Kent Coast Theatre Whitstable has long been celebrated for its annual events and activities, plus a very vibrant live music scene and quirky visual arts. With the ever popular Oyster Festival, the historic Carnival, the fantastic Harbour Day and now Whit Lit, this town leads the way in Kent for creativity and culture. KCT, a new contemporary theatre company, based right here in Whitstable, aims to compliment and work alongside all these events and add to the unique fabric in this very eclectic town. Founded in July 2015 by Lou Fowkes and Alison Mead, KCT aims to champion new writing, challenge and re-work traditional plays, perform in interesting and non-theatre spaces, but above all, offer local actors the chance to perform in a professional environment, working to a high level of expertise, with advice, support and guidance. We are delighted to welcome as our Patron for KCT, Whitstable resident and acclaimed actor of theatre, film, TV and radio Raymond Coulthard. KCT ran its first Acting Course in the Autumn of 2015 at Whitstable Castle. The ten weeks covered theatre disciplines such as performance skills, text work, improvisation, physical and vocal techniques, character building and Commedia. The group of fifteen actors then presented selected scenes

www.communityad.co.uk from well-known plays at a Showcase Evening at The Horsebridge in front of an invited audience of friends and family. The reaction and response from the audience on the night was truly overwhelming and immensely positive. KCT will continue to offer these workshops throughout the year, in order to develop our actor’s technique in theatre performance. We will also link up with schools, colleges, groups and associations in the East Kent area to fully engage with the local community. We will provide a variety of plays with high production values, whilst giving our audiences diverse community led pieces, that will involve group work, building a close company willing to push the boundaries of community theatre at its best. We are delighted that The Horsebridge will be our ‘home’, as we feel it is the perfect place for KCT and thank them for their kind support. Our debut production for KCT, to be performed at The Horsebridge in July will be Animal Farm, written by George Orwell in 1945. Reflecting the events leading up to the Russian Revolution and then on into the Stalinist era of the Soviet Union, it is a challenging and thought-provoking piece of theatre. The Lord Mayor of Canterbury, Councillor Sally Waters attended the opening of the new theatre and said, “KCT is offering fantastic opportunities, not just for the local Whitstable community, but also for the wider community, including all people of all ages and abilities.” If you would like to get involved with KCT, please visit them online at www.kentcoasttheatre.co.uk, or search for Kent Coast Theatre on Facebook.

Her music is a fusion of jazz, folk and blues knitted together by poetic, streetwise lyricism. The Guardian’s jazz critique John Fordham describes Gillespie as ‘(joining) Bob Dylan’s lyrical bite and languid delivery to the forthrightness of Joni Mitchell, with a little rap-like percussiveness thrown in, she is an original.” Sarah’s band features James Maddren on drums, Ben Bastin on double bass and Mercury nominated pianist Kit Downes on piano and organ.

Small Group Tuition with Bright Young Things Growing classroom sizes and rigid curricula make it increasingly difficult for schools to ensure every child receives the education they need. For some, not enough time is spent on the basics, leading to a lack of solid foundations in core subjects. For others, the absence of a two-way conversation leads to a loss of verbal eloquence or, worse, a lack of interest.

Bright Young Things, 26 Watling St, Canterbury, CT1 2UD
Individualised learning is championed at sixth form and in further education, so why shouldn’t children benefit from the same level of academic support during their early informative years? Studies have shown that small group sessions enable interaction and maintain engagement, and with time to devote to each child, teachers can ensure that everyone has a solid grasp of the important principles. As limited government funding makes it near-impossible to implement changes in schools, tuition centres like Bright Young Things are stepping in to shore up the gaps and reignite children’s natural love of learning. By keeping class numbers down, tutors ensure that every child learns at the right speed and that they develop the confidence to think critically and independently. Bright Young Things Canterbury Tuition Centre offers high-quality supplementary education from 6 years right the way up to A Levels. As well as being experts in 11 plus exam preparation, we also run a daily Maths & English Members Club (ages 6 to 12), provide GCSE and A level tuition, and offer holiday workshops in creative writing, debating, problem solving and more. Importantly, we organise regular mock exams. Our courses aim to provide students with the tools to think independently and analytically. We encourage our students to aim high, help them discover their true potential, and work to maximise their exam success. Bright Young Things is open six days a week, Monday to Saturday, from 10.30am to 7.30pm. All our tutors are highly-experienced and DBS-checked. We are OFSTED registered and accept childcare vouchers. We offer free initial assessments with full analytical feedback, to map your child's current level and create a tailor-made programme to suit you.

