The weather’s changing! Here’s an Autumnal scene of Spring Gardens, Buxton.
Little Green Space With the days becoming shorter, and cooler weather just around the corner, many of us will be thinking about how to keep our homes warm and cosy during the autumn and winter months. Heating a house can be costly, but there are lots of ways you can keep fuel bills down – and make your home more environmentally friendly, too. Renovating your home to make it more energy efficient may seem like an expensive prospect – but there are plenty of steps that don’t cost a thing, and even larger projects can pay for themselves and save extra money in the long term. It’s worth bearing in mind, too, that many environmentally friendly home improvements – such as insulating a loft or fitting solar panels – are eligible
for grants. Check out the Energy Saving Trust (www.energysavingtrust.org .uk), 0300 123 1234, for information. Here are some ideas on how to reduce your household carbon emissions and save money too. Insulation Insulating your home to retain heat should be a priority. Loft and cavity wall insulation is not very expensive and is the single most important thing you can do to conserve energy. Insulating your home will cut your carbon footprint too. A 24cm layer can save around 1.5 tonnes of carbon emissions every year – about the same as a transAtlantic flight. Front and back doors can also be a major source of heat loss, with warmth lost through door edges, letterboxes and keyholes, or through glass or thin wood

panels. You could fit a heavy curtain over the door, a draft strip on the bottom of the doors and brush seals on your letterbox. Hanging thermal curtains, or lining existing curtains with thermal lining, can reduce heat loss through windows. Electricity Use Turning lights off when you leave a room is an obvious way to save electricity but did you know that leaving appliances like televisions on standby consumes almost as much energy as keeping them on? Even when not on standby and actually turned off, computers and appliances like washing machines can sneakily gobble electricity, using five watts or more simply by being plugged in at the wall. Built-in clocks on appliances such as microwaves and ovens can use up to 20 watts. So turn off at the plug, not just at the appliance switch. When buying new appliances, try to choose A+ rated freezers, washing machines and tumbler dryers. Although these cost a little more to buy, they use less energy and are therefore cheaper to run – so the annual savings quickly add up. Also be sure to keep appliances running efficiently. Defrost freezers regularly and check for damaged door seals. Thawing food overnight in
the fridge, rather than on the kitchen counter, helps keep the fridge cold while the food is defrosting. Keep the freezer full, as halfempty freezers cost more to run than full ones. And try not to open the fridge or freezer door – or leave the door open – more often than necessary, as this reduces efficiency. A few more ideas to save electricity: wash clothes at 30C, which uses up to 40 per cent less energy than washing at higher temperatures; when using an electric kettle only boil the amount of water required; and use a microwave oven, breadmaking machine or slow cooker to cook food – all use less power than a conventional oven.

TUESDAY KNIT AND NATTER GROUP
Help With Poppy Wreath
A call from the magazine Woman’s Weekly for help to attach poppies to a wreath to commemorate those who died in WW1 was a request that could not be ignored. Readers had been asked to donate handmade poppies and Hobbycraft kindly donated the wreaths. The next stage was to put them together. A group of ladies from the Tuesday Knit and Natter group, held at the Compleat Knit in Matlock, were keen to get involved. We were amazed to see so many varieties of Poppy some knitted, others crocheted, one made of felt and decorated with tiny beads. All were reverently atttached whilst memories of relatives who had fought in WW1 were recalled. The completed wreath
was taken to Crich Stand Memorial (Sherwood

Rowsley and District WI enjoyed a delightfully extravagant summer outing on the 4th August with the truly fabulous Notty Hornblower at her marvellous Costume Museum at Alstonefield. We were charmed by the fantastic setting amongst rolling hills just outside Ashbourne and whisked into the past of period outfits, with servant quarters decked out with authentic kitchenalia. Upstairs to a little black dress display our band could see ourselves decked out in this collection - and then dresses, hats and shoes in keeping with ‘Call the Midwife’. Enchanting memories of Laura Ashley ranges from the 1970s, a suitably striking homage to the Suffragettes chained to railings in yet another

Notty gave us an excellent talk on her amazing collection with anecdotes of the people that made the exhibits possible. We were already feeling suitably spoilt when we headed to the charming tearooms for a delectable afternoon tea, with proper cups and saucers (it does taste better in fine china) and scones the size of our heads.

Preparations are well under way for a unique theatre and community event to be held in Wirksworth this autumn. Earlier in the year, with the centenary of World War One approaching, former mayor Andy Pollock called together a number of interested Wirksworth townspeople to discuss the ways in which the part played in the conflict by local residents might be commemorated. This led to local resident Graham Sellors, a former television producer and award-winning playwright, creating a new theatrical work called ‘Gorsey Bank To Gommecourt’. Gorsey Bank is a neighbourhood of Wirksworth and Gommecourt the site of ferocious fighting in northern France The play tells the story of two young quarry workers who join up at the start of WW1. It depicts events they encounter at the Front and the experiences of their families and loved ones at home. Although the two young men are fictitious characters, real events and locations are drawn on throughout and give the production a highly distinctive and realistic feel. When researching the play, for example, Graham read the full set of Urban District Council minutes and many local parish magazines and extracts from these are included in the piece. Casting has now taken place under the direction of local husband and wife team, Mike and Helen Knott. In addition to Helen’s wide experience of acting, from Shakespeare’s plays through to dance and musicals, Mike has been responsible for a range of theatre productions including primary and secondary school plays and adult amateur dramatics. Most recently he directed the hugely successful ‘Dark of the Moon’ at Wirksworth Town Hall in April this year. The directors have been able to draw on a wealth of artistic talent within the town to create a unique and ambitious event. Young actors from Anthony Gell School will take leading roles alongside older townspeople. Singersongwriters have penned and will perform tailormade compositions alongside other musicians, including a five-piece brass band. Local dancers will add to the variety and impact of the piece, as will filmed interviews with residents recounting memories of the war handed down to them through their families. The 80 names on the Wirksworth war memorial are the foundation for many of the stories told and will be honoured throughout the play. Although initially local in its focus, the play presents a rounded picture by moving out to include the experiences of German soldiers and of conscientious objectors. Despite the huge horror and tragedy of World War One, ‘Gorsey Bank to Gommecourt’ manages to be an ultimately uplifting play by demonstrating the bravery, resilience, humour and love exhibited by so many who lived through those terrible times.

POPULAR TUG O’ WAR EVENT PULLS IN THE CROWDS
Birchover Carnival Committee hosted a fun Tug o’ War event over the August Bank Holiday to raise funds for Birchover Carnival 2015. Six teams took part, taking turns to pull (best out of three) against each other and points were awarded for winning pulls. The results were as follows: Swell Heads 5 Craggy Island 4 Barn Farm 3 Mad Hatters 2 Cheers 1 Shrunken Heads 0 The award winning Barn Farm Campsite in Birchover proved a picturesque setting for the family fun event and there was a great holiday atmosphere with various stalls and games being well supported by the crowds enjoying a bank holiday break in the beautiful Peak District. The cheering crowds encouraged and supported the teams, who enthusiastically gave it their all, hoping to win first prize. Teams consisted of 5 members, with a mixture of families and friends joining in the fun and eager to win. After much sweat and tears, there were two teams at the top of the Leader Board, with the final between Swell Heads and Craggy Island. After two more pulls in

BAKEWELL U3A PRESENTS
“FLORENCE NIGHTINGALE, HER LIFE AND LEGACY” A lot of readers of the Peak Advertiser will have become familiar with our regular U3A Meg Laird talks, and may have attended some of these lively and interesting events, which also give retired and semi-retired people an opportunity to learn more about the University of the Third Age and its activities in Bakewell and surrounding area, and to meet U3A members. Our next talk will be on Tuesday, 30 September at 2pm in the Medway Centre when Pat Smedley will talk on “Florence Nightingale her life and legacy”. Pat trained as a history teacher and as a nurse at the Nightingale Training School at St Thomas Hospital in London. She qualified as a Nightingale Nurse there and has also been a volunteer tour guide at the Florence Nightingale Museum in London. She is well qualified to deliver an interesting and informative talk on her subject of Florence, who was a local girl - her father inherited Lea Hurst, where she was brought up. A young and affluent woman, she nevertheless rebelled against her family’s and society’s expectations and worked hard to educate herself in the art and science of nursing. She established the first nursing school in the world, at St Thomas’ Hospital. Book the date now, come along to this talk by Pat, and learn much more from her about this remarkable woman.
wooden bird boxes, hand knitted items, home grown plants, chutneys and much much more. By the end of the week the committee of Sarah and Kate Brocklehurst, John and Jan Gibson, Ann Ashcroft and Sarah Winkworth-Smith were delighted to have raised £450 which was divided equally between the Helen’s Trust and the Church. The bonus of the event was discovering how much creative talent there is in our village. Helen’s Trust is a local charity which does vital work supporting people with terminal illness who want to stay in the comfort and security of their own homes. They are always grateful to receive any help. You can contact them on 01629 812759.

