National Youth Brass Band visits<br />

Churchfields Junior School<br />

South Woodford business owners<br />

invited to meet at local gatherings<br />

Pupils at Churchfields Junior School enjoyed<br />

a concert by the National Youth Brass Band<br />

of Great Britain in July. “We were recently<br />

selected by the Department for Education<br />

to be a national case study for a new music<br />

curriculum, and we welcomed the band<br />

to encourage their young players. Hits<br />

including Sweet Caroline and Uptown Funk<br />

were played and have hopefully inspired a<br />

future generation of musicians. All pupils at<br />

Churchfields learn to play an instrument,” said<br />

Deputy Headteacher James Easter.<br />

Three local business owners have established<br />

a new monthly business meet-up to foster<br />

local support and networking opportunities.<br />

“Held on the second Tuesday of every month<br />

at 7pm, the free ‘Keeping it Local Wanstead’<br />

informal gatherings take place at various local<br />

pubs and eateries. The inaugural event took<br />

place in June at The Cuckfield with some 20<br />

participants. It is open to all business owners<br />

across E11 and E18,” said founders Anna<br />

Potts, Carlos Gonzalez and Clare Hughes.<br />
