To the Parwich Community,
Our Head teacher, Mrs. Caroline Rodgers, is leaving us at the end of this week for pastures new. We are holding a special assembly to celebrate her time at Parwich Primary School and would like to invite anybody that would like to join us.
The assembly will be held in school on Friday 19th December at 1.30pm and festive refreshments will be available afterwards.
Everyone Welcome!
We look forward to seeing you there.
(SSSSSShhhhhh! Mrs. Rodgers doesn’t know)

Below are a few photos from a lovely night singing carols on the Village Green with Ashbourne Town Band. Even a bit of rain couldn’t dampen the festive spirit, all helped by the mulled wine and mince pies.
Thanks to John F-S for the photos

Can anyone recommend a good reliable local professional removal firm, used to narrow lanes and local conditions? We are hoping to move soon after New Year – about 400 yards to another Parwich address… so no long distance involved but plenty of manoeuvring delicate and or heavy stuff round awkward corners and up and down stairs!We have heard one or two horror stories so are anxious to avoid another!Thank you. Please leave a message on the blog, or ring us on 519

This morning our computer was blocked from the internet by a site accusing us of using the internet inappropriately and asking for money before the computer can be unblocked. Be aware of this scam circulating at present.

Do you have a great idea for helping to reduce waste in your community or business?
If so, Derbyshire County Council want to hear from you.
We want to help local groups and businesses bid for a share of £800,000 from Government to help set up innovative projects to prevent materials going to waste.
Grants of up to £25,000 could be made available through the Waste Prevention Fund for projects which help reduce wastes such as food, textiles, paper and board, plastics, electronic and electrical equipment, furniture, building and demolition waste and healthcare and chemical waste.
To qualify for funding, projects will need to be new and not yet tried elsewhere. This could involve developing new services, or new products to deliver existing services in a different way.
We would decide which bids to take forward and would work in partnership with the relevant groups or businesses to bid for funding and − if successful − help to deliver the projects.
Councillor Dean Collins, Cabinet Member for Highways, Transport and Infrastructure, said:
“Derbyshire is a hive of business innovation and we want to focus some of that original thinking to look for new ways of helping residents and businesses to reduce waste.
“We are facing difficult financial times and need to cut our budget by £157 million by 2018. Sending waste to landfill costs the us £19 million a year which could be better spent on other services.
“Cash is available for projects which can help reduce waste, working in partnership with us. So if you’ve got an idea, call us on 01629 539776 or 01629 539787, email wastemanagement@derbyshire.gov.uk or find out more at derbyshire.gov.uk/dwpf.”
Proposals would need to be agreed with us by 16 January 2015 and bids submitted to Government by 6 February 2015. Grants need to be spent by 31 December 2015.

There has been a run on the Derbyshire County Council questionnaires seeking our views on the kind of bus service we would like serving our community. The authority is closely examining routes and timetables to make savings.
The first 25 questionnaires placed in the Pump bus shelter have all gone. I have placed some more in there.
The consultation closes next Sunday but the mobile library will take completed forms on Monday. Alternatively, hand them in at the Ashbourne library or place through the letter box (above the trough) at Church Cottage, The Green, and we will hand them in.
Please tell friends or neighbours who might want to compete the questionnaire.

Well trying to be clever in the previous post didn’t seem to work, as no one noticed that David and Roy were appearently holding a very large tree several feet off the ground. So here is the full picture:
Many thanks to the F-Ss for providing the tree and to David W, Jimmy W, Roy M and Denis L for putting up the tree.

Our Weatherman in the Village sends his apologies, but
I am sorry to report that the recent technical issues I am experiencing with my weather station mean that unfortunately I shall be suspending weather data for a little while until I resolve the problems properly. The live link to the station will still be open, but please be aware that some readings may not be accurate at this time. I will endeavour to resolve the issues as soon as possible, and hope to resume the posts then. In the meantime, those who thought last weekend was a little chill will be relieved to know that the –64 Celsius recorded was slightly lower than reality!
Update: The links are in the Weather section of the right hand column of each page to the Blog. There are two links:
