Many aspects ofmodern life have unfortunately gone by the board, but here in Quedgeley your localCommunity Trust has tried to retain just a few through the show. Our annual show is not onthe lines of the major agricultural shows, in fact many local shows have ceased to be, butours continues and it does give a few local people an opportunity to show off their gardening,cooking and many other skills.This year’s Quedgeley Show will be held at Severn Vale School on Saturday 16th July inconjunction with the school's 50th anniversary celebration weekend.Schedules for this year's show can now be downloaded from www.quedgeleynews.com andfor the first time this year you can also download an entry form (Word 97-2003 format) to yourcomputer, complete it and then email it as an attachment to editor@quedgeleynews.com –(must be emailed back by Wednesday 13th July). Please note entry fees for your web entryforms must be paid on the morning of the show when you bring your entries along between9 am and 10.15 am.There are lots of different classes to suit most people's hobbies and interests so have a lookand when you find something to suit you complete your entry form, email it to QuedgeleyNews, bring your entries along on the day and fingers crossed you could be a winner!”Thank you for understanding we need ‘Voluntary’ Contributions to enable school tripsto take placeFollowing on from last week’s newsletter we would like to reassure all parents that weendeavour to collect all trip donations. Hopefully this will quash the ‘playground rumour’ thatsome parents regularly ‘get away with paying nothing’ at the expense of those who regularlysupport school by promptly sending in a ‘voluntary’ contribution for their child!Sulgrave Manor (Y5), 93% paid in fullBlack Country Museum (Y3), 96% paid in fullBirds of Prey Centre (Y2), CL6 100% paid in full, CL5 89% paid in fullLydiard House (Y1), CL4 93% paid in full, CL3 90% paid in fullCotswold Wildlife Park (Rec), Cl2 97% paid in full, CL1 94% paid in fullThe other percentages equal very few people, who have in the main already paid a depositand are still to send in the balance of the trip cost. If that is you, please pay your balance orgo to speak with the office staff. Many thanks.TESCO and Sainsbury’s VouchersThe final count has been made and we are delighted to tell you that we have collected thegrand totals of 61,346 TESCO vouchers and 18,523 Sainsbury’s vouchers. We will soonbe able to give you our ‘shopping list’ of free goodies to add to our resources.Many thanks to everyone for once again collecting such a fabulous amount of vouchers andan enormous thank you to Mrs Nikki Rule who has tirelessly counted and logged all thevouchers as they came in. We could not do this without parent help!Music Tuition from SeptemberLetters went home last week to children in years 3 to 5 asking if anyone would like to takemusical instrument tuition in the next academic year. Some of the peripatetic teachers areprepared to take children in the current year 2, so if your child is in that year group and youthink that they would genuinely like to learn to play an instrument and be committed to the fullyear of tuition, please see Mrs Phillips in the office. Unfortunately, Mrs Griffiths will no longerbe teaching keyboard, percussion and guitar for us next year as she is retiring from the localauthority in July. We will all miss her very much – she has been teaching for us for severalyears and has always given time over and above the hours she has been paid for to teachthe children. We all wish her a really happy retirement!
