KIND OF BLUE AT THE BELL
The next performance of "Kind of Blue " will be in the hall of the
Bell, Woodham Ferrers, on Monday 28th October, 8.30-11 pm.
If you like the songs from "the Great American Songbook" and
other jazz "classics" played by a small group (quintet), then come
to your local pub and enjoy a "jazz club" atmosphere.
The move to the hall has been a real success, and we would like to
thank those of you who braved the rain and darkness to come to
our last September gig.
TRINITY ST MARY’S C OF E PRIMARY
SCHOOL HELD HARVEST FESTIVAL
Change of day
Following on from that, we have listened to some of our audience
who find it difficult to come out on dark wintry nights.
In 2020, at least while the clocks are on Greenwich meantime,
(January, February and March) we may move our gigs from Monday
to the last Sunday afternoon in the month, finishing before sunset.
Christmas arrangements
One "special" afternoon to put in your diary is Sunday, December
15th, when we will be organising our yearly Christmas mixture of
jazz and "singalong".
Entry by ticket, proceeds to breast cancer and Crohn's disease.
Details to follow.
But until then, please come to the Bell on the 28th.
You'll find a friendly welcome from the band and management.
Sandwiches and entry are free.
CROUCH VALE HEALTH CENTRE
The move to the new Crouch Vale Heath Centre is scheduled to
take place soon with a provisional opening date of Monday
November 4th but there have been so many delays don't be
surprised is there's another one.
Trinity St Mary’s C of E Primary School’s community came together
at their recent Harvest Festival service held in Holy Trinity Church.
The service was led by their Collective Worship Group. The
children spoke of the meaning of harvest and of how lucky they
are to have food, shelter and the community who cares for them.
The children also spoke about how important it is to think about
those who are not as fortunate as them and what they could do to
help. Rev Carol joined them for the service and gave the food and
congregation her blessing.
The children chose to support the Chelmsford/South Woodham
Ferrers Food Bank. Thank you to parents, carers and grandparents
for their generous donations.
