Choosing a Sixth Form Choosing A That’sForm Right Sixth For You That’s Right
For You
By Carol Geddes, Barton Peveril
Your choice of sixth form college will have a direct impact on your chances of success when the time comes to move on to higher education or employment, both in terms of the subjects you study and the projects and activities you involve yourself in outside the classroom. A good sixth form education is about much more than consistently strong exam results. It’s about finding a place that takes an equal interest in the aspirations and achievements of each individual student and nurtures a diverse, vibrant and positive learning community. The end of Year 10 is the ideal time to start researching your options. Use the summer term to start looking into what the different colleges can offer, where they are located and if they do the courses that you are interested in. Find out when applications open, what the process is and whether you need to meet specific deadlines. It’s really important to visit as many colleges as possible before deciding which ones to apply to. Take a look at their websites and make sure you have a copy of the latest prospectus – most colleges send supplies to schools in early September. 26

Colleges tend to hold open days/ evenings in early summer and again in the autumn, so keep an eye out for dates and start planning! These events are really important because they give you the opportunity to talk to teachers and current students about what courses and college life are really like. Each college will have a different atmosphere and ethos so don’t think that after visiting one they are all going to be same. It’s not until you step through the door that you get a real sense of the ‘wow’ factor and whether a place is right for you as an individual. Below is a checklist to help you decide which college is best for you academically and personally in order to tick the right boxes for university entry and job applications. The advice will also give you an idea of the sorts of questions you should be asking at open events. • Do plenty of background research on careers that interest you • If you already know your ideal career path, the best thing to do is to work backwards by checking out the entry criteria for higher education courses at www.ucas.com This will give you a clearer picture of which
subjects you need to take at A-level and whether vocational courses such as BTEC and Cambridge Technicals are also accepted • Unsure about what you want to do after college? Then the general advice is to take a broad base of subjects that you are interested in or have enjoyed at school. If you didn’t like a subject at GCSE level you are not likely to enjoy it at college and that will affect your chances of success. • Ensure that the colleges you’re considering offer all the subjects you’re keen to do, then check out the entry requirements and differences between the syllabus, facilities and additional activities that support your studies. • Look at how the courses are assessed; are they all exam based, all coursework based or a mixture of the two? The balance will vary between colleges and exam boards so don’t assume it is the same at every college or for every subject. • How flexible are the different colleges with regard to subject combinations and mixing academic and vocational courses?
• Check out the support, guidance and facilities available at each college – things like careers advice, help with time management, library facilities and learning support, if appropriate.
solving and many other skills.
• Is there specialist advice for Gifted & Talented students? What about bespoke programmes for entry to Oxford and Cambridge universities and high-flying performers and sportspeople?
• Think about transport. How will you get to college? Are there buses from where you live? What do they cost?
• Are there opportunities to get involved in lots of clubs and activities and go on trips? Ditto work experience and volunteering? All these things are an important part of a rounded education and really help with university and job applications because they broaden the mind and develop creative, communication, problem-

Last week Melanie and i went to a talk by shaun Attword at Winchester university put on free by the Criminology department which was quite eye opening (check out www.shaunattwood.com!). tania and her daughter enjoy local theatre so she booked tickets to see tunnel of Love at titchfield Festival theatre (warning…bring a blanket!). in my spare time, i sell vintage scarves and sussed out two fairs in Lymington and Lyndhurst to sell my collection (please like my facebook page Avant scarves!) We also get the odd free ticket to gigs at the Brook in Portswood; a great place to see up and coming bands and tribute acts (www.the-brook.com). secondly, when i need a window fixed, carpets cleaned or blinds made i have an instant access to all our advertisers; over 350 of them now. We pledge to use our own advertisers first and foremost and we shop locally whenever possible. if you contact any of our advertisers please remember to tell them where they were “discovered”.

TRAVEL
10 Highlights of a Holiday in Croatia Relax on the beach
View from Rozac
apartment balcon
y
Just a week or two in the unspoilt Dalmatian Coast gives you a taste of what Croatia has to offer; history, sun, sea and lots to do. If you haven’t booked your summer holiday yet here’s ten tempting reasons to choose Croatia this year.
1 Historical town of Trogir;
Wind your way round the narrow, cobbled streets, wine and dine under the palms of the “riva” in view of the super yachts berthed nearby.
2 3
Hire a speedboat for the day.
Swim in the falls of the Krk National Park.
4
Visit Split by boat from Trogir. Walk amongst the Diocletian’s Palace, set within the centre of Split itself
5 Okrug Gornji beach, Ciovo.
Be served drinks while you soak up the sun.
6 From dolphin watching to
spearfishing, bike tours and island hops to Hvar; excursions all start from Trogir so take your pick.
Krk Falls
10
7 Laganini Beach Club... heaven.
8
A day trip to Mostar, Bosnia & Herzegovina.
9
Ride the Cetina River in many ways; by raft, canoe, kayak, abseil or just in a wetsuit and drift downstream.
10 Relax by the pool at
Rozac, a luxury 3 bedroom apartment with two balconies, air conditioning and private pool. Located in the heart of Ciovo island, walking distance to Trogir and five minutes stroll to the beach. When’s the best time to go? Peak season is July and August so it’s bustling and weather is beautifully hot. June and September is quieter and a little cooler.
Some excursions might not operate in May and past 15 September. What’s the currency? Kuna and good value for money at current exchange rates. Do they drive on the left or right? On the right but with the network of water buses and boats you don’t need to hire a car. Rozac apartment is available for rent from May to September. Low cost flights from Gatwick and Heathrow to Split. Call Melanie Tinson on 023 8027 6396 or 07900 307636 for availability and costs. Prices from £450 per week.

