Hade Edge Breeze !
Autumn 2014

As summer starts to turn to autumn, it’s back to school for the kids and 6me to reflect on the great days of summer 2014.
The Tour de France brought thousands of people to the area to line the streets and experience the spectacle of the race passing through our beau6ful countryside. However on the following Saturday, the roads of Hade Edge were lined with spectators as the Gala procession made its way to the football field. The weather was kind to us and our biggest Gala ever was a huge success. This was followed in the evening with our Party in The Park. Read all about it in this issue of The Breeze.
There’s also news on the developments at Hope Bank where the new crea6ve hub, headed by Simon Wood, has broadened its range of ac6vi6es in addi6on to the well established Academy of Music. Read Simon’s ar6cle for details.
Michael Moorhouse has shared his most recent observa6ons on the variety of birds he has seen during the summer months. Take a look at his ar6cle to see if you have no6ced these birds in and around Hade Edge.
In this issue, there’s the latest news from the Hade Edge Band and their busy schedule of summer and autumn events. There are also details of the latest developments at the Band Room or, to give it its correct 6tle, The Edgar Dickinson Building. Read all about the Adult Learning Courses that Kirklees College have chosen to hold there.
Also in this issue, we have lots of news from our regular contributors and details of our latest Photo Compe66on so make yourself a coffee and relax with your Autumn Breeze.

Go to BBC2 radio podcasts and you will 4ind a series introduced by Jeremy Vine (brother of the one line king Tim) in which he interviews famous people and invites them to explore the question, what does it mean to be human? Each has a unique perspective and they make for fascinating listening particularly on long car journeys. !One thing I believe to be true is that human beings tend to be social creatures that are most content and most successful when they feel secure in their surroundings and at peace with themselves. Occasionally we are able to witness this, for example on Gala day this year. The sun shone and the people of Hade Edge and beyond came together to enjoy the largest ever range of stalls, exhibits and attractions. To see families and friends coming out together, to hear neighbours saying “I haven’t seen you for ages,” just to be part of a major community endeavour that pulled together over 1000 people, undoubtedly feeds the soul. !The evening party in the park has in 4ive years, grown from being a small gathering of thirty or so to resembling a mini festival with bands, a bar, and campers. We even got the prerequisite for all festivals, rain! It was a wonderful end to a fantastic day that saw us all having a great time whilst raising money for local good causes. I would like to thank everyone that contributed to the day from those who just turned up and had a mooch around to those who spent weeks, planning and organising to ensure that the event passed off so smoothly. Your efforts are greatly appreciated and the event raised in the region of 4ive thousand pounds, a tremendous effort. Particular thanks should go to the Gala Committee and to our business sponsors who made sure that the event could run without fear of making a loss. !The Gala is just one of the events that HEAR help to organise. On the penultimate Sunday of August about twenty volunteers went to the Common to cut and tidy the grass that had been allowed to grow in order to encourage wild 4lowers and wild life. The following day there was a quiz night held at the Postcard in Holm4irth and at the end of the year we will stage a Christmas dinner for the senior citizens of the village. We meet once a month on a Tuesday evening and the group is absolutely not a closed shop, we would welcome anyone who is interested in getting involved. If you would like to participate and want to 4ind out more, please feel free to call me on 680 767. You don’t have to be involved in everything; it certainly doesn’t have to be onerous. Being part of the group has certainly helped me feel more connected. At the same time, you will be doing your bit to further a sense of belonging and helping to make Hade Edge a great place to live. !Matthew Milburn Chair of Hade Edge Action for Residents