T NUTT & SONS ATTAIN
Which? Trusted Trader Status Clay Cross based carpet retailer T Nutt & Sons has recently been granted Which? Trusted Trader status. The Which? Trusted Trader scheme only awards this certification to the very best businesses, who maintain the highest professional standards. Managing Director David Nutt said, “We are extremely proud of being Which? Trusted Traders. The award means that our business has been vetted rigorously and gained full endorsement. Although we have been trading for over 145 years, it is still rewarding to receive recognition for our on-going efforts. It is also further reassurance to our evergrowing band of loyal customers that we are still attaining the same level of excellence.” The vetting process for the award is exhaustive and entails a visit from a professionally-qualified assessor, who undertakes a thorough scrutiny of the business and its methods,
ethics and procedures. This involves a credit check and
randomised customer reference checks, as well as
an examination of the administrative p r o c e s s e s , documentation and complaints procedures. The Which? Trusted Trader scheme really is looking for the best craftsmen and businesses out there. The exacting assessment process, moderated reviews and a partnership with the well-respected and impartial Ombudsmen Services makes for a trader endorsement scheme you can be completely confident about.
HIGH FLYERS AT CROMFORD WI
At the September meeting of Cromford WI, William Boyce gave an illustrated history of the Red Arrows, after 50 years of thrilling displays in 52 countries. We saw some wonderful photographs, dating from soon after the First World War, when earlier formations gave displays at airfields, right up to the present day. The strict formations include flying at only 6 ft apart from wing tip to wing tip, as well as flying in
formation with Concorde and with the Lancaster bomber. Like the former Royal Yacht Britannia, the Red Arrows give a wonderful assistance in winning export orders. The competition “Make Something Red” was won by Trina Johnstone with her delightful “Red Sparrow”, second was a bag made by Janet Chambers, and third was a waistcoat made by Judith Hamilton.

LITTON, BAROQUE MUSIC, GAZA An Unusual Combination the extremely sad situation of those living in the area of Gaza. I need not elaborate on this matter. Upon viewing the images, and reading the articles posted by the media and social websites, it seems very obvious where support is most urgently needed, and so the International Red Cross will be the recipient of this Autumn’s concert proceeds. Baroque Music On this occasion I am delighted to invite the baroque duo of Lara James (Violin) and Katharine May (Harpsichord) to take part. They are well known locally for the beautiful recitals that take place each year in St Anne’s Church in Baslow,

Litton In 2012 I had the privilege of performing a baroque recital in memory of Anne Atkinson, Derbyshire’s Poet Laureate 2009 – 2011, organised by Rosie Ford of Litton. Proceeds from the concert were donated to the Derbyshire-based Helen’s Trust. The concert was attended by an incredibly generous audience, and took place in the beautiful setting of Christ Church in Litton. I was extremely struck by the unique feeling of the village, intimate community, the church itself and its visual surroundings. This combination of factors made it seem the perfect place to celebrate people and music, with a stunning acoustic and atmosphere in addition. I immediately felt drawn towards creating more music in this wonderful place. Gaza Fundraising, being an integral part of the process,

ANIMAL SERVICE 21st September The annual Animal Service will take place at Saint Giles Church, Matlock, at 4pm on Sunday 21st September. This has now been taking place for eleven years and has become an enjoyable and meaningful part of parish life. Children are welcome to bring their pets along. If they don’t have an animal of their own, you could encourage them to bring a cuddly toy as a symbol of the wider creation. During the service, the animals can come up for a blessing. If you have a photograph of a departed pet that you would like to remember especially, please bring it to the service and do bring it up for a blessing. At the Animal Service “we pray for the vast variety of creatures with whom we share this world, ask that they may be protected from cruelty, determine to always treat them with kindness and respect, and give thanks for our own pet animals,” says Fr. Mark. For more information, visit www.stgilesmatlock.co.uk.

was of vital importance to the prospect of any future concerts, along with providing the audience with an evening of intimate sound. The notion of music, written hundreds of years ago in some cases, contributing towards the aid of people now is extremely powerful. The intention is to cover the expenses of the venue and musicians, with all remaining proceeds going to charity. A date in October has been set.

LIVE MUSIC IN THE DALES AURORA WIND QUINTET Matlock Music’s 2014-15 season begins on 26th September with a concert given by the Aurora Wind Quintet. The quintet- Maxine Willis (flute), Gwenllian Davis (oboe), Helen Shillito (horn), Stuart Russell (bassoon) and Sara Thurlow (clarinet), all prize-winning soloists in their own right, will perform an eclectic and varied programme as befits the flexibility of such a combination of instruments. They will begin with a performance of Ibert’s skittishly humorous Trois Pieces Breves, followed by James Macmillan’s lyrically expressive ‘Untold’ based on a traditional Irish love song. The first half will finish with the Quintet in Eflat by Reicha, a contemporary and friend of Beethoven.
The second half begins with Malcol Arnolds witty and boisterous Three Shanties. Listen for the various stages of intoxication of the sailor in the opening movement. Then the 20th century French composer, Pierne’s Pastoral will be followed by 6
Bagatelles by Ligetti, whose music was famously used in the soundtrack of the film, 2001 A Space Odyssey. The evening will conclude with
some movements from William Walton’s wickedly surreal Facade. Do come and join us at what promises to be a wonderful evening of music-making. The concert is on 26th September at the Wheeldon Hall, Highfields School, Lumsdale, off the Chesterfield Road, Matlock, DE4 5NA starting at 7.30pm. Tickets are available at the door before the concert at £10. Under 18s, students and registered jobseekers pay half-price. All seats are unreserved. There is ample parking at the school.

Heating and hot water Turning down your central heating thermostat by just one degree can reduce your annual heating bill by up to 10 per cent. Many health experts recommend a room temperature of 18-21C, which should be comfortable for most people. However, it is important to remember that some people, including the elderly and young children, need to keep warmer than others – so bear this in mind when turning your thermostat up or down. If you have thermostatic valves on your radiators, you can turn them down or off in low-use rooms, saving even more money and energy. You can also set the heating to switch off 60 minutes before you leave the house, as radiators will continue to generate heat for about an hour after being turned off. Fitting a modern condensing boiler could also lead to major savings. Some people claim that they have reduced their gas bill by about 25 per cent by installing a condensing boiler. Renewable Energy Fitting solar panels may seem like an expensive project, but with government-backed incentive schemes such as the Feed-In Tariff, they can actually earn you an income.
Little Green Space
CONTINUED
There are two types of solar panel: solar photovoltaics (PV), which generate electricity, and solar thermal, which produce hot water.
Solar PV panels have become much cheaper to install in recent years, and because they use sunlight to generate free electricity they can significantly cut
your electricity bills. You can also take advantage of the government’s Feed-In Tariff (www.fitariffs.co.uk), and sell surplus energy back to the grid – in fact
you’ll be paid for every kilowatt you produce, even if you use the electricity yourself. And Feed-In Tariff payments are tax-free.
Solar thermal panels – like solar PV – can save you pounds, especially if you are planning to stay in your house for a long time. It doesn’t need to be a glorious sunny day for the panels to heat up your bath water – they work pretty well even in overcast conditions. But, of course, on glorious sunny days you will have a tank full of lovely, piping hot water – all free. Another reason to smile when the sun shines! New installations of solar thermal panels – along with environmentally friendly heating systems such as ground source heat pumps and biomass boilers – are eligible for a new government scheme, introduced earlier this year. The Renewable Heat I n c e n t i v e (www.rhincentive.co.uk) works in the same way as the Feed-In Tariff, paying a set amount for each unit of heat generated. For more information about renewable energy systems such as solar panels and biomass boilers, and how they could save you money and cut your carbon footprint, visit www.therenewableshop.com

MIDDLETON’S FIRST OPEN GARDEN EVENT “Better Than The Chelsea Flower Show?”
The sun shone, the village looked fantastic and visitors flocked to the first open garden event organised by the Middleton Environment Group. Over 230 visitors from as far away as Sheffield, Lincoln and Oxfordshire attempted to visit the 31 venues, but many were just so blown away by the village and the variety of gardens on show that they said they needed to come back next year – and for two days.

We can only cite some of the 100% positive compliments paid to our lovely village – here are some: “The views! The views! The views!” “I drive through Middleton every day, but didn’t know it was like this. Absolutely lovely”. “I want to move here. It seems such an amazing village”. “Not stripy lawns. It’s proper gardens”. “I can’t believe it’s so
peaceful., even so close to the road”. “I regularly do the route from Carsington to Matlock but have never turned left at the crossroads. What a fabulous village!”. “I love all the yards with dry stone walls and what grows in them.” Many, many visitors commented on how friendly and welcoming everyone in the village is, so we would like to thank all the Middletonians for contributing to the
weekend’s success. The Environment Group has already decided to host a “Middleton Open Gardens 2015”. It will be on the weekend of June 20th/ 21st, so all you potential open gardeners put the dates into your diaries NOW. To ensure that next year’s event will be even better, The Environment Group would like to hear comments and suggestions how and what we can further improve. You can leave them at the Nelson or email them to
wiesehofer@btinternet.com . Or you could let Ann Stamper, our secretary, know. We would also like to know of any projects that you feel should be supported by the Group, remembering that our aims are ‘to help improve our environment and to raise awareness, knowledge and appreciation of our environment’ And yes, an old Chelsea and Hampton Court buff really did say that it was better than the Chelsea Flower Show.