Moyles Court School is within reach for hard working families A new affordable price structure and door to door service means many more families can consider an independent education. Moyles Court school near ringwood in the new Forest is totally in touch with the families it is looking to attract. With an excellent reputation for education and learning tailored to the individual, Moyles Court has looked at other critical considerations – fees and accessibility to take account of busy parents juggling work commitments. Headmaster Mr richard Milner-smith said: “independent education is sometimes thought of as exclusive, the preserve of the very rich only. Our aim is to overcome that prejudice and to convince many more parents that it is the right choice for their children.” At a time when most independent school parents will be contemplating another above-inflation annual rise in fees, most families at Moyles Court school will be paying an average of 15% Less next school year than they are this year.
Mr Milner-smith added: “What Moyles Court has to offer is, in a sense, beyond price: an education, tailored to the individual needs of each child, in an idyllic setting. As well as our listed main building, we have enviable modern facilities including a new library, modern sports hall, outdoor multi-sports courts, extensive playing fields and art and iCt studios” “By reducing the financial cost very substantially we intend to show many families that they can in fact afford the undoubted benefits of an independent education for their children.” www.moylescourt.co.uk/join-us

We plan on giving your senses a real treat! the festival is all about enabling everyone within the community, regardless of their background, to enjoy and experience the arts through our family friendly event. this year, Hanger Farm Performing Arts Centre will play host to the event. this stunning 18th century converted barn and surrounding green space is the perfect home for a local arts festival. We will showcase the amazing talent that totton and eling has to offer through a range of diverse activities including art exhibitions, photography competitions, street art, live music, local dance and theatre groups, dance performances, as well as running a variety of interactive arts workshops for everyone to enjoy. Most events will be free or a small charge to keep activities accessible to all. Also on the saturday there will be a large outdoor Arts and Crafts Market, this will be held on the recreation ground at Hanger Farm. there will be a field of local arts and crafts people selling their unique hand made items. Also on in the park there will be children’s ‘have a go’ workshops and large scale out door performances. We are especially excited about our circus skills tent and music workshops. this really will be a fun day out for all the family focusing on the Arts and what you can do to join in and have fun.

CAKE AND BAKE
Chocolate Fondant Puddings
Serves 4
These divine puds have a wonderful molten chocolate centre which oozes out as you cut into them. Take care not to overcook them and serve immediately otherwise the liquid centres will start to set. Serve with a dollop of tangy crème fraiche or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for the ultimate indulgence!
Ingredients: • 100g unsalted butter, softened, plus extra for greasing • 100g caster sugar, plus extra for sprinkling • 100g good quality dark chocolate, broken into pieces • 2 large eggs • 1 tsp vanilla extract • 20g plain flour • Mint sprigs, to decorate • Few strawberries and chocolate shavings, to serve
Ready in 35 mins
TIP If you don’t have individual pudding basins then use small ovenproof ramekin dishes instead. 22
1. Preheat the oven to 200C/180C fan/Gas 6. Lightly grease 4 x 175ml capacity individual pudding basins with the extra softened butter and sprinkle with the extra caster sugar. Place on a baking tray.
2. Place the butter and chocolate in a heatproof bowl set over a saucepan of simmering water and leave until melted. Remove from the heat and stir until smooth. Leave to cool for about 5 minutes.
3. Place the sugar, eggs, vanilla extract and flour in a bowl and, using a hand-held electric whisk, beat together until smooth and creamy. Fold in the cooled chocolate mixture and pour into the prepared pudding basins.
4. Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the puddings are risen, puffy and just set on the outside- they should have a slight wobble and still be runny inside.
5. Leave for a few seconds then turn the puddings out onto serving plates. Decorate with mint sprigs and serve with the strawberries and chocolate shavings.

