Local Taekwon-do Talent at Bring & ShareIn the middle of some little and large Taekwon-do talent atthe Wisbech Bring and Share Multi-cultural Festival inWisbech Park is Cllr Vivien MacRae Mayor of Wisbech.

There was a truly representative group of dedicatedstudents from the Carter School of Taekwon-do rangingfrom a 6 year old to a 53 year old – men, women andchildren of a wide range of gradings and abilities and theyput on a fantastic exhibition followed by workshops wherepeople could have a go, including the Mayor who broke aboard in style.

Mr Anthony Carter and his students have supported theWisbech Multi- cultural Festival for four years, by putting onan exceptional exhibition and then providing workshops for people of all ages to have a go. Many of thosewho have had a go have since joined one or more of the classes provided by the 5th Dan InternationalInstructor and examiner at his lessons at the Hudson Leisure Centre on Monday, Wednesday or Fridayevery week between 6pm and 7pm. It’s worth noting that the first lesson is always free.

Remembrance Sunday isRemembrance Day this year

As the custodians of Remembrance, TheRoyal British Legion calls on the nation tounite in commemorating RemembranceSunday.  Pictured here are some of thedignitaries that were at RemembranceSunday in previous times.  This year WisbechTown Council will be again represented aswill many other organisations throughoutthe town and district - on the eleventh hourof the eleventh day of the eleventh monthto mark the signing of the Armistice, on 11thNovember 1918, to signal the end of WorldWar One, the guns of the Western Front fellsilent after more than four years continuouswarfare.

Remembrance Day is on 11 November. It is a special day set aside to remember all those men and womenwho were killed during the two World Wars and other conflicts. At one time the day was known asArmistice Day and was renamed Remembrance Day after the Second World War.

Remembrance Sunday is held on the second Sunday in November, which is usually the Sunday nearest to11 November. This year this falls on Remembrance Day. Special services are held at war memorials andchurches all over Britain.  Ours will be at the memorial gardens at the mouth of the Crescent.

Since this year is very special as they both fall on the same day,  we will remember them - and we inviteyou to join us.

The Mayor at the FairTwice a year the Fair comes toWisbech.  In the month of March wehave the Mart Fair, and in Septemberwe are thrilled by the Statute Fair.They are brought to us by theShowman’s Guild of Great Britain,which is a very proud part of thetraditions of this country and has beena big part of the heritage of Wisbechfor centuries.

As well as the two fairs, theShowman’s Guild help out at eventssuch as the Rock Festivals, Multi-cultural Festivals held in the Summerin Wisbech each year, and also at theChristmas Light Switch on – and everytime they do us proud.

The Kenya ExpeditionOn Wednesday 11 July, twenty two youngsters from Wisbech Grammar School set out on an expedition toKenya.  On Wednesday 8 August they returned having had the experience of a lifetime.  Amongst themwere Alice  (daughter of former Mayor Nick Meekins), and Stuart (son of Town Clerk Erbie Murat).

During their month they spent time at CAYA repairing fences around the conservation area within theprotected wildlife sanctuary.  They also went to DIAWNI BEACH where they were involved with marinewildlife conservation and did their PADI open water diving certificates. During their time at TSAVO theywent on a photographic safari and helped with wildlife conservation.  And at MUHAKIA they worked withthe local community to prepare the foundations of a kitchen; dig a grey water well; and work with thechildren.

Stuart writes, ‘Digging the grey water well was, for me, the most rewarding.  With a great deal of hardwork, application and team work, we were able to help George, one of the local men, to dig a well thatwould take all the water from the washing up, washing machines and showers (not sewage) - and filter itto produce water that could be used to irrigate and raise edible crops.’

Alice writes, ‘I certainly look at the world a little differently now; most notably, considering I saw manypeople living in dreadful poverty, I do not remember ever seeing one face that was not smiling.    Perhapsthe best experience I had was one afternoon teaching in an incredibly poor primary school; the childrenthere worked from about 6am until 6pm, often going without food or water all day, as they came fromlarge families with little or no income. I had a grade 7 English class of about 70 students, aged 13 – 20, allof whom were very eager to learn and, it transpired, were very enthusiastic singers!’

A heartfelt thank you goes from them and the other young people from Wisbech Grammar School to MissForbes and Mr Williams who went with them on the trip, and to all the help and support they receivedfrom family, friends and other fundraisers who helped them get there.

Warning over bike theftsPOLICE are urging cyclists to take security precautions when leaving their bikesfollowing a spate of thefts. Many of the bikes stolen were left unsecured outside shopsor in gardens. Crime reduction officer Julie Hanrahan said: "It only takes a few minutesfor a bike to be ridden away by a thief so my message would be, ‘If you value it, lock it,don’t lose it’. "More than half of all bicycle thefts take place at the owner’s property.Simple crime prevention methods can lessen the chance of having a bicycle stolen.

 "It may seem like there are lots of things to think about when locking a bike but onceyou get into the habit you will be able to lock your bike within seconds and it will be

well worth the trouble.”Cyclists are urged to:

� Secure removable parts. Lock both wheels and the frame together.Take smaller parts and accessories that can be removed with tools with you.

� Make the lock (and chain, if used) and bike harder to manoeuvre when parked – to stop thieves smashing the lock open.

� Keep the lock (and/or chain) away from the ground.� Keep the gap between the bike and lock small.� Never leave the lock lying on the pavement – a lock can be sledge hammered easily

when it is resting on the ground.� Locks can also be picked, so face the lock towards the ground (but

not resting on it) so it can’t easily be turned upwards for picking.� Register you cycle for free at www.immobilise.com� Keep a detailed description of the cycle, make, model, frame number,

colour and any distinctive markings.� Mark the bike using a clearly visible and secure marking in two

separate places.

Anyone with information about bike theft should contact policeon 101 or Crimestoppers, anonymously, on 0800 555111

Similarly, faced with a hosepipe banthey persuaded owners of three very large roves touse their rainwater, this collected rainwater quicklyfilled their bowser to water over 300 baskets andplanters throughout the town.

Wisbech is very fortunate in having two historicgardens in Peckover House and Elgood’s Brewery. Anew feature this year is a ‘gerainbow’ in St Peter’sChurchyard.

Areas of achievement listed by the judges were:

� The two new poly-tunnel plant raising facilities at Smith’s farm Shop� The collection of rainwater at Smith’s Farm Shop, Elgood’s Brewery and Technical Electrical

Services and the twelve, donated, 1000 litre containers to do this� Wisbech Park – a wonderful open space with some beautiful sculptures and flower beds� The conservation work in Wisbech General Cemetery� The Boathouse and newly landscaped Nene Waterfront� The school gardening group and the ‘Our Place’ garden at St Peter’s Primary School� Rabbit (Freedom Bridge) Roundabout with its three boats and the sustainable planting in the

raised beds at the entrance to Freedom Bridge� Peckover House and Elgood’s Brewery historic gardens� The wonderful floral displays in St Peter’s Church gardens, Crescent Gardens, and the new

Museum garden� The 350, sponsored hanging basket provided by Wisbech In Bloom� The mock shop fronts in the High Street� The garden created at the Octavia View homeless hostel

They also noted the plans for the future for the Octavia Hill Birthplace House Centenary Green, continuingconservation work in the General Cemetery, and the ongoing replacement of the shrubs in St Peter’s CarPark.

To all members of Wisbech In Bloom and the volunteerswho give so much of their time and resources we all say

Thank You and Congratulations!