The Amy Johnson Eight years ago, Jane Priston set out on a mission to bring the memory of aviation pioneer Amy Johnson back to life in her final resting place of Herne Bay.
a far off dream. However, after receiving a personal recommendation, Jane got in touch with artist Stephen Melton at Meltdowns Fine Art Production Studio in Ramsgate to discuss whether or not this dream could in fact become a reality.
This inspirational woman, who died serving her country in 1941, defied social expectations and became an icon of her time after her daring solo flight from London to Australia in a Gipsy Moth biplane in 1930 - just one year after being awarded her pilot’s licence.
She explained that she wanted a life-size Amy to stand among the crowd as a lasting tribute to her, to keep her memory alive. After some discussion, Jane realised that the bronze statue was no longer a dream; she had found a team with the skill and resources to bring her idea to life, and at this point she knew it was achievable, so she commissioned Meltdowns to begin the process of making the sculpture.
Jane Priston’s dream was to inspire a new generation by bringing the story of Amy Johnson back to Herne Bay, and in 2014 an information board about this great woman was unveiled on the seafront. But this was by no means the conclusion of the project…it had always been Jane’s ambition to install a bronze statue of Amy in Herne Bay, but she had always felt like this was nothing more than

Stephen Melton told me that the design process has very much been a collaborative effort. They are “continuing the ageless tradition of figurative sculpture, and we really found it important to depict her, not standing static like a monument to

Project a Royal, but actually physically moving and being dynamic, interacting with the environment, because that’s what Amy did”. He continued, “she was a go-getter, and the narrative that we wanted to employ was her interacting with the crowd and the environment, looking at the sky and assessing the conditions, making the decision as to whether, that day, she was going to fly or not”. It was very important to Jane that this was an interactive tribute to Amy so that a new generation could get up close to her and be inspired. The bronze will be embellished with quotes from Amy Johnson, and Jane told me that there may even be some hidden ones so that people have to really search and get up close to find them. “We didn’t want her to be elevated on a plinth like a god, but amongst the crowd, because that’s who she was; a middle class girl from the North who did exceptional things”. “Amy was a real people’s person, and she hated the celebrity side of what she did. She had to embrace that just to be able to fund what she wanted to do. She was a woman; she couldn’t fly for a job - it just wasn’t possible - so she had to play the game, but she detested that side of it. She just wanted to disappear in the crowd, so when Stephen and I started speaking, the first thing I knew was that I wanted her on the ground so that when Herne Bay is busy, she almost disappears”. The statue is currently at the maquette stage, but this will shortly be modelled into a full size clay sculpture, and then the final stage will be casting it into bronze. In order to get to this stage, Jane has worked hard to obtain funding which has largely been from members of the public and donations from local businesses. The project still requires some additional funding before the grand unveiling by HRH Prince Michael of Kent on 17th September, so if you would like to donate any amount, big or small, please contact Jane through www.amyjohnsonhernebay.com

Brush with the beaten egg. Form the remaining almond paste into 11 balls and arrange around the edge. Brush the balls with a little egg. ● Preheat the grill and place the cake under the grill to turn the paste lightly golden.

Whitstable Rugby Club Whitstable RFC is a friendly family oriented club which has good facilities for both club members or for hire to non members. There is a well stocked bar for members as well as a well furnished function room which is available for any type of function. The club was founded in 1981 and with help from Whitstable Town FC and Whitstable CC it flourished. It was able, with National Lottery funding, to move into to its current clubhouse, next to Sainsbury’s in Chestfield, in 1996. The Club runs teams for all ages, from Under 7s to adults, and welcomes new players of any age at any time. Non playing members, or Vice Presidents, are also welcome and there are four lunches a season where a good lunch can be enjoyed with like minded people, before watching a game to cheer the First Team on.
This season the club was successful in a bid to host a Nat West Rugby Club Ultimate Club Experience one of only six clubs in the country. With this came funding to equip the ball court with an artificial training surface, which is also suitable for 5 a-side football or netball. It also meant that there were visits from England and British Lions legends Richard Hill and Lee Mears; special moments in the club’s history. Currently the 1st XV are playing in Kent 2 and there are high hopes for promotion over the next two seasons. To this end, the club have appointed a new coach to oversee training which is held on Tuesday and Thursday evenings. The Mini, Midi and Junior Section is thriving. It trains or plays matches on a Sunday morning at which time the clubhouse is open and refreshments of all types are available for parents or carers wishing to stay to watch the children train or play. Boys and girls are equally welcome. All coaches are RFU qualified and police checked. For match details and any other information about the club please visit the club website at www.pitchero.com/clubs/whitstablerfc

