Welcome to the April issue of the Arrow!

April does bring with it the promise of Spring. Easter is late this year so lets hope for a great 2 weeks off with the kids. At half term. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t forget to change your clocks on the 26th March. The move to British Summer Time (BST) means that the days are getting longer - but switching clocks also means a whole hour less in bed. The good news is that many of our internet-connected clocks (like smartphones, tablets and TVs) will do it automatically. But you still need to be prepared to avoid getting caught out. I would love to be including more local community content within this magazine. It costs nothing for local groups and societies. If you know of an organisation please ask them to get in touch. The deadline for the May issue is Wednesday 12th April for distribution by the 1st May . If you are interested in advertising please be in touch before the date.

Epworth Music Day Imagine it’s 9.59am on Saturday 24 June. In one minute’s time the streets of Epworth will again resound with music and song. Yes, it’s Epworth Music Day again – 7 hours of music and song. A grand day out! And all free of charge! This year there will be again over 50 different acts performing throughout the day and evening to make the town come live once again to a day of music, song and dance. During the day starting at 10am and running through until 5pm there will be simultaneous performances programmed at 13 different venues in the town: in the car park of the White Bear, in the gardens of the Wesley Methodist Memorial Church, outside China Palace, in the car park of the Queens Head, in the Market Place, in Fountain Court, outside the sheltered accommodation in Albion Street, in the car park of the Mowbray Arms and in the gardens of the Old Rectory and inside the Hub. There will also be an impromptu stage area outside the dentist in Church Street for anyone to sign up and perform, as well as sessions of folk music and song in The Tap and the Red Lion. If it is wet the show will still go on, but all of the performances will move to adjacent indoor venues in the town centre or on site. Last year we attracted choirs, brass ensemble, jazz group, wind band, bellringers, folk bands, rock bands, ukulele band, Morris dancers, mediaeval musicians and dancers, folk singers and musicians and guitarists. Many of these groups have asked to play this year, together with others who have heard how much fun the day is. They came from North Lincolnshire and South Yorkshire, Hull, Grantham and Lincoln. Surely something for every musical taste? In the evening there will be a free concert in St Andrews Church, starting at 7pm when 7 of the groups who have played during the day will reappear. At the same time local rock bands will be playing in the Queens Head starting at 8.30pm. We are once again very grateful for the financial support of Epworth Town Council and Harold Woolgar Insurances, together with support from many traders and businesses in town. After the 2016 event, Peter Barnard, director of Epworth Music Day, said “What a great day! It was wonderful to see so many people about in Epworth enjoying the music and the spectacle of over 40 different musical acts. People came from near and far to witness it and the traders were very busy. Events such as these take some organising and I really appreciate the time and energy given by all the volunteer stewards - who are really the unsung heroes of the day - and my fellow directors – Kate Billmore, Nicky Thomas, John Lambert and Peter Davies whose unstinting work in planning for all eventualities and then making it all work so well on the day makes the day such a success. A great team effort! We just now need lots of people to come and enjoy this day of free music in our lovely town. So, it would be great if you could join us in celebrating music making in the community. Join in by listening and watching or busking and helping at impromptu sessions. It will be a grand day out!”

Epworth Music Day 2017 – Saturday 24th June from 10-5pm and then again from 7pm in the evening. Put it in your diary now! For more details go to website or our Facebook page or call Peter Barnard on 01427 873937.

Supporter to Reporter Programme Steve Parsons Tutor and Programme Development Lucy Chessman S2R For Success is a programme where students enhance their speaking and listening skills through becoming sports reporters. At Study Parks they are ideally positioned, with the generous help of the club, to be able to use Glanford Park as their classroom. During the ten week programme, participants take part in a number of activities which encourage and develop their journalistic skills, these include interviewing professional reporters and Scunthorpe United players, scripting and filming a piece to camera in their own “green-screen” studio and blogging, tweeting and filming live at one of United’s home games. To finish off the programme a celebratory presentation event takes place where family members are invited along to see certificates and “digital badges” in Journalism and Production skills awarded. The students from the academy have been busy working on a ground tour and producing iMovies about Glanford Park and SUFC’s future new stadium. They have also completed their reporter interviews with SUFC’s very own James Moody taking the hot seat. Last weekend they attended their match visit for the Scunthorpe vs Fleetwood game. The junior reporters were challenged to write a comprehensive match report, take part in live Twitter reporting and videoing live action reports as the game progressed. They were sat in the AMS stand with the many Grassroots Football day supporters. It was an exciting and very entertaining day for all that took part despite Scunthorpe being beaten 2-0. A spokesperson from Study united said that the junior reporters were very

focused during the match. They sent some good 'tweets' and made notes enabling them to produce informative match reports in this week's session. I asked two students, Adriana and Charlie, what their favourite part of the experience has been so far. Charlie replied with, ‘Actually having the experience of going and meeting new people’ and Adriana replied with, ‘I liked watching the football match and tweeting the game.’ All participants have to work to deadlines and future sessions will include script writing for their own TV show, (to be recorded in their very own purpose built green-screen TV studio.), recording the TV show and controlling the mixing desk and finally creating a presentation about their experiences on the programme. They will also be testing their skills, interviewing Scunthorpe United players, Luke Daniels (Goal Keeper) and Stephen Dawson (Captain) Everyone has been enthusiastic and interested in the activities they are completing and this shows in the quality of the work they have produced. When asked which qualities have improved since they started the programme one student, Charlie Brannan, replied with, ‘I’m thinking a lot more differently about my choices and how much effort I put in to things.’ Another student, Adriana Roe said, ‘I’ve learnt that you need to listen carefully to pick up on things.’ Everything they produce will go towards the achievement of Study Parks Awards in Reporting and Production. The final session sees the Junior Reporters present their experiences to staff and parents and receive their certificates.

TWICKENHAM 6 NATIONS VISIT FOR SHIRT UNVEIL On Sunday 26th February Kieran Sibley (Year 10), Mr Beesley and Mrs Hall set off for London at 6am ready for a day at Twickenham and the 6 Nations clash between England and Italy. The main reason for this was that Kieran was going to be on the hallowed Twickenham turf alongside the England players for the national anthem before the game. Kieran was to do this wearing the brand new student designed Axholme Academy Rugby Kit, developed by Tobias Crow, Ryan Elviss, Jonny Gracey and Kieran himself and produced for us by Canterbury. On arrival at Twickenham we were welcomed into the Rose Suite wear Kieran met Billy Vunipola (England and Saracens Number 8) and Laura Wright who actually sings the national anthem on the pitch before England rugby matches. After a question and answer session with Billy and a rehearsal with Laura it was time for Mr Beesley and Mrs Hall to take their seats and await the arrival of Kieran and the England players onto the pitch. What an amazing experience it was. Kieran said; “it was so loud on the pitch for the anthem and was a truly fantastic experience to be out there with the England team before such an important match”. The noise at Twickenham was truly sensational and it was an interesting match with Italy adopting some strange tactics. England eventually ran out 36-15 winners after a nervy first period saw them 5-10 down at the interval. The Axholme Academy had their name in lights at half-time all around the Twickenham stadium as all of the new schools in The All Schools Rugby Programme were welcomed by having their names projected to thousands. Mr Beesley said; “The All Schools Rugby Programme has been great this year and this was the icing on the cake. Kieran is a great student with an appetite for Rugby and to be able to provide him this opportunity was brilliant. Although I will always be a footballer by heart, it has certainly opened my eyes more to Rugby and I know me and Mrs Hall also thoroughly enjoyed the day!”
