Our Organist
Mr Keith Yearsley MBE

In this context 96 of the total of 200 tickets (100each night) have already been reserved. (this is before they are made available to the wider public).
 If  YOU want to come, don’t leave it too long. February may seem a while away, but to avoid disappointment,    contact Keith now (01625-424-215) to reserve/buy your tickets.

All proceeds will  go towards the expenses (accommodation etc) of Mr Carlo Curley, the American virtuoso Organist who will be here at St James on 4th & 5th  February 2009

This is advance notice of a particularly prestigious event to be held in St James’ Church Gawsworth, in February 2009

The internationally renowned virtuoso organist, Carlo Curley  will give a recital on the Allen Renaissance organ at St. James, hopefully on both Wednesday 4th February AND Thursday 5th February.

The two performances have yet to be confirmed, but would be necessary to meet the anticipated demand for tickets, remembering that the seating capacity at St James is limited to approx 100.

If YOU would want tickets, please give your details to Keith Yearsley (01625-424-215) as soon as possible. Further details will follow.

SOCIAL AND FUND RAISING COMMITTEE

What a super evening we had for our Harvest Hog Roast and very worthwhile too.  After paying for our hog, and again Jayne made a lovely job of our      supper, we have been able to send £300 to the charity SMILE,  for children who are born with cleft lips and palates (Each operation costs £150) and £250 to Samaritan’s Purse for Water Aid.  It was the turn this year for charities abroad, and I think everybody will agree that this was a splendid result, thanks in no small way to the total of the Auction of Produce.
With Christmas in mind, don’t forget that we still have some of our cookery books, cost £4.50;  ideal for putting in an envelope for a small gift.

PRIMARY SCHOOL ?
 We are now three quarters of the way through a busy term.

 As a school we are trying to develop social and business enterprise.  Our PTA have had some eco shopping bags made and Cloverbank Organic Farm are allowing us to sell them at the very popular Farmer’s Market.

 We are always looking at ways to develop links with the community and local businesses so if you would like to explore the possibility of a business or enterprise link with us, please contact me in school.