Sir Matthew unveils the commemorative plaque Four-time Olympic gold medallist rower Sir Matthew Pinsent formally opened the newly refurbished MultiUser Games Area (MUGA) at Baslow Sports Field on 30 August 2014. The refurbishment follows an impressive £30,000 grant awarded by Sport England to improve local sports facilities. The area, already used regularly by local sports clubs including tennis, football and netball is at least twenty years old and was more than ready for development to bring it up to the high standards demanded by today’s amateur sportsmen and women. The grant helped to upgrade the present facilities to a much higher

partners. The Baslow project forms part of £400m invested nationally by Sport England. Sir Matthew said: “I am delighted to visit Baslow to take a look at the facilities and see what the team there are doing to encourage people of all ages to get involved in sport. For me this is where it all starts; relatively small schemes growing young people into potential Olympians of the future. It is testimony to the Olympic legacy that much needed funds are available for big and small projects alike and sport is playing a major, and very positive part in people’s lives”. Peter Holt is Chairman of Baslow Sports Field Trust: “The impact of refurbishing our MUGA will mean that local clubs will continue to enjoy using top quality, high specification and safe facilities. “It will also mean that we can grow participation in sport, widening opportunities in a variety of sports including tennis, soccer and ladies’ netball

The evening will consist of 2 one act comedies. In ‘Meat and Two Veg’ Margaret and Arthur, a retired couple, are preparing dinner for their neighbour, Albert, whose wife, Enid, left him abruptly two months ago. This lighthearted comedy takes a darker turn when Arthur, aware that Albert has an eye for Margaret, suggests their

LAUNCH OF ‘DEMENTIA Ashmere Derbyshire has launched a free advice service to support friends and family of people suffering with dementia.

provides points of contact. Friends and family can read more about dementia and caring for someone with the condition. The key points of the new service are simple free practical advice and request a call back telephone service which will offer help with specific issues. Jeremy Hughes, chief
executive of The Alzheimer’s Society said: ‘One in three people over the age of 65 will develop dementia. Everyone has a role to play. We can all understand a bit more about what it is like to live with dementia, and the small things that help those with the condition.’ Society Ambassador, Ruth Langsford said:

‘When we found out that my father had dementia, we didn’t know anything about the condition. Because of the new online networks I actually feel more supported.’ Background Ashmere Care Homes is a family run business spanning over 25 years. Starting in 1984 with just one Care Home, they have continued to grow by looking to create a home from home for their residents. They were awarded winners of the Great East Midlands Care Awards 2013. The current system of accessing support in Derbyshire for those people dealing with loved ones with early onset dementia can be confusing and slow to get. The new ‘Dementia Derbyshire’ service aims to provide better and quicker support to families suffering with dementia who find themselves at crisis point.

WALKING FOR HEALTH IN YOULGRAVE A Date For Your Diary - Tuesday 23 September 2014
Are you interested in getting active again? Would you like to join a local walking group in the village? Then why not come along to the new ‘Walking for Health’ group that is being established in the village in September. The first walk is scheduled for Tuesday 23 September 2014 and we will be meeting at Coldwell End car park at 10.30am so please if you are interested come along and join the group. Initially, we are planning to walk in the Youlgrave area on the second and fourth Tuesday morning of each month. Think about it… your legs were made for walking. It’s a wonderful form of exercise that can keep you healthy, living longer, make new friends and even put a smile on your face. Walking as part of a group is a good way to start and you will find that everyone encourages each other to keep going. There are some beautiful walks in the area, you may discover new ones that you did not know about. Our aim will be to provide walks to suit different levels of fitness.
We are starting the walks in Youlgrave but the idea is to open them up to anyone from Stanton and Birchover who may be interested in joining as we will run walks from those villages in the future. What you can expect Trained walk leaders, good company, safe routes to walk with shorter walks for beginners. All our walks are free and the pace is set by
the walkers themselves. It’s perfect for people who don’t fancy intense exercise you can start off slowly and build up gradually till you feel more confident. Please wear some good comfortable shoes and taking weather conditions into account you may need a waterproof or ‘brolly’. Also bring some change just in case we stop off for a ‘cuppa’ either ‘en route’ or
afterwards. If you would like more information please contact:Pete Tapping 07752 463918. For further details about Walking for Health across the Derbyshire Dales contact Howard Griffith: Walking for Health Officer: email howard.griffith@ derbyshiredales.gov.uk or tel. 01629 761194 or visit www.derbyshiredales.gov.uk /walkingforhealth

Greenaway Workshop in Darley Dale are looking forward to a busy year, as an allotment at Old Road, Darley Dale has been allocated to them by Darley Dale Town Council. Councillor John Evans handed over the keys of the potting shed, to an eager group of workshop members one sunny afternoon in August. He was hugely impressed at how well the allotments are kept, and has promised to keep an eye on how well Greenaway members keep up the good work. Greenaway was set up to enable people who have ongoing, long term health conditions to have a place to go to do work.

Ten children from an area of Belarus affected by the 1986 Chernobyl nuclear disaster were guests of The Friends of the Cromford Canal aboard narrow boat Birdswood on Friday 1st August. The lively group of ten- to twelve-year-olds, their teacher/translator and their host families and helpers had a great time on the boat despite heavy rain. The children's four-week visit is being hosted by the Bonsall and Derbyshire Dales branch of Chernobyl Children's Life Line. This well-established charity has over 130 groups nationwide which between them bring 3,000 to 4,000 children to the UK for health recuperation holidays every year. Over two million people 400,000 of them children live in areas of the Ukraine and Belarus north of Kiev that are still heavily contaminated by radioactive fallout from the 1986 reactor melt-down. One of the main health benefits of these visits is a boost to the children's immune systems which have been damaged by the radiation. Clean food and fresh air help reduce radiation levels in their bloodstream by up to 80%. The experiences the children have from visiting countries like ours can be life-changing for them and often for the host families as well. In many cases, parents can see a real change to their children's outlook on life, personality, self confidence and their achievements at school.

A winning draw and a somewhat fortuitous victory saw Bakewell Cricket Club secure promotion from Division 3 of the Yorkshire & Derbyshire League with one match to spare. The draw was against Whittington Wanderers (match sponsors John Stubbs Sports of Ashbourne) when Bakewell scored 147-9 with Lee Tann(39) and Roy Peach (38) the leading scorers. In reply the home team could muster only 123-7 with Dave Hadfield taking 3-15. Walkley were the unwitting victims that saw Bakewell achieve promotion when they were dismissed for just 87. Mick Clark, Richard Reed and Dave Hadfield each taking 3 wickets. Even this small total seemed beyond Bakewell at many stages of their innings as they struggled against the bowling of Daniel Birch who took 6-34. Eventually the visitors reached 90-8 and both the win and promotion were theirs.

on the villages of the Derbyshire Dales and the people who lived there. How did they live through an upheaval that lasted four long years, took so many lives and
then changed the world forever? Ordinary people like Horace Johnson, born in Youlgrave, who fought at Gallipoli, who never spoke
about his experiences until he was persuaded to write about it at the end of his life. And Vera Brittain from Buxton, whose life at Oxford University was interrupted by the war, a conflict that robbed her of a fiance and a brother. It is the story of the men of the Notts and Derby Regiment - the Sherwood Foresters - which so many Peak District men joined in 1914. Performed by Peak District-based Cotton Grass Theatre, it is a moving story of love, loss, patriotism and great bravery, told with music, reminiscences and the poets of the War: Siegfried Sassoon, Wilfred Owen and others.
A small team of expert craftsmen, led by a national, award-winning designer, work directly with the customer, cutting out all unnecessary overheads and costs, which usually inflate the price. It’s a fact that most customers assume that genuinely handmade bespoke
real wood furniture of our exceptional quality would simply be too expensive. A recent survey showed that many of the ‘standard chipboard ordinary’ kitchen suppliers, with their glossy brochures, commission based salesmen and huge overheads, were more expensive than Allwood.
Why have ‘ordinary’ when you can have the ‘WOW factor’ for the same price or less? For a stunning real wood, genuinely handmade kitchen, built to your own requirements give us a try. With our no obligation quote / design you might be surprised at what you can afford! 0800 731 7351.

