Newent Newsletter Local news and events from around the town Meeting of Giants
Sports Results & Reports
The meeting of two mascot giants took place recently in broad daylight and in full view of the crowds attending this year’s Onion Fayre.
Rugby
In case you missed it, and you probably did, here for the very first time, is a picture of the meeting of two of the worlds most famous mascots, locally anyway. Onion Ed was pleased to welcome the famous Pudsey Bear to the Fayre and after the photocall they went into a
9th November 209
short conference.
Although losing 9-22 to Bridgewater the team spirit in this young side is admirable and it might need a couple of games to bed in but they are the future and won’t let the club down.
Newent RFC v Bridgewater Despite losing the team’s captain Ross Webb and Fred Nottingham to serious injuries, the Green Army dug deep to produce a “do or die” performance at the Rec.
Little is known about that summit due to the lack of an interpreter and both declined to comment afterwards however sources said it is believed that they discussed the plans for the spectacular 25th anniversary of the Newent Onion Fayre next year.
Rugby correspondent Graham Loveridge
Newent Community School Remembers
The 20 strong choir of all women sopranos and altos was set up some 4 years ago and had over time experienced a little difficulty in ensuring there was sufficient music to perform with. Local Town Councillor Ruth Wadley, on behalf of the group, approached local
Newent Community and Sixth Form School performed their own annual Remembrance Service with the whole school of 1.000 students and staff congregating to show their respect in remembering the fallen.
County Councillor Will Windsor-Clive for assistance with the application for the funding of a new piano from the County Council’s 'Growing Community Fund’.
The tribute was led by the Right Reverend Simon Mason and school Vice Principal Rhys Phillips with the exhortation given by The Legion Branch Chairman Richard Balding.
and Chair Ann Birch, which was then followed by a short concert with the piano being played by the group's musician Tim Dexter.
The ceremony was further enhanced by a very professional rendering of the Last Post by school students Will Feeble and Ryan Dainty. Head Boy Max Farmer and Head Girl Nieve Mullins read out the names of those past school members who fell in the conflicts. They later dedicated the wreath donated by the Newent Branch of the British Legion to the fallen in a short ceremony in the hall. The whole school demonstrated exceptional respect when the one minute silence was held which was a great credit to the school.

Edited by Colin Thomas
The funding was subsequently granted and a new piano purchased by the group. In a short ceremony the piano was received by Choir Leader Martin Mason
New Piano For Cliffords Mesne Choir Funding from Gloucertershire County Council’s ‘Growing Community Fund’ has enabled the The Mesne Singers from Cliffords Mesne to purchase a new piano to enhance their choral events.
The Mesne Singers perform many local concerts each year. The next is on the 6th December at Cliffords Mesne Church at 7.30pm (£8.50 including programme and refreshments. Judging by the performance with the new piano it will be worth keeping an eye out for the concerts coming up soon in Cliffords Mesne and around the area.
