Headteacher Leaving Broadwindsor Primary School

The Governing Body at Broadwindsor Primary School have released the news that Mr. Philip Smith, Headteacher has made the personal decision to step back from headship at this time in order to pursue new projects and challenges.

All are sorry to see him go. The Governors commented: “His positive leadership and enabling approach has seen the school progress in many ways both in terms of the open and inclusive environment the school has become and in terms of the learning opportunities the school provides. He leaves the school in a very strong position. I am sure you join us in wishing Mr Smith well on the next phase of his career and future.”

Mr Smith wanted to thank the whole learning community, staff, pupils, parents and wider community for their amazing support they have given him during the time he has been here and especially the challenging times throughout the Covid pandemic. He also wanted to reassure everyone that he will continue to lead the school and support the leadership transition in a professional manner.

The Governing Body has already embarked on the task of recruiting a new Headteacher for the school. Governors are being supported by Dorset Council and the Salisbury Diocese in the recruitment process and it is anticipated that this will be completed in May for a new Headteacher to be in place for September.

Chairman of the P.T.A. Martin Burt commented: “Mr. Smith has had a fantastic influence on the whole school. His hard work and dedication as head teacher has had a positive impact on the children, teaching staff and parents alike. Mr. Smith leaves big shoes to fill and we wish him the best of luck in the future.”

Last Orders At The Comrades Arms – Tuesday, 19th April

A message from Andrew Hookings:

After six months since we re-opened The Comrades Arms, it is now time to call last orders. So, next Tuesday, 19th April will be our last night.
During that time a number of people from our community have volunteered to help behind the bar, and I thank them for all their time and help.
You, our customers have supported the bar and enabled us to raise almost £10,000 towards the refurbishment of The White Lion – so a BIG THANK YOU to all of you too.
I hope you will all give the newly furbished community pub – The White Lion at Broadwindsor, together with Kate, our manager along with her team of Chloe and Louise, all your support and I trust you will enjoy many happy times there.

– Andrew.

Andrew leaves the village next weekend to spend the next few months in France with Margery. Margery will be providing an update on The White Lion next week, which is expected to include their opening date! Exciting times 🙂

We wish Andrew and Margery (& Edgar) safe travel and to them both…

The Imagined Village – Thursday, 21st July

Village resident Simon Emmerson will be back on stage after a decade long hiatus, with his band, The Imagined Village who are premiering at the Electric Palace on Thursday, 21st July at 8pm.

This will be a special warm up gig with members of the original line-up, joined by Billy Bragg.

The most ambitious folk fusion band of the 21st century, The Imagined Village set out to match English traditional songs against the sounds of contemporary multi-cultural England, with influences from Asia, the Caribbean and elsewhere. And they did so with an extraordinary line-up that included folk celebrities:

Eliza Carthy
Martin Carthy,
Simon Emmerson (of Afro-Celt Sound System fame),
Sitar exponent Sheema Mujherjee,
That rousing dhol and tabla percussionist Johnny Kalsi, and
Drummer Andy Gangadeen.

They recorded three albums, played at major festivals from Glastonbury to Cambridge, headlined at concert halls and appeared on Later…With Jools Holland, performing a stomping, percussive re-working of Cold Haily Rainy Night (the song that won them Best Traditional Track at the 2008 BBC Folk Awards). Then, after recording Bending The Dark in 2012, they took an unexpectedly lengthy break, from which they have at last thankfully returned.

Tickets are available from Bridport Electric Palace – Click HERE.

£29 in advance
£30 at the door

The Imagined Village will be performing at this year’s Beautiful Days Festival – 19th-21st August at Escot Park, Devon – playing a VERY special headline performance on the Big Top Stage.

Full Moon – Saturday, 16th April

The Full Moon is when the Sun and the Moon are aligned on opposite sides of Earth, and 100% of the Moon’s face is illuminated by the Sun.

This month’s Full Moon is at 19.56hrs. on Saturday, 16th April and is known as the ‘Pink Moon‘.

It is also the Paschal Full Moon. Simply speaking, the Paschal Full Moon is the first full Moon after the Spring Equinox. This Moon can sometimes occur in March and sometimes in April. The first Sunday after April’s full moon is celebrated as Easter Sunday. It’s possible that the reason why the Easter Bunny brings eggs is because April’s Full Moon is also known as the Egg Moon, given that animals such as geese begin mating and laying eggs in Spring.

This name is not because the Moon will be pink in colour. It comes from the pink moss, or wild ground phlox, which is one of the earliest widespread flowers of the Spring in North America. Other names for this month’s Full Moon, all of which indicate the season, include:

Full Sprouting Grass Moon
Egg Moon
Full Fish Moon, among coastal tribes because this was the time that the fish swam upstream to spawn.

At the same time, April is a time when rivers and streams begin to fully thaw. Accordingly, April’s Full moon was:

Full Melting Moon, by the Shoshone tribe.
Moon Where Ice Breaks in the River, by the Arapaho tribe.
Sugar Maker Moon, by the Abenaki tribes
Sugarbush Moon, by the Ojibwe tribe. The Ojibwe tribe would journey north to their spring camps to tap maple syrup and engage in spear fishing. Maple syrup was integral to Ojibwe culture: not only was it a crucial method of seasoning all their foods (they did not have access to salt at that time), but it also symbolized harmony within the community and with the forces of nature around them.

In other religions:

In Islamic communities around the world, April’s full moon is celebrated as Bara’at Night, also known as the Night of Innocence. Muslims offer up prayers, asking their God to absolve dead ancestors of their sins. They also prepare sweet desserts such as halva or zarda and give it out to children, the needy, and other members of their community.

Does Your Dog Have Kennel Cough?

There is the presence of Kennel Cough in a couple of dogs in our village at this time.

Kennel cough is an airway infection that causes a dry hacking cough in dogs and is highly contagious.

Kennel cough spreads by direct contact between dogs, in the air and on surfaces (such as food bowls and leads). Dogs with kennel cough should be kept away from other dogs and public spaces while they are coughing, and for two to three weeks afterwards.

Symptoms of Kennel cough usually take 3-14 days to develop and then last for 1-3 weeks. Most dogs develop a hacking cough and stay otherwise quite well, but puppies, older dogs, and poorly dogs can develop more serious symptoms such as:

A reduced appetite
Low energy (lethargy)
A high temperature (fever).

Treatment is usually anti inflammatories from your vet.
Vaccination is the best way to prevent kennel cough, and is especially necessary if your dog spends lots of time with other dogs or goes into kennels.

For further information on treatment and care – please visit the PDSA website HERE.

Drimpton Film Club – Tonight, 7pm – “Sweet Bean”

Doors open at 7pm for a 7.30pm showing of “Sweet Bean” (PG), a Japanese film with sub titles directed by Naomi Kawase.

A struggling street vendor needs to pay rent on his stall and trade is bad. He makes little pancakes with a sweet bean paste but he knows his paste is not as good as it should be. Help to turn his business around comes from an unexpected source and that is where our tale starts.

This is a beautifully made film, no excessive dialogues, so time to hear city life, the rustling of the trees, nature and the seasons and three lonely people coming together for mutual benefit.

A wonderful book. A wonderful film.

Drimpton Film Club Members – Free entry.
Guests – £4
Refreshments available: Wine, Beer, Tea & Coffee.

For any queries, information etc. please contact Diana Leake on 01308 867172.