Cloudy2Clear Windows – Service With A Smile! It’s been a crazy few months for Cloudy2Clear Windows. The company which specialises in repairing windows which are steamed up, broken or damaged by replacing the panes – not the frames has grown rapidly as homeowners take advantage of their services. Managing Director Justin Friel feels that it’s all about service. ‘Our product is simple. If your double glazing is misted up we can replace the glass at a fraction of the cost of a new window, in any type of frame, and with a new 5 year guarantee. But it’s not just about saving
people money, although that obviously helps. Many tradespeople have struggled since last year and I honestly feel that during the good times a minority perhaps didn’t focus on customer care as much as they should have done. We make sure we turn up when we say we will, do the job the customer requires and leave their house as clean as a whistle. I often get comments back from customers on how they really didn’t expect that sort of service which, in a way, is very sad for the service industry as a whole.’ Cloudy2Clear service the Totton, Ashurst & New Forest areas and Justin is finding that his
approach is a major factor in his success.‘The truth is that it’s not just the personal satisfaction that I get from doing a good job but also it makes good business sense. I get a huge amount of business from friends and family of people I’ve
done work for, which just goes to show how much a little bit of effort is appreciated.’ So, if your windows are steamed up, broken or damaged give Justin a call for a free quotation on 0800 61 21 118 and he’ll be happy to help!

GARDENING
Going Potty for Summer Plants by Pippa Greenwood www.pippagreenwood.com
Summer bedding plants are everywhere at this time of year and as soon as conditions are reliable enough, you can plant them out in your garden to create a wonderful, colourful display to last the whole summer long.
Summer bedding plants are everywhere at this time of year and as soon as conditions are reliable enough, you can plant them out in your garden to create a wonderful, colourful display to last the whole summer long. I am a great fan of hanging baskets, window boxes and patio containers, but this year why not ring the changes and also include some unusual containers and planters to bring a different look or even a bit of humour to your garden? You can use almost anything as a planter, so keep an open mind before you chuck anything in the bin or skip. I have seen some really crazy plantings in disused hand basins, loo cisterns or even the lavatory itself! Provided there is adequate drainage in the base of the container, it should work well. If you are using something like a hand basin which only has one plug hole in the bottom, make sure that you cover it with pieces of broken crock and then perhaps put an inch or two of course gravel in the bottom of the container before you put the compost in as this should help to make sure that the drainage hole does not become blocked. But if you don’t like the idea of
34
bringing your loo or bathroom out into the garden, there are plenty of other normal household objects which can be used as useful planters without necessarily making your neighbours think you have gone completely crazy. How about that old watering can that’s sprung a leak or has a loose handle? Whether you have a traditional galvanised can or a more modern plastic one, you can have great fun planting it up with bedding, particularly if you choose something like trailing blue lobelia to come spurting out of the top and perhaps even the end. Buckets too can look really good fun and if you have one which still has its handle firmly attached, then you could use it as a hanging basket. Plastic buckets can have holes drilled or melted in the base and similarly you can use a sturdy nail to make holes in the base of a metal bucket. Old footwear with a bit of character can be turned into planting with real flair. If you use old gardening boots or a pair of shoes, you are unlikely to need to add extra drainage as they invariably drain well. But if you are going to recycle a pair of wellies, then you may need to
add a bit of extra drainage unless they have quite a lot of damage on their soles. Again cascading plants can look particularly dramatic, but a bunch of bright red geraniums or the spiky hedgehog-like foliage of a bright green or variegated grass can look particularly handsome appearing out of some discarded footwear. What about a beaten up old handbag? If you choose one with several compartments, you can even have sectional planting and if you have one with a handle, it too can be suspended from a pergola or wall and used rather like a hanging basket. See if there’s anything in your kitchen cupboards that could be recycled and put to better use in the garden. An old saucepan, casserole pot or even a mixing bowl or jug can make an attractive planter, but again you will have to make sure that
there is sufficient drainage. If the container is large and there are no drainage holes in it, then the other option is to plant it up as a mini bog garden and use moisture-loving plants in it such as hostas or pond-side irises. Colanders or sieves also make interesting and unusual hanging baskets and have the advantage of holes that are generally so small that you need not even use a liner. You can simply concentrate on planting one or two upright specimens in the centre of the colander and then using plenty of trailing plants around the edge and allowing them to cascade down. Provided you have time to keep them well watered, you could even create your own living tea set with an old sizeable teapot and some large mugs full of favourite summer bedding. Larger items such as old
wheelbarrows or chimney pots may not be the sort of thing you have lying around your own garden, but you can often pick these up very cheaply from a local salvage or junk yard or perhaps even from a friend’s garden. Something like a wheelbarrow gives a huge planting area and because it holds such a large volume of compost, it will also mean that you need not be quite so concerned about watering, as it will be less inclined to dry out. All these containers can be treated in just the same way as a container that you have bought from the garden centre. As I mentioned drainage is of great importance, but when it comes to choosing a compost and the plants themselves, you need nothing any different from when you are planting up a more traditional container and believe me you can have a lot more fun!
