Would-be archaeologists and stargazers are invited to meet the experts to explore ancient history and the night sky from a prehistoric stone circle on Sunday December 4th.

Nottingham Trent University in partnership with the Peak Park are offering 60 free places for people to find out more about the Nine Ladies stone circle, on Stanton Moor, both on the ground and in the night sky.

Three two-hour sessions will take place on Sunday December 4, at 12noon, 2pm, and 4pm, starting at the Village Hall in Stanton in Peak, near Bakewell.

The events will include a short talk on the history of the stone circle, what to look out for in the night sky in December, a planetarium session and a 15-minute walk to the stone circle. The 4pm session will include a look at the night sky through telescopes (weather permitting).

Booking is essential as each session is limited to 20 people.  A waiting list will be used to prioritise bookings for future events. Dogs are not allowed. To book call 0115 8483518 or email daniel.brown02@ntu.ac.uk (more…)

This guy looked as bit lost as he was seen staggering down Creamery Lane about 30 minutes ago.

If you see him,  do help him, as he’s going to be the star tonight.  Give your vote and support  to “Guy in Lights”, better than X Factor & Strictly, from 7.30pm, Live on Alsop Road. It’s Bonfire Night!


Well done Wyatt & the Marshalls.

It’s The Monster Mosh

It is with some relief to us all that The A52s are now unable to play at The Legion this evening – Saturday 29th October at 8.30pm. Apparently they are all too scared of Hallowe’en.

However we have some good news! In their place, The Legion have secured at last minute the services of Dexy’s Chainsaw Massacre – another local band sounding remarkably like The A52s. They are much more scary than our familiar bunch of lads but still drink as much beer.

The band hope to see you there this Saturday evening. Be there and be scared!

Hi,
I’m contacting you with a cheeky plea for help/request for info from Comic Relief – I hope you don’t mind!

Comic Relief would love to get Parwich involved in Sport Relief 2012 but I’m not sure who in your village would be able to help me do this.

From experience recreation committees or sports clubs are the most suitable people for me to speak to so I wondered if you would be kind enough to pass my email details – l.thornton@comicrelief.com (and this link – http://www.sportrelief.com/the-mile/organise-an-event ) on to them in the hope they’ll get in touch if they are interested?

Your help and support would be massively appreciated.
Thanks, Liz

Organise A Mile Event – What’s In it For You
Whether you’re a local council, leisure centre, sports club or university, there’s a lot to be said for organising your very own Sainsbury’s Sport Relief Mile:

  • It raises crucial cash for life-changing projects up and down the country and across the world.
  • It’s a great way to show off your town or, if you run a club, to raise your profile and get new members.
  • It’s inclusive, community-based, plus it gets everyone active and involved in a massive national event.

Our currently our nearest venue for the mile run is Ashbourne Recreation Ground on 25th March – Whether you do 1, 3 or 6 miles – as a family team, with your mates or against the clock – you’ll have a fantastic time when you go the distance. And until 15th December it’s half price entry, just £3 for adults, £1.50 for children and £7.50 for a family of four.

Sports Relief is also kicking off in schools.

The Autumn Dance

The Autumn Dance IS going ahead as planned on the 8th October at 8pm

in the village hall

We still have tickets available from

Tracy Marshall 390552 or Louise Bostock 390566

This event is to celebrate the 150th year of Parwich Primary School.

The event is to raise much needed funds for our school.

Due to recent Government Educational budget cuts, the PTA involvement in raising much needed funds for school is invaluable. Also the support from the parents and friends of Parwich Primary School is needed to ensure that our children of the village continue to receive the best education and resources

Your support as parents and friends of Parwich Primary School in attending what promises to be a wonderful evening would be fantastically appreciated. If you are unable to attend, raffle tickets for the event are also available for £1.00 per book and we have some amazing prizes including A Digital Camera, A Watch, A Gallon of Whiskey, Jewellery, Perfume, Days and Meals out and much, much More…..