THE MATLOCK FORUM CLUB On Tuesday 2 September 2014 Matlock Forum Club held the last of its Summer monthly meetings when chairman Jim Pocklington talked on what he described as “ A Life on the Ocean Waves�. Jim took his audience back to his years in the Navy starting with the time when, at the age of 16 and a half, he enlisted as a Boy Seamen and went on to a wide ranging and very varied service during World War Two. By his ability, based on personal experience, to describe incidents in the various theatres of war in which he served Jim was able to convey to his listeners , through a series of anecdotes, mainly humorous and occasionally serious, a sense of what it was really like to be a member of

a warship’s crew. Jim progressed steadily through the ranks and had a variety of duties and finally became a petty officer. With the help of a large map the audience were able to trace Jim’s various routes and to realise that it could take as long as four months for mail to reach a vessel which was continuously moving from port to port. Particularly vivid was Jim’s description of being at sea and passing through the eye of a hurricane. Members were reminded that the next meeting marking the beginning of the Autumn programme of weekly gatherings would be held on Tuesday 7 October 2014 when Mr and Mrs Henderson would talk on “The Latest on the Gambia Clinic�

WHAT CAN A BIRKDALE EDUCATION OFFER YOUR SON?
Birkdale is a school designed for boys and is the only school in Sheffield specialising in quality education for boys aged 4 16. Our thriving coeducational Sixth Form provides a balance when it matters most, preparing pupils for further education. Exam results are a headline measure of a school’s success. Birkdale is no exception. In 2014 one third of GCSE exam entries achieved A* grade and 60% were A*or A grade. A level pass rate was 100% for those going on to university and 70% of all the exam entries resulted in A* to B grade. Nearly all students go on to leading universities. However, there is so much more to an independent education at Birkdale School. •Opportunities for learning - Small classes, expert teaching and individual attention allow our students
to learn effectively and achieve highly. We actively promote intellectual curiosity, learning for the love of it. •Pastoral care is excellent at Birkdale, offering a happy, caring and supportive environment
with friendly staff, pupil and parent relationships. Birkdale places great emphasis on encouraging high standards of behaviour, thought and care for others, which stems from our Christian ethos. We believe that such care is the key to
our pupils becoming successful, balanced and well-rounded young adults. •Extra-curricular activities A huge range of sport, music, drama and academic societies and outdoor pursuits nurture individual talents and enrich our pupils’ lives and provide opportunities to develop new skills. Birkdale School is investing in the future. There is a £2 million investment in Birkdale Prep School, with the acquisition and redevelopment of nearby Belmayne House. The Pre-Prep (Infant) department will move into Belmayne House in September 2014 and will benefit from exciting new facilities. Come along to one of our open events or arrange a personal tour of the school to see for yourself what is unique about Birkdale School. Tel: 0114 266 8409.

A week back into the school year and S. Anselm’s is already running at full speed and eagerly anticipating the opening of its new library. As the only independent coeducational preparatory school in Derbyshire, S. Anselm’s prides itself on preparing its pupils for a wide variety of settings at their next schools, regularly winning a range of awards for art, sport and music as well as academic scholarships. Over £100, 000 has been invested in new technology with the rollout of wireless interactive technology and introduction of tablets throughout the school, including the pre-prep. However the key is to combine the best of old and new, so handwriting and
reading books are still crucial skills for all pupils. Most children choose to board in their final 2 years, even if they have been day children before. Although weekly boarding is an option most children prefer to stay for Sunday activities to be joined by their parents for the chapel service and delicious roast on Sunday evenings. With superlative sports facilities in the 18 acre Peak District campus and sport on every day of the week children also benefit from the dedicated music school, drama and art lessons. Extra activities such as fly fishing and karate are on offer and all pupils go on trips locally and nationally to theatres, art galleries and museums. We offer a warm welcome
to anyone wishing to know more about S. Anselm’s and have an Open Day on Friday

craft, dance fit, drama, embroidery, gymnastics, ICT, choir, netball and various music clubs.

DICTIONARIES FOR CHILDREN
Final year students at seven Matlock Junior Schools were given a dictionary at the end of the school term. Past President Cynthia Machent and Diane Blount, Chair of Community Services were given the pleasant responsibility of presenting a total of one hundred and fifty six Rotary dictionaries to junior students at, All Saints, Darley Dale, Castle View, Churchtown, Matlock Bath, St Giles and St Josephs Schools. The dictionaries are part of the worldwide Rotary International initiative to improve literacy and numeracy throughout the world. Past President Cynthia said after the presentations that
she was delighted at the reception given to her and Rotarian Diane by the teaching staff and pupils at the schools. She said “Books still have a place in this internet age and these excellent Osborne Illustrated Dictionaries were well received by the students. You can open them at any page and find something new or use them in the conventional way and get a clear definition and spelling. I am sure that the students will treasure these for a long time to come�. Matlock Rotarians would like to thank the people of Matlock and Derbyshire Dales whose support make these valuable donations possible.

HOPE VALLEY COLLEGE
HOPE VALLEY COLLEGE
A High Performing Specialist School and Academy
We offer students a positive and supportive school environment where academic success is underpinned by strong and sensitive pastoral care, a diverse variety of trips and extra-curricular events and a strong passion to developing leadership in students. Our students come from a wide geographical area and go on to many different Post 16 destinations. We equip our students with the skills they need to choose academic or vocational pathways that are right for them and they tell us that they feel ready and prepared for the next phase in their education. For a small number of students we formally begin life as an 11-18 school this September, having successfully trialled this provision over the last two years. WHY CHOOSE HOPE VALLEY COLLEGE? Strong academic results. In 2013 the College was near the top of the Derbyshire GCSE performance tables on almost every measure.
We are a smaller than average rural community college offering a high quality, inclusive and wide ranging academic curriculum. Over a third of our eligible students gained the English Baccalaureate in 2013. All students benefit from excellent pastoral support. Our first class extra-curricular programme features team and individual sport, music and many other performing arts opportunities. The residential visit programme has recently included visits to Kenya, Germany, Poland, Denmark, Spain, France and a range of UK locations. We value our location and ensure our students are routinely involved in outdoor activities. We benefit from a state of the art purpose-built music facility, a climbing and traverse wall, and an onsite mountain bike track. We have now formally become an 11-18 College. Our Post 16 Pathways provision, for students with a statement of additional needs, will be located within brand new purpose-built accommodation.
We offer purely academic subjects for those who wish, but also many vocational subjects to cater for all our students. In 2014 60% of our students gained an A/A* in at least one subject, and progress measures in both English and Maths were once again amongst the best in Derbyshire. A fantastic range of extracurricular activities. Trips abroad in the last year have

What a year it has been for Westbourne School – as they announce another new addition to their expanding range of facilities. Seven new classrooms for both Senior and Junior School children will be in use by the end of the year after Westbourne acquired a neighbouring building. “This is an exciting time for the Westbourne community,” said Headmaster John Hicks. “We are delighted that our reputation continues to grow and that we are having to expand to meet a rising demand for places.
“We are receiving record numbers of enquiries from families both in Sheffield and the Peak District and this new development will enable us to meet those requests more successfully.” The new block comes hot on the heels of a very successful first year of Westbourne’s Pre-School for children aged three to four. The valuable new service has been so well received that several sessions are already full, with places booked for 2015. Nestled on the edge of the Peak District in the

Excellent exam results year on year, and a highly successful alumni prove how effective Westbourne’s approach to teaching is. The co-ed environment in which Westbourne children learn cements the
close-knit family atmosphere that the school promotes. By learning, playing and developing together boys and girls are able to support one another and grow up functioning effectively together - as is the natural order of life. As well as giving each and every pupil the confidence to ‘give things a go’ with their enviable array of extracurricular activities, there is a strong focus on instilling traditional values, such as respect and manners – These are just some of the many elements that contribute to Westbourne’s friendly, family atmosphere and ultimately to its success.

At the same time children have the opportunity to take part in our Arts Programme and we pride ourselves on ensuring that all children are able to perform in one of our numerous dramatic productions using the schools purpose built stage and professional lighting system. Headmaster, Andrew Lamb and his team are tremendously proud of what the children achieve at St Peter & St Paul School. The philosophy is simple, if you ask a lot you should not be surprised if the children achieve a lot. School entry is not confined to the Reception Class which is fantastic news for parents who feel their child’s potential may not be fully channelled at their current school. Why not come along
CHOOSING THE RIGHT SCHOOL FOR YOUR CHILD
The new school year brings with it an important and sometimes daunting task for parents of children just starting their final year of primary education: choosing a secondary school. During the next month or so, secondary schools will be opening their doors to parents and students to help them make a choice which is right for them. Lady Manners School in Bakewell aims to help with this decision as much as possible. It is holding two open evenings during September for parents and children currently in Year 6. Duncan Meikle, Headteacher at Lady Manners School says
“Parents will want to ask questions about exam results; the approach to children needing particular education support, or stretching; the school’s approach to bullying; and wider life at the school – which extends far beyond the classroom. Most importantly, they will want to gain a feel for the school. Does it feel like the sort of environment in which their child will be happy and flourish?” Typically students are more interested in meeting new friends; trying new subjects; finding their way around their new school; and finding time for the wealth of new clubs they want to join!
New Workshops
AT BASLOW STUDY CENTRE
Baslow Study Centre is extending its services to include the French and Science Workshops. The Centre already offers extensive private tuition services at its very own site in Pilsley, near Bakewell. Small group tuition or one-to-one tuition is provided for Maths, English and Sciences from Key Stage 1 to A-level. The services will now include a French Club aimed at 7 to 11 year olds. This can be used as a way to supplement school French classes or simply to boost confidence and learn a new skill. Members of the French Club will learn French in a fun and interactive way, they will be taking part in role-plays, games, writing
and drawing and watching film clips. Each member will be given their own workbook to chart progress and learn new vocabulary and phrases. Also to be added are science workshops. These are a great way to get students engaged in the sciences and to show them that learning can be fun. Workshops are based on a hands-on method of learning. There will be lots of interesting projects to keep young minds occupied – our budding scientists’ first project will be launching a Space Balloon! For more details on how to register and to keep up to date with what’s on offer, visit the website balsowstudycentre.co.uk
Lady Manners School has a great deal of information about its wide range of offerings – both curricular and extracurricular - on its website, www.ladymanners.net. Prospective parents and students alike should be
able to find all the answers to their questions from the website, and their visit to the school. When the final choice is made, parents can then be confident that they are choosing the right school for their child.