Starting the year at Hade Edge J& I School !Head Teacher Jeff Kilner reports… !!September has seen lots of changes within education both Nationally and here at Hade Edge School. On arrival back at school we have stirred things up again with a change to our classes. We now have a four class structure with very small numbers in each class. We have adapted our approaches to meet the new primary curriculum and have lots of changes to routines and events. !A big change is the introduction of ENTERPRISE lessons and the much discussed programming in ICT. The pupils have responded so well to our developments in ICT so I know we will make great progress in computing and programming! !Our curriculum is now set, educational visits have been booked and we are already looking to the school council and our FOHE group to see what exciting events we will have throughout the year. I have already heard pupils discussing Hade Edge has got Talent, an Autumn disco and there are rumblings of a Great Hade Edge Bake Off within school! !So, a busy start to the school year. With the excitement and the enthusiasm that is in abundance within school I am sure we will have more to report in the coming months. !Thanks, Jeff Kilner.

!The Friends committee have been having a well-earned rest over the summer from their usual fund raising and social events organizing. The 2013/14 school year was a great success ending with the FOHE paying for the whole school trip to Filey at the end of term. A real benefit to all the children of the school and a lovely way to spend some of the money raised during the year. !We are all raring to get started again in September and are hoping that some new parents or friends of the School might decide to pop along to our first meeting of the school year on Tuesday 16th September 8pm at school. If they do, they will be able to find out more about what we do for the school as well as bringing all their ideas along to help with future events. !Events coming up…. !It is the annual Macmillan coffee afternoon on Friday 26th September 2pm – 4pm and the half yearly Bags to School collection has been booked for Wednesday 5th November so look out for the bags and start saving your unwanted clothes etc. !Other ways to fundraise !With Christmas round the corner (yes I used the “C” word already)…..don’t forget you can also help raise funds for the school just by shopping. Make sure you do your online shopping through www.thegivingmachine.co.uk to help raise funds at no extra cost to yourselves. In addition if you shop at www.yellowmoon.co.uk (a great website for party things and craWy things) you can get cashback for the school. They are websites definitely worth checking out. !

