitors when they come to the Academy, why do you think that your students seem to be such well balanced, confident and gregarious individuals compared to their counterparts in some areas of the country? The answer of course is due to many factors, firstly we live and work in one of the most beautiful places in the UK with its own unique history and culture. At Mounts Bay we then give all of our students the learning, personal mentoring and skills to enable them to use their time with us to the best of their advantage with the aim of making them “the best that they can be”. When you examine this more closely it is through a combination of the attributes we were born with and our learning experiences that result in our success. As we are in the throws of the GCSE examination timetable, I have been observing some of the work we are doing in our revision sessions and in Science they have been looking at what makes things the way they are. A fundamental element of this is DNA, or a set of instructions in each cell that tells it what it needs to do to grow and fulfil its function successfully. So the key to our success is that it’s already “in our DNA”, we just need to use the talents we were born with and follow the “instructions” in our Mounts Bay DNA.

    Link to thesis website Chapter 6 Competing speech communities Chapter 6 Competing speech communities The final chapter of this section focuses on the evolution of folk tradition, and the new spaces created for performance, within the Celto-Cornish movement through the latter half of the twentieth century to the current era of festival culture and Pan- Celticism. It makes the case that the Celto-Cornish movement and the folk revival that arrived in Cornwall in the sixties represent different speech communities, which competed for ownership of oral folk tradition and the authenticity it represented. It must be also be recognised that there is a third speech community with a stake in the celebration of tradition, the local community within which it takes place. One outcome of these competing speech communities is the way in which the same folk phenomena will be used to express quite different identities. The Padstow May Day festivities for example are a celebration that firstly represents a sense of the towns community1 and secondly a Celto-Cornish tradition2 but at the same time is used as an icon by the English Folk Dance And Song Society.3 Underlying this discussion, however, must be the recognition that identity is chaotically unique for each individual and each group of individuals, all of which are at the centre of a “complex web of being”.4 In order to pursue this argument it is first necessary to revisit and examine more closely what is meant by a speech community and how this might affect performance and meaning within oral folk tradition.