Our Year 6 students gained a clutch of grade 4s and 5s but special mention must go to Kyle and Harry. Kyle was predicted to get grade 2s but, working with his tutor Sarah, he pulled a grade 4 out of the hat! Harry was predicted 2s and 3s but achieved grade 4s and a grade 5! Kate was a GCSE English student who was predicted a grade D or E but worked hard with Jo from September 2013. We were thrilled when she achieved a grade C! As a result Kate can take up a place on the college course of her choice. Congratulations to all our fantastic students! To find out how the Kip teams at Matlock and Chesterfield can provide life changing help and support for your child call Jo on 01629 56611 or 01246 220224.

A Level Results HIGHFIELDS STUDENTS CELEBRATE RECORD BREAKING SUCCESS Highfields School Sixth Form students are celebrating outstanding A level results today, with an overall pass rate of 100%. Overall 72% of grades are in the A*-B category, a significant increase on the school’s previous best performance of 60%. We are delighted that 15% of grades were in the A* category with 50% of all students achieving at least 1 A*/A grade. This tremendous achievement represents the exceptional performance of our students and is great news for the school, consolidating the outstanding Ofsted judgement given to the sixth form in 2012 and building on our 2013 results which put the school in the top 5% of schools nationally for student progress. Most importantly these results mean that the vast majority of Highfields students will be able to follow their planned next steps. For many this will be a place at their choice of
University, for others a place in employment or further training. There are numerous individual successes amongst the results. Four students, Rob Dimbleby, Peter Kincaid, Zoe Crowley and Tom Scrase, achieved 3 or more A* grades. All were thrilled with their results which they put down to hard work and the quality of support that they have received at Highfields. Conor Tuffs, a young man who battled against Leukeamia in his early teens is now on his way to study Medicine at Exeter University. After receiving his results Conor said ‘I’m just ecstatic, it shows me anyone can do what they want’. Head of Sixth Form, Martin Flett, is delighted with the results, saying ‘I am really proud of how hard they have worked. Their commitment, drive and enthusiasm have made them a great group of young people to work with. Beyond their academic achievements they are happy and well-rounded individuals who have made some great contributions to our community.’ His
sentiments were added to by assistant head of sixth form, Dave Turner. He pointed out, ‘these achievements represent seven years of hard work. Their examination results are outstanding, but as a group they have contributed so much on so many fronts such as performing arts, sport, Duke of Edinburgh award and mentoring younger pupils. We are very proud of all their achievements and wish them every success in the future’. ADVANCED SUCCESSES AT LADY MANNERS SCHOOL This has been another successful year at Lady Manners School with strong performances at Advanced Level for Year 13 students. There were 153 students who completed their studies this year. Two students achieved the highest grades of A or A* in five full A Level subjects – these are Elizabeth Armett and Matthew Bradley. In fact, Matthew actually achieved A* in all five subjects, which is a remarkable success. Eight further students achieved four Grade A or A* passes within their full A level results, and they are Zoe Balmforth, Michi Burrow, Holly Chetwood, Kate Hibbard, Kieran Horry, Laura Leichtfried, Lucy Lincoln and Gerard Shields. Another ten students achieved three Grade A or A* passes within their full A Level results – Alice Cook, Alice Hall, Talita Henderson, Abbie Hickinson, Anna
Peak Advertiser Office: (01629) 812159 Koschitzke, Elizabeth Morrison, Megan Ojari, Amber Stelling, Samuel Tournier and Alastair Ward. Students at Lady Manners School have performed well overall with many achieving the top grades. More than half of all the grades achieved are in the higher categories of A*, A, or B. In addition to the students mentioned already, there are many other good performances at a whole variety of levels and lots of students have achieved the grades that they needed so that they are able to take their next important step. Successes have also included other qualifications as part of the overall achievement, like the Extended Project Qualification, Arts Award, and the Universities Award. Headteacher Duncan Meikle has commented on the A level results by saying “Lots of students have performed very well. The results overall are thoroughly deserved. Congratulations to students and staff who have had to work very hard to achieve these successes”. Sixth Formers at Lady Manners School have spoken about how they feel about their school. In a survey conducted earlier in the year, 96% said they would recommend Lady Manners School Sixth Form to other students. 89% felt that teachers have high expectations and, as a bonus, 88% of them enjoyed the lessons that have led to their impressive results. ANTHONY GELL SCHOOL CELEBRATE A-LEVEL RESULTS Students at Anthony Gell School in Wirksworth are celebrating their A-level results today. Headteacher David Baker said that he was really pleased with the results which were up on last year’s, with a 100% pass rate and 70% of grades being A* to C. The school has students going to universities to study Architecture, Physics, Psychology, Engineering, Radiography and a wide range of other courses. Many are in the UK from Cambridge to Manchester and those staying more locally at Sheffield and Derby. Two students are going to study at universities in America. A significant number of students are also going down the higher apprenticeships route in areas such as ICT, Engineering and Business. Mr Baker said, “Our students have worked really hard to achieve these results, not just in the last few months but throughout the two years of their courses. They understand the need to have the best possible qualifications and are ambitious for their future careers. They have also had fantastic support from very hard working teachers and mentors as well as their parents and we need to recognise the significant effect that this has”. Year 12 students have also gained excellent results at the end of their first year of sixth form which Mr Baker says is particularly pleasing as under the new rules, they could not take any modules in January as previous year groups have been able to. Mr Baker added “It is great to see how happy so many of our students are today when they get their results. I wish them all the very best of luck in their future lives and look forward to hearing of their future successes”. ABBOTSHOLME ACHIEVES INDIVIDUAL ACADEMIC SUCCESS AT A LEVEL Pupils, teachers and staff at Abbotsholme are celebrating after the school achieved some excellent individual A Level results, with 62% of pupils achieving A*-B grades at A Level, and 92% achieving A*- E. “Congratulations to all
our pupils on a good set of A Level results and some incredible individual successes.” “Our results were outstanding especially in the fields of Maths, English and Science where 100% pass rates were achieved along with Art, Film, Languages and Technology. Steve Fairclough, Abbotsholme’s Headmaster also added, “We are incredibly proud of all of our pupils for the hard work they have put in and the excellent attitude they have shown to study and learning.” “Credit must also go to our talented staff team for the support they have shown preparing and guiding students over the last two years.” “Although we are a nonselective school and accept pupils who would not be given places to take A Levels at other schools, these results demonstrate how we continue to achieve high standards individually and across the board, and help every pupil to fulfill their potential.” “At Abbotsholme, our ethos is focused on an education for life both inside and outside the classroom, and these results reflect our commitment to ensuring they leave school ready to face whatever challenges and opportunities lie ahead.” Abbotsholme, located on the border of Staffordshire and Derbyshire is a leading independent coeducational boarding and day school for ages 2-18. Amongst its high achievers are pupils with aspirations to read Genetics, Engineering and English. Joe Hodgson from Repton, Derbyshire obtained 2 A*s in Business Studies and Sport and a B in History and will be going to East Anglia to read International Relations and Modern History. He said of his results, “I feel amazing, especially since I worked very hard.”
they have given to the young people and the school. He added “We all know how important good qualifications are, but it is also a pleasure to see our students develop into such mature and independent young people and it has been a real pleasure to work with them”. The school entered some students for GCSEs in November and some in June and Mr Baker says that giving some students a second chance means that they improve their grades and so gives them the opportunity to go on to higher level courses next year. He said that many students are returning to the sixth form whereas others are going on to apprenticeships or vocational courses at local colleges. INDIVIDUAL ACADEMIC SUCCESS AT GCSE FOR ABBOTSHOLME SCHOOL PUPILS Pupils are celebrating after receiving their GCSE results this year, with some excellent individual results with pupils achieving an overall 76% pass rate for A* to C and 28% pass rate for A*A the latter being the best results in recent history for Abbotsholme. Abbotsholme is a leading independent co-educational boarding and day school for ages 2-18 located on the border of Derbyshire and Staffordshire near Ashbourne. These results follow the School’s A Level results which were announced last week, where all pupils achieved individual Iacademic successes. Amongst the other high achievers are a number of pupils going onto study Science, Maths and Business Studies at A Level at Abbotsholme. Robin Van Vroenhoven achieved an A* in Dutch GCSE 2 years ago; his twin sister Sanne gained an A* in Dutch three years ago, and last year achieved an A at AS Level in Dutch too. Both from Ashbourne, Derbyshire, this year they
GCSE Results GCSE RESULTS BEST EVER FOR ANTHONY GELL SCHOOL Students at Anthony Gell School in Wirksworth are celebrating the school’s best ever GCSE results. 71% of students gained 5 higher grades including English and maths, beating the school’s previous best by 5 percentage points. 84% of Year 11 students gained a higher level pass in maths and the same percentage in did so in English. Progress rates were also excellent, again the school’s best ever. Headteacher David Baker said that he was absolutely delighted with the results and congratulated all the students on their achievements. He said “These results represent the culmination of a tremendous amount of hard work by our students and it is fantastic that so many students have passed key subjects with such high grades. This gives them the best range of choices for their futures”. Mr Baker also thanked all the staff for their hard work and dedication and parents and governors for the support
gained a further 22 GCSEs between them with 7 A*s, 9 As and 2 Bs and a C with Sanne achieved all A*s and As and a B. Florence Miller, from Ashbourne, Derbyshire whose brother Ben last week achieved three Bs at A Level, achieved an A*, 6 As and 3 Bs at GCSE. She is going onto do English Literature, Geography and Business Studies at A Level. Florence said of her results, “I am really happy about my results.” “I cannot believe I got an A in physics but I do not know how!” Barnaby Wilson from Derby, and Ed Pashley from Matlock, Derbyshire, who recently completed the DW Canoe Race in a record time achieved 9 GCSEs each respectively. Both are staying onto Abbotsholme to do A Levels, boarding in the Sixth Form Log Cabin Village. CELEBRATING GCSE RESULTS AT LADY MANNERS SCHOOL GCSE results this year show that Year 11 students have made good progress during
their time at Lady Manners School in Bakewell. Overall, 72% of the students in Year 11 attained at least 5 grades of C or better. For the more difficult figure of 5 or more GCSE A* to C including both English and Mathematics, the Lady Manners School performance is 66% this year. Fifty four students achieved at least seven full GCSE A or A* grades within their results, a slight increase from last year. These students are Bronwen Adlington, Hannah Askey, Angus Baldwin, Elysia Basford, Kit Battarbee, Sophie Beadsmoore, Charlotte Belton, Benjamin Bird, Georgina Botham, Alice Brown, Sarah Burnard, Rachel Burnley, Florence Chappell, Freya Clarke, Joseph Cruttenden, James Davison-West, Alice Dawes, Cameron Dawes, Sophie Dillon, Mollie Edge, Samuel Edmans, Jake Edmiston, Rosie Elliott, Megan Ewens, Daniel Garland, Joe Gibbs, Alexander Givens, Finlay Goodwin, Euan Greatorex, Obi Groombarke, Alistair Hickman, Matthew Horry, Bethany Isle, William Jackson, Megan Jones, Charlotte Kidd, Rosemary Kreit, Emma Lawrence, Jack Lenton, Dusty Mason, Thomas Moores, Fenn Newsome, Thomas Parker, Kirsty Porter, Sophie Pritchard, Joss Spear, James Spittle, Matthew Sully, Josephine Walbank, Daniel Ward, William Ward, Barney Whiteside, Stephanie Williams, and Olivia Willingham. Headteacher Duncan Meikle has said that “Students and staff have worked hard and these successes are well deserved. In the core subjects of English and Mathematics in particular, good progress has been made from the starting points when students began at the school. There are also some very strong individual performances once again”. HIGHFIELDS ‘CLASS OF 2014’ GCSE SUCCESS The publication of today’s GCSE results sees Highfields School’s ‘Class of 2014’ celebrating some outstanding results. Overall the percentage of pupils gaining 5 A*-C including English and maths stands at 69%, in line with last year. However, the number of pupils achieving top grades has risen dramatically, with 20 pupils achieving 10 or more A*/A grades and 55% of youngsters recording at least 1 A*/A. This is further positive news for the school following on from last week’s record breaking ‘A’ level results. Headteacher, Eddie Wilkes said ‘These results represent the outcome of a great deal of hard work by staff and students, led by head of year 11 Nicola Gresswell, who has done a great job of keeping everyone going. At the top end it is great to see youngsters achieving as many as 11 A* grades. It is also pleasing to know we are meeting the needs of our students across the ability range as we look to ensure we have given them the best possible start. These outcomes are particularly pleasing given Ofqual’s warning of ‘variability’ nationally this year’. Charlotte Kirk, who achieved 10A* grades and 1A said ‘I feel absolutely stunned and relieved to finally learn my grades. I would like to say a big thank you to all the staff who supported me, I could not have achieved this without them. I can’t wait to start Highfields’ sixth form now’
Simon Finney, who achieved 8A* and 3A grades commented ‘Words can’t describe how this feels. Highfields were always there to support me with teachers who have always been willing to give up their time. On to A levels now!’ COLLEGE STUDENTS CELEBRATE EXCELLENT GCSE RESULTS DESPITE NATIONAL EXAM TURMOIL Students at Hope Valley College are celebrating having recorded another strong set of GCSE results. 66% of students gained 5 or more A* to C grades, including English and Mathematics with an impressive 25% of students results including 5 or more A/A* grades. Principal Bernie Hunter commented: “We are delighted that this year the College, collectively, has once again achieved an impressive set of GCSE results. For a quarter of our students to have recorded a minimum of 5 A/A* grades is truly staggering. Against a national picture of turmoil, brought about by changes in central government policy which makes year on year comparisons difficult, the results achieved by our students are impressive and reflect a pattern of strong academic achievement and individual progress. The College and its students have excelled and we are exceptionally proud of our successes.” In addition to two thirds of students achieving 5 A* to C including Maths and English, 27% of students achieved the standard required for the English Baccalaureate. The standard requires students to achieve a GCSE grade C or higher across a core of subjects including: English, Maths, History or Geography, the Sciences and a modern foreign language. Other key results included: •75% of students received 5 GCSEs at Grade A*-C •67% of students achieved a higher grade (A*-C) GCSE pass in maths and in English •84% of students in English and 76% in Maths made the nationally expected levels of progress over the course of their secondary education In addition to the College's overall success there were a number of exceptional individual performances. In total 7 students achieved 10 or more A/A* grades with Matt Creswick (9 A* and 2 A grades), Laura Keyes and Laura Lowe (4 A* and 7 A Grades) the highest achievers. Mr Hunter added: “With English results declining nationally we are exceptionally proud of the fact that we improved upon last year's outstanding English results. Our primary task is to ensure students leave with the range and quality of qualifications required to maximise their life and employment opportunities. We are proud that we have prepared our students well for their next stage in education whether that is an academic, vocational or employment based route. I congratulate the students on their hard work and the success it has brought them. The results are just reward for the efforts of the staff along with the vital support of the parents, which made all of this possible.” The class of 2009 will be invited to return to the College to collect their certificates in an evening of celebration early in December