HADE EDGE Academy of Music
by Simon Wood
Those hot summer days never quite last long enough do they!!! Ah well, the sun shone once again on us at the village gala. The Youth band marched us through the village and the Junior band entertained on the 4ield. Once again I didn’t get chance to conduct the band as the kids kept taking charge. It was another lovely day though and the Accordion and Concertina band were able to conclude the afternoons entertainment with their eclectic mix of song. !We’ve had a lovely mix of concerts over the summer, the old folks treats are always a pleasure and of course the TDF weekend was fantastic. Chloe managed the preparation of the 40 pieces of art work hanging by the river, fantastic, and our Rock Schools and Jazz Collective played at Honley Festival and Honley Summerfest while the Youth Band watched the spit4ires 4ly over Upperthong Gala!! We also had two gloriously sunny days at Cliffe Rec and Oakwell Hall. Well, I'm telling myself they were sunny….. !We’ve had Trinity College and Associated Board exams in the summer term. Running simultaneous exams was a 4irst for me but worked perfectly and we had our best set of results ever so THANKYOU to all our brilliant teachers and all the pupils that did so well. !We have two new teachers to add to our team this term with a specialist Piano and Cello tutor so anybody looking for music tuition can contact me directly. 07973 426939. Brass, wind, percussion, guitar, strings and piano lessons are all available now. !We will soon be running as Hope Bank Works Creative Hub, changing from the Academy of Music to re4lect the diversity at Hope Bank. Apart from the music we have lots and lots of art, yoga, drama, dressmaking and fashion, patchwork, baby massage, afternoon sing song and lots more. We also have plenty of rooms available for hire. Alternatively pop in and have a coffee. On Saturdays you can even get breakfast all morning and as ever there’s the obligatory free Wi-‐Fi. See you all soon !Simon 8
Hade Edge Birds (To August 2014)
As I write this in late August it is a quiet 6me for birdlife. The raising of young is largely complete, there are s6ll plenty of insects and other food so life is probably easier than at any other 6me of year. This makes it more difficult for birdwatchers as the birds are quiet and not easy to see amongst the thick leaf cover. The major excep6on of course is the Robin which has suddenly become very vocal and conspicuous defending their territories in prepara6on for the winter. It always seems the Robin’s autumn song is a li\le more mournful than in the spring6me; but maybe it’s just one’s own percep6on with the changing of the seasons.
For some years cuckoos seem to have been fairly scarce judging by the lack of their dis6nc6ve double note in the countryside. This year I have heard them around (though not necessarily seen) several 6mes and I wonder if anyone else has no6ced this? The spring and summer seems to have been good again for the numbers of waders in and around our moorlands with Snipe being seen on many occasions displaying in the area of Flight Hill; Lapwings, Curlews and Oystercatchers in good numbers, and Common Sandpipers occasionally seen on the banks of Winscar reservoir.
On the minus side Li\le Owls must have suffered from the very wet winter. Their feathers are not waterproof and so feeding at 6mes of con6nuous wet weather is a big problem for them. In the last few years I have seen them perching on the stone walls of the fields around the village and with remarkable consistency on the stone wall just below the school. However this year I have so far seen none. I would be very interested if anyone else has seen them.
Our bird table has been busy as usual. Blue Tits and Great Tits seem to have had a good season with the occasional Bullfinch and the usual profusion of Sparrows. The scarcity of the la\er in many parts has been well documented but we do seem to have a good popula6on here. Collared Doves too are a daily visitor to the table. Difficult to imagine they only arrived naturally in this country in the 1950s. On the down side Greenfinches have been very scarce on our bird table. In previous years they have always been regular, so again has this been no6ced on other tables in Hade Edge or are we just unfortunate? Linnets also seem to be less common but have been made up for by an apparent increase in the number of Goldfinches which have been foraging on the seed heads in some of the fields.
One of the bird highlights of the year for me has been the sigh6ng of two Siskins, one on the bird table and the other in Green Abbey, both in July. This is unusual as Siskins are generally winter visitors to the area.
As for birds of prey, Kestrels may not have been quite such a regular sight hovering over our fields, but a Buzzard was seen over Magnum earlier this month and a Sparrowhawk has made a few forays into our garden, dashing through hoping no doubt to latch onto some unsuspec6ng Sparrow.
Swallows were quite a sight on a wet day on August Bank holiday with a large number swooping for insects very low over Dunford Road. They will need to stock up on fat for their arduous journey to Africa coming up soon.

Well what a jolly successful Gala we had this year. The weather was kind to us and the football field was full of happy smiling faces having a great time. The procession of the Gala King, Queen and attendants was led by the Holmfirth Police and the wonderful Simon Wood and the Hade Edge Academy training band. The Gala was officially opened by Jason McCartney MP. The field was full of classic vehicles and lots of fantastic attractions and stalls for both adults and children. It was the best Gala yet. There was lots to keep people occupied with entertainment including the Hade Edge School Choir, MSA Thai boxing display team and Simon Woods band. The fun dog show was super, we had lots of happy waggy tails. The competition entries were amazing! Thank you all who entered. Thank you to all who came to support the Gala and thanks to our volunteers, who are the back bone of the Gala, without you it wouldn't be possible. We raised around £5K (A RECORD) to be split between the School, Nursery, Chapel, Football Club and the HEAR Committee (for the seniors Christmas meal, the common maintenance and the village planters). Thank you every body! Roll on 11th July 2015!! !

Party in the park gets better every year. It is turning into a mini festival. The four bands, Reg & the Tormentors, Unsuited, Firth Wind & Fire and State of Confusion were brilliant . The rain held off until around 10pm and by then people were having so much fun that they were dancing in the rain! Alfresco Pizza and Masala Lounge laid on great food and the bar kept every body well hydrated. People brought their tents and camper vans and a wonderful fun filled family event was had in Hade Edge. Thanks to all volunteers who helped clear the field the following morning (paid in kind with bacon butties). If you haven’t tried the Party in the Park before then it’s highly recommended. Ask any body who came this year!