Noteify the Band!
A five-piece function band formed late last year, Noteify is made up of frontwoman and manager Mazz Rhodes, guitarist Luke Martin, keys player and guitarist Dan Yates, bass player Jon Beetham and drummer Jamie Selby. Following on from her time with a few local function bands, Mazz decided to get a new band together after a short break away from music. She wanted to create a busy function band that not only has a talented selection of musicians but also an extensive set list that covers 50s to present day, multiple genres of music to entertain audiences of 8 through to 80 and beyond at Weddings, Corporate Events, Festivals and Special occasions. Mazz was at college when she met Jon, now Noteify’s fantastic bass player, who, in the daytime, runs music workshops for people with Dementia. Jon and Mazz then went to University together and this is where they met Jamie, Noteify’s talented drummer - Jamie has been in
many bands and has toured the USA, all whilst being a full time drum teacher. Looking for the final member they setup auditions only to realise between them that two of the musicians who attended the auditions, Dan and Luke, would work perfectly together and so Noteify became a five piece. Versatile musician Dan along with solid guitarist Luke slotted in neatly giving the band the sound and depth they were looking for. Months down the line, Noteify now have a polished set list and gigs lined up, and with their clever covers, big vocals and captivating performance they are set to take the Kent music scene by storm with Mazz at the helm. So if you’re looking for a band for any occasions or want to know more about Noteify check them out online at www.noteifytheband.co.uk or ‘Like’ them on Facebook at www.facebook.com/ noteifytheband …or better still, why not come to one of their up-and-coming gigs to hear a songs by Black Cherry, U2, Pharrell Williams, OneRepublic and Kenny Loggins to name a few.

“Go outside. Remain” Nick Offerman
One: Get your tools in order
Everyone needs the tools of their trade. My big five for the garden are fork, spade, hoe, rake, and trowel. A good pair of gloves are a must and a decent pair of secateurs will be at home in your pocket. A wheelbarrow completes the rock star look.
A wise man once said go outdoors and remain there. There might still be a chill in the air but days are getting longer and the galanthus are in bloom – it’s the perfect time to prep the garden. Here are some beginner tips to get you started at this time of year.
Two: Compost
One of the first things you want to establish is a compost heap. This can begin as simply a sunny corner in the garden where you put your vegetable scraps but you’ll soon want a container of sorts. There are numerous ones available on the market but it’s an easy job (and fun) to construct one from scrap timber or pallets, old tyres, bricks or wire mesh. A quick search online will yield countless tutorials; ignore them all and make up your own design. Avoid placing the heap on concrete, patio slabs or tarmac. You want a site on bare soil so worms and other creatures can colonise, they help mix the compost. When adding ingredients include a healthy mix of green (vegetable peelings, fruit waste, tea bags, plant prunings, grass cuttings etc.) and brown (cardboard egg boxes, scrunched up paper, small twigs etc.) waste. Do not add meat or cooked food waste, this attracts rats, and avoid citrus. Some egg shells provide good minerals though!

Three: Prepare the ground
In other words: weeding. Dig out tired old shrubs and weeds, especially perennials (thistle, nettle, bindweed etc.) Try to remove all parts of the roots, but don’t be over hasty. My grandfather would tell me a garden would only ever be finished if there was nothing left to take out. Use a fork to turn the soil over, hoe and then rake. Then bask in satisfaction. At this time of year if you’re not going to plant anything for another week or two then it helps to lay some old carpet over your freshly turned soil. This prevents new weeds from getting any sunlight and helps warm the ground.

Four: Sow
A simple way to start planting is sow some herb seeds in small pots with fresh compost and sit them inside by a window with plenty of light. Water regularly but don’t drown them. Basil, parsley and thyme are all pretty easy to look after and don’t take long to grow. If you also grow tomatoes this year some basil will taste great with them.
Five: Sit
Another tip from my grandfather: when the work is complete don’t forget to sit in the garden; it’s important to enjoy the space you’ve created. If the nights are a little chilly, grab some blankets, get a fire pit on the go, cuddle up and crack open a bottle of the parsley wine you’ve had brewing in the shed since last year. You didn’t think we were sowing herbs for a salad now did you! By Stewart McClelland
