Tomorrow – Friday 13th January – 7.45pm
Taken from the book, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part 2, this is the final adventure in the Harry Potter film series. In the much-anticipated epic finale, the battle between the good and evil forces of the wizarding world escalates into an all-out war. The stakes have never been higher and no one is safe. But it is Harry Potter who may be called upon to make the ultimate sacrifice as he draws closer to the climactic showdown with Lord Voldemort. It all ends here.
“Sensational, satisfying, surreal … an explosive final chapter puts the magic back into the Harry Potter franchise” The Guardian. Starring Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson, Maggie Smith, Ralph Fiennes, Michael Gambon, Helen Bonham-Carter, etc, etc! This film broke all box-office records.
***NEW! Catering4Parwich will be serving Burgers (£2) and Sausage baps (£1.50), along with chips, tea, and sweets for the children. Come and have your Supper before the film showing! Or in the interval.***

The gate at the back of the Memorial Hall has been badly damaged with both hinges being sheared off.
It not now possible to properly secure the garden area thus preventing children attending Stepping Stones from using the outside space for play.
The incident has been reported to the police. The Memorial Hall Management Committee would be grateful for any information about who might be responsible for the damage.

Stepping Stones pre-school are holding a Pea and Pie supper and Family Quiz on Saturday 11 February at 7:30pm in the Memorial Hall.
Tickets are priced at Adults £5.50 and Children £2.50.
Stepping Stones is a registered charity and although we receive some finding for the children we do rely heavily on donations and fundraising. The pre-school is run by a very small committee of mums and we all work extremely hard to ensure that the pre-school keeps going to provide a very valuable learning environment for children of ages 2-5 from the village and surrounding farms. So your support is extremely valuable and very much appreciated.
Tickets from Tracy Fentem, Vicky Yeomans and Gill Harrison

Return to the magic and wonder of C.S. Lewis’ beloved world The Chronicles of Narnia — via the fantastic Narnian ship, the Dawn Treader. Edmund and Lucy Pevensie, along with their cousin Eustace, their royal friend King Caspian and a warrior mouse named Reepicheep, find themselves swallowed into a painting and onto the Dawn Treader. Their mission — on which rests the fate of Narnia itself — takes the courageous voyagers to mysterious islands and a river that turns to gold, to fateful confrontations with magical creatures and sinister enemies and to a reunion with their friend and protector, the “Great Lion” Aslan.

Catering4Parwich has been popping up on the blog a lot recently. Just in case you don’t know, it’s a fantastic “new” non-profit making organisation run by Val Kirkham for the benefit of our community.
Originally it was set up in 2009/10 as a means to obtain funding for kitchen equipment for the new Memorial Hall. One of the conditions of the grant was to set up a micro-enterprise so that all profit, once food costs and wages have been deducted, goes back into the Memorial Hall.
The funding committee and Val created this organisation and now Val is totally responsible for all aspects of Catering4Parwich. During a normal week Val and Alison work about 6-8 hours a week but this goes up significantly when there are functions. Casual staff, normally local youngsters, are employed for such events, so if you would like to add your name to her list, please contact her. Some village functions like yesterday’s very successful lunch use volunteers, this helps to keep the price down to a minimum, with everyone only having to pay £5 for a two course meal.
During the past year Catering4Parwich has supported many events, both in the village and locally. Every week food is provided for the British Legion Darts Club and teas for the Over 60’s Pilates. Other events include the Oddfellows Lunch, Harvest Supper, lunches for new candidates for the teaching post at Parwich School, two Lent lunches, the Royal Wedding Event, lunches for a local and a national gardening group, teas for an art exhibition and the monthly film club.
C4P’s biggest event was catering for 512 people during the Archbishop of Canterbury’s visit to Ashbourne, smaller events included Parkside Junior School’s Prom and a local funeral.
Already this non-profit making organisation has bought additional equipment for the kitchen, including an electric bain-marie, pans, vegetable dishes, a water boiler, a portable gas griddle and two portable ceramic hot plates. Items they are looking to purchase in the future include a fryer, microwave and quality cutlery for weddings.
Val has produced flyers to market C4P but word of mouth is her best source of bookings, which are already coming in for 2012.

The latest event organised by Catering4Parwich, “Parwich Lunch”, had its inaugural meal today. Sixteen adults and two children enjoyed a lovely chicken and vegetable casserole with dumplings followed by apple pie and custard. There was a great atmosphere and lots of talking.
Everyone was very quick to sign up for the next lunch on Monday 19th December – Turkey and all the trimmings, followed by Christmas Pud or Trifle, other dietary requirements can happily be catered for. At £5 it is a real bargain, next month Martin C will be showing a film after the lunch for those who would like to stay on. If you haven’t booked ring Val on 458.
Future Lunch Dates
Always held in the Memorial Hall at 12.45pm – £5