CHOOSING A SCHOOL As the Headteacher of a secondary school, I am well aware of the importance of the decision that parents of Year 6 pupils have to make in the next few weeks. Transferring from primary to secondary education is one of the biggest steps a child makes and their 5 or 7 years at secondary school will have a massive effect on their future career opportunities. Every parent wants their child to be safe and happy at school and obviously to be successful and to obtain the best possible education. We are lucky that all the secondary schools in the Derbyshire Dales are good and successful schools, each with their own approach and ethos and I would like to explain our philosophy at Anthony Gell School in Wirksworth. I believe that above all, students have to feel safe and happy to come to school. Without this, they will not fulfil their potential. We are a small school with around 680 students on roll. We operate a House based system with a senior tutor in charge of each House. Our tutor groups mix up students of all ages so right from the start, new entrants get to know some of the older students and feel comfortable around them. Many have been in mixed aged classes at primary school and may be meeting old friends! Students stay with the same tutor for
five years as they grow through the tutor group and this gives them someone who they know well and who can help and support them. We take the care, guidance and support of our students very seriously and many parents identify it as one of the strengths of the school. Key to success of course is the best possible teaching which is engaging, exciting and varied in its style. We work hard to ensure that is exactly what we deliver and that we use a balance of the traditional and modern to create the variety. Students follow courses not only in the core subjects of English, Maths and Science, but also study Humanities, two foreign languages, all the areas of Technology and The Arts, use ICT and take part in PE and PSE lessons to help stay fit and learn about how to live a healthy lifestyle. GCSE results at the school have improved dramatically in recent years through the hard work of students and staff and the vital support of parents. We track students individually and intervene to ensure they meet their personal targets. This year, we achieved our best ever GCSE results with 71% of our students achieving 5 higher grades including English and Maths. I was particularly pleased to see that across all abilities, 84% of our students made the
expected progress in English and maths over their five years at school, with the national average being around 70%. I want to see all students do well. We also have a strong sixth form with many students going on to University. I am just as proud of a student who gains a string of A*s and goes to Oxford as I am of one of our students with Special Needs who gains 8 or 9 GCSEs and gains an apprenticeship or a place at college. Anthony Gell is a community school and to me this means we must serve the whole community and aim to get the best out of all our students. To ensure our students learn to study outside school as well, we set maths and English homework every week and one extended project from another subject lasting round two hours. All our homework tasks are available on line so parents can see what is required and support is always available. As a sports college we are lucky to have superb PE facilities. We have use of Wirksworth Leisure Centre during the day as well as extensive fields and three, artificial pitches – one brand new and the largest just completely upgraded. We encourage fun and participation as well as having many successful school teams and supporting other
students to succeed in individual sports. We even own three boats at Carsington so that our students can learn to sail. Of course what many of us remember from our school days are all the extra activities and trips that we took part in. They form a really important part of school life and I am lucky to work with so many colleagues who are willing to run lunchtime and afterschool clubs from sports to Science, Art to Dance and computers to Film. We have an extensive number of trips both locally and abroad with successful exchange groups to France and Germany, an annual ski trip to Austria and a sports tour to Holland. We have even had two trips to the Russian space centre near Moscow in recent years. I have worked at Anthony Gell for over 30 years and have been proud to be Head for the last eight and half years. Leading the school is a fantastic and challenging job, especially given the world of rapid change in which we currently live. I am looking forward to welcoming parents of Year 6 students to our school next week so they can see for themselves all that Anthony Gell has to offer and decide if it is right for their child.

WINSTER SCHOOL SUMMER NEWS competitiveness. Once
It was a fantastic summer term and refreshed and energised we start a new school year. As we take a look back it is unbelievable how much the children fitted in! Early in the term Yrs. 5 and 6 visited Losehill for a residential trip which they enjoyed immensely, taking part in many exciting activities including building a siege engine, visiting Peveril Castle and archery and an archaeological dig. They took part in South Peak Sports, cluster Rounders at Highfields, the Bunting Cup and a Tag Rugby Tournament where they won an award for Good Sportsmanship. Wakes Week was full of activities including a church service with wonderful singing and thoughtful prayers and a chance to view the children’s lovely artwork. They also had an African
Drumming Concert along with Elton School showing off their wonderful new drumming skills. The sun didn’t manage to shine for the School Cream Tea Afternoon but the children managed to keep a smile on everyone’s face as they sang beautifully with such enthusiasm. The children joined in the Village Country Show by making individual flower arrangements and later had a lovely picnic
whilst participating in Circus Skills. The children were very thoughtful and organised and presented a World War 1 Centenary Service in church where they read poetry and told us how the war affected their ancestors. The school opened their garden on Winster Secret Garden weekend with the children running a cake competition, with very strict rules and much
judged visitors paid a small price for refreshments tasting their exquisite creations, with all monies going to the Secret Gardens. All in one week the children visited the Jorvik Museum in York, watched a production of Guys and Dolls at Highfields and built the most wonderful insect hotel you have ever seen. Thanks to Derbyshire Wildlife Trust who came into school to work with the children as part of our Eco School work. The children collected many natural and recycled treasures and built the hotel in the school garden where it will be a lasting feature. All Yr. 5 and 6 children passed their Bikeability Level Two before ending the term with a lovely but sad leavers’ service and exciting Movie Star themed party organised by the super PTFA.
OPEN EVENING We are holding our annual Open Evening for parents and Year 6 pupils on Thursday 25th September at 7pm starting in the school hall. All parents of prospective pupils are welcome to come to look around the school and to meet our staff and students. Copies of our new prospectus are available from our partner primary schools or direct from the school. The school aims to provide a safe, happy and caring environment in which pupils can achieve their very best and take full advantage of all the opportunities they are offered. We have around 680 students on roll including our sixth form and offer them a broad and balanced curriculum together with exceptional sports facilities and a fantastic range of extra-curricular activities and clubs. Do come and see for yourself. We look forward to welcoming you to the school.

HARDWOOD LOGS LTD
Hardwood Logs Ltd has established a reputation for quality, reliability and a friendly service. Hardwood Logs Ltd. is now one of the largest suppliers of naturally seasoned Hardwood in Derbyshire. We pride ourselves on our excellent quality and
customer service and our prices reflect the quality of our wood. We are very happy to give free advice on “a customer’s individual wood fuel needs”. We offer a range of wood fuel products to suit every budget. Seasoning refers to the
process of lowering the moisture content of logs to a level where they will burn efficiently and safely. In the case of naturally (or “air”) seasoned logs the drying process is achieved simply by the sun, wind and the passage of time, making the log production almost entirely environmentally green. All our naturally seasoned timber is sourced locally from managed woodlands within the East Midlands area, making our wood fuel almost carbon neutral.

THERE’S NEVER BEEN A BETTER TIME TO GO GREEN Since 2011 The Renewable Shop, has been helping domestic and commercial customers to lower their energy bills, benefit from Government incentives and reduce their impact on the environment. Now based in Darley Dale, The Renewable Shop provides a comprehensive installation and maintenance service for all renewable energy systems. Future-proof your home: From Spring 2014 homeowners will receive domestic Renewable Heat Incentive (RHI) tariff payments for 7 years, for heat generated by biomass boilers, heat pumps and solar thermal panels. Homeowners can expect to earn an income from £5,000 to £30,000, over a 7 year period, depending on the size of property and system installed. This will more than cover the cost of the installation! Fuel savings can range from 25% to 70%, depending on the existing oil, LPG, solid fuel or electric heating system that is being replaced. Typical payback periods for renewable heating systems, against oil, LPG, solid fuel & electric heating, (including fuel savings and RHI payments) are: 3 to 5 years for ground source; 2
to 4 years for biomass; 5 to 7 years for air source and 7 to 10 years for solar thermal panels. Whether you need an air source heat pump for your new build or pellet boiler for your old leaky property, we have the expertise to install a system bespoke to your requirements. Future-proof your electricity usage with the installation of a solar PV system. A domestic solar PV system will cost from £5,900 inc VAT; the payback is after just 6 years. Future-proof your business: Now is the time for your business to replace your oil, LPG, electric or solid fuel heating system and switch to a renewable heat source such as a biomass boiler or ground source heat pump. Benefit from significant annual fuel savings of 30 to 50%, as well as earning income from the Renewable Heat Incentive (RHI) tariff: typical earnings are between £4,000 to £8,000 a year, which is locked-in for 20 years and guaranteed by the government. Commercial Solar PV installations also provide an excellent return on investment from 14 to 20% and significantly lower your electricity costs. For further peace of

THE ECO-HOME: FANTASY OR REALITY?
It’s difficult to pick up a paper or watch the news without hearing of a crisis in a far off land that’s going to affect our energy supplies and increase our energy prices. With tough EU environmental targets, global financial crisis and the closure of ageing power stations adding to the mix, we’re facing tough challenges in maintaining our energy supplies. Surely there’s never been a better time to introduce renewable energy into your home or business? What is renewable energy? What was once viewed with suspicion as something ‘new-age’ is now not only
becoming the norm but could soon become a necessity. As the name suggests, renewable energy is generated through sources that are easily replaced or ‘renewed’. But the renewables market can be a complex looking picture. What do you chose? How much will it cost? Are renewables really that environmentally friendly? Renewable energy systems can be broken down into these main categories: •Solar Photovoltaic (PV) •Solar Thermal •Air Source •Biomass
Some of these are familiar but what you’re probably not aware of is that through the Government’s Renewable Heat Incentive (RHI) you could be rewarded for your efforts in producing renewable heat. Whilst the initial installation costs can sometimes be higher than traditional LPG or oil central heating systems, if fitted correctly it can make savings of more than £8,000 in just seven years. Sounds too good to be true? Local heating specialists VHS can guide you through every process to ensure your home or business is
more energy efficient, saving you money on your fuel bills and accessing the funding available under the schemes listed above. As an exclusive offer to Peak Advertiser readers we are offering guided tours of the VHS Eco-home in Hathersage. Here you can see all the renewable energy systems listed above in action and the VHS team will demonstrate how it cannot only save you money, but make you money. Call 01433 620 220 to arrange a visit and see firsthand that the Eco-home is no longer the stuff of fantasy but very real indeed.

Festival of Bird Art, organised by the BDWCA (the British Decoy & Wildfowl Carvers Association (BDWCA).

This year sees the return of our new and exciting category – Innovative Wildlife Sculpture – which is open to all BDWCA members whatever their skill level, and is judged as a single category. The sculpture may be of any species of bird, with no size restriction, and may be sculpted/carved using any variety of materials, to
include but not restricted to wood. It should be totally original in design and concept and entirely innovative in its exception and portrayal. The sky really is the limit for this category! Demonstrations of wildfowl carving, painting, stick making and decorative techniques will take place during the weekend, and stockists of carving supplies, books, paints, equipment and wood for carving will be present. Also in attendance will be wellknown Wildlife Artists. Those of you who attended last year will have seen the impressive display of the shorebird, the Red Knot, which were entered in our Regional Group Competition. The winners – Cheshire Group – chose the subject for this year and they have selected a Wagtail. Most of our Regional Groups have taken up the challenge, so an extremely impressive display is anticipated.

‘It has been a period in the doldrums for High Tor Players with no productions for two years’ said Jane Small of Matlock - the newly elected Chair of the group. ‘Things were grinding to a halt’ she added. High Tor Players – the amateur drama group from Matlock – has a great history of putting on plays ever since 1937. The last play, aptly named ‘Old Actors never die..’ was staged to small audiences in 2012 and in 2013 the rehearsals for ‘When we are Married’ had to be abandoned half way through. It then looked as though the group may close after 75 great years. ‘At the recent AGM a new team of keen but experienced actors showed the enthusiasm to help revive the group and this has resulted in the next production which is set to tour the area’ said newly appointed secretary
Simon Brister of Matlock. ‘A Comedy Feast’ consists of two one act comedies called ‘Meat and Two Veg’ and ‘What’s for Pudding’ and they will be staged at 8.00pm on Thursday 25th September at Youlgrave village Hall; Friday 26th September at Ashover Village Hall and Saturday 27th at the Medway Community Centre Bakewell. Tickets at £8 each and can be obtained from our b o x o f f i c e hightorplayers@gmail.com 01629 733407.

endeavour “Jazz in the Village” will take them up and down the country playing in villages all over Britain. Dominic says “We have been very successful at transforming the village halls into an intimate cabaret style jazz club setting with low lighting and candles on the tables. We now have very many fond memories of wonderful evenings in halls around the country where the reception we have received and audience comments have been fantastic.” Ian says “Our experience of playing in halls up and down the country has been amazing and the acoustics in most of the halls are superb. We have experienced a warm and friendly atmosphere where the audiences know each other, creating truly inspirational settings for some wonderful evenings.” Ian and Dominic have also performed in a number of Festivals including the Edinburgh Jazz Festival, Glasgow Jazz Festival, Fife Jazz Festival, Callander Jazz Festival, Borders Jazz Festival, Bath Fringe Festival and the Buxton Fringe Festival. They have had enormous success over six years during the Edinburgh Fringe Festival where their successful fringe show ‘Jazz at Lunchtime' at the Radisson Blu Hotel on the Royal Mile has entertained thousands of people, with many sell-out shows. A number visitors to the Edinburgh Fringe from all over the world have returned year after year to see them play.

HILL FARMER INVITES PUBLIC TO GET STUCK INTO MUD Peak District hill farmer, Roy Critchlow, is hosting the first ever Mud Run and Obstacle Course Race (OCR) to be held in the Peak District. Taking place over the weekend of 4th and 5th October, the event, Bog Commander, promises to be a dirty affair. Farming between Flash and Hollinsclough, just 6 miles from Buxton, Roy says ‘The terrain up here, although spectacular, can be brutal. Bogs, steep hills and challenging weather make farming this land tough. There are a lot of people that

We really wanted to make this event fun, so we are building fiendish obstacles into the mix.’ Obstacle Course Racing is a fast growing new sport. Participants tackle the obstacles together, so a sense of camaraderie is built up. It doesn’t matter how fast you complete the course, as long as you finish. Expect to crawl through mud, climb up cargo nets, splash through rivers and have fun whilst getting very

time it was the shooting lodge for the Fitzwilliam family of the Wentworth Estate. I then wandered along a woodland path dotted with occasional mushrooms and magical toadstools. Together with a ripening of
various berries, it made me realise that summer has gone and autumn is here. Several sets of steps led me down to the dam wall of Dale Dike Reservoir beyond which I crossed a footbridge over peat rich water and followed a track up to Dale Road. Along the way I came across a plaque to the memory of those who lost their lives owing to the breaching of the original reservoir here on March 11th 1864. It was considered to be one of Britain’s worst disasters and became known as The Sheffield Flood. On that fateful night the dam wall had recently been completed and the reservoir allowed to fill up. Extremely heavy rainfall however caused the

reservoir to fill too quickly and strong winds blew the water into turbulent tidal waves that whipped up and lashed against the newly constructed dam. Late in the day a horizontal crack appeared and an engineer was quickly sent for. He
arrived after dark to find the crack had widened and was getting worse. Gunpowder was laid against the overflow weir to try and release water to ease the pressure. The attempt failed and before a second charge could be laid the main wall broke. 700 million gallons of water poured down the Loxley valley through Low Bradfield, Loxley, Malin Bridge and on to Sheffield. Water containing wreckage thundered down the valley like a battering ram and it is said that in the space of half an hour 244 people were drowned, 700 farm animals were lost and 4,511 houses were flooded leaving 20,000 people homeless. 600 buildings were washed away and 15 bridges disappeared.
It took from 1864 to 1875 to repair Dale Dike with a new dam wall, built 400 yards upstream of the original. A nearby stone inscribed CLOB, stands for ‘centre line old bank’ which marks the location of the original dam wall. There now followed a bit of easy walking on the quiet lane past Walker House before crossing Annet Bridge to amble up Blindside Lane, initially through a dark holloway. Farming hereabouts can be a battle with the elements and the encroaching moors constantly try to take back farmland that centuries ago was taken in and cultivated. Turning left when I reached Wet Shaw Lane, I passed the ‘double diamond’ gates to Loftshaw Workings which are now disused. This is where fireclay was excavated. It was siliceous clay that withstood high temperatures and was used in the manufacture of fire bricks and furnace linings, probably being the reason for the naming of nearby Furnace Hill. I wanted to get to the highest ground and the best views, so I then followed the wonderful old road over Ughill Moor. The panoramic views from up there were just divine encompassing the metropolis of Sheffield and beyond. To the west there was a gap in the moors where the A57 snaked through, with a mini mountain summit of Win Hill in the distance. Just past Moscar Cross farm I came upon an old guide stoop at a crossing of old roads which made my eyes light up with delight. Thought to date from 1702, this ancient waymarker guided travellers long ago in the direction of Bradfield, Hope, Hathersage or Sheffield. An earlier stone dating back to medieval times is recorded as once standing hereabouts at a junction of old packhorse routes. It was known as Humblestone Cross. A short distance away stands Moscar Lodge which dates from 1872. However, I took the quick way back to my car by walking along the old coach road, now a bumpy track. I felt sad that my walk was at an end as I could happily have rambled a lot longer. However, my timing was perfect as the clouds had thickened and I could see an area of drizzle drifting over the Derwent valley and heading my way – the wipers were on before I had reached the main road!

What a fantastic walk this turned out to be! I set off for a wander around the Strines Reservoir with the intention of taking a few nice atmospheric photographs and just got carried away. Nine miles and more than 200 clicks later and my ramble was complete! I just wish I had a smidgen of artistic skill with a brush as I would have loved to capture the contrasting textures, colours, shades and ambient light of this landscape on canvas. Thankfully however my wonderful Canon camera does an impressive interpretation at the touch of a button. I managed to park at the western end of Moscar Cross Road where there were just a couple of spaces, and set off on the road to Moor Lodge. My eyes were immediately drawn to the sea of purple as the Derwent moors stretched away to the horizon where standing stone formations such as the Hurkling Stones and Wheel Stones, also known as the Coach and Horses, stood out as landmarks on the skyline. A more fascinating feature though was the Rapunzel like tower known as Boots Folly which stands on a grassy knoll beyond Bents House, commanding a prized position in the valley. Going to the side of an impressive pair of electric gates, I began to descend the drive towards Sugworth Hall before following a bypass path leading through a dark passage beneath high rhododendron. The 17th century house here was much extended in the last century by Charles Boot, son of Henry Boot, founder of the famous Sheffield construction company. Following a chink of light at the end of the tunnel, I eventually emerged to a view which took my breath away – simply stunning! Although it looks like it was constructed in the 17th century, Boots Folly was built in 1927 as a way to keep Boot’s builders busy during the years of the depression. I explored the tower which is now just a glorified cattle shelter and then followed a stretch of the Sheffield County Walk through reed grass pasture and meadows peppered with wild flowers. This route gave me an aerial view of Strines Reservoir with the much earlier Brogging Farmhouse at the end of the dam wall. Constructed in 1871, Strines Reservoir has a holding capacity of around 450 million gallons. Across the valley I could see Hallfield, a very palatial spread. It is said that there has been a dwelling on this site since 1318 although the present house was rebuilt in the 17th century by Nicholas Greaves. At one