Seasonal cuts available at Addys
A2er enjoying a long hot summer, ripe for firing up the BBQ, Hade Edge is slowly finding itself subject to cooler, weAer condiBons. Whilst this may not be to everybody’s liking, it brings along a few perks, namely some of the delicious cuts of meat and seasonal Game birds.
We have bulk buy offers on Prime Diced beef and Minced Steak, so if you wish to make a pan full of Chilli or a huge Meat and Potato pie we have you covered. We also stock our always popular Beef George’s and Lamb Henrys. These are individual porBons of meat le2 on the bone for full flavour. The lamb is then marinated in Mint and the Beef is in a Salt and Pepper Glaze. Pot roast for 3-‐4 hours or alternaBvely leave in the slow cooker while you go to work for a delicious meal you can serve when you get home.
The shooBng season is upon us also and as a result we will have a variety of game birds in stock as they become available. These include Grouse, Partridge and Pheasant. Don’t worry if you have never cooked game before as advice is always on hand.
We will also be taking orders for our famous pies for both Halloween and Bonfire night. If you are having a party and need to cater for the masses our Family Steak pies feed around 10 people and just need warming and serving, or you could always go for the tradiBonal pork pie and mushy peas.
All of these products can be found alongside our extended range menBoned in the last issue of the Breeze, so if you need any pantry items or ingredients to help you prepare these dishes please pop in and have a browse.
All the best,
Addys

Country Watch with Jack Snittle
Safeguarding Yorkshire’s Gold Reserves !Many of us in Yorkshire don’t know it, but we’re sat on one of the world’s most wonderful natural resources. !Forget Gold, forget Platinum. Not oil, gas or coal (or rhubarb!). I’m talking about a resource so plentiful we see it every day. We walk on it and it shelters us from the rain. Yet it’s so valuable that scumbags, scroats and shysters travel in gangs to pillage it by night. !I’m talking about Yorkshire stone. A raw materials par excellence. So versatile it’s been used for flagstones, roofing, walling (coursed, random, dry stone, snack and jump), kerbs, cobbles, copings and slabs. Our location, in the foothills of the Penines, places us right in the centre of the Yorkshire triangle. !Along with wool, turbochargers and set-top box technology, it’s one of West Yorkshires finest exports. If you don’t believe me look at London’s finest kerbs and pavements- see that Yorkshire flags pave the revitalised Belfast Harbour- and wonder at the fact that it’s exported from here- the li’l old Holme Valley- for projects as far afield as Finland, Japan and the US of A. !So maybe now we can see why we’re constantly seeing roofs part-stripped, wall toppings taken and random flags lifted around the valley. Unscrupulous ne’er-do-wells thieve by night and e bay by day. Enough I say! Let’s all be vigilant and catch these lowlifes- before there are no roofs left!

!What a busy few months we have had …
We have said good bye to a few of our children at the end of summer who are moving up to “Big School” and very excited they are too. To help their transition we have had some visits to school and played in Mrs Koltuk’s class room. The children were very impressed with their school dinners too! We have also welcomed a few new faces and still have spaces for 3yrs + so please get in touch with us if you would like your child to start preschool in the village.
What a fantastic summer term we had, with some lovely weather, we had lots of outdoor fun. The children love playing in the chapel gardens and going for walks around the village. We really do live in such a lovely place.
The Chapel held a tea and cakes morning during Le Tour de France weekend. They have kindly donated ½ the takings to the preschool and we plan to use this to take all our children on a special outing when we get back from our holidays. Thank you very much to all who were involved.
The Tour de France really was spectacular and it was great for families to get involved. We had our own mini Tour de France with our tricycles and the children had fun chasing each other. They also produced some fantastic artwork (handprints in the shape of a bicycle). This was displayed as part of a giant cycling jersey at Bridge Mills over le Tour De Yorkshire weekend.
As well as all our normal fun things; cooking, painting, drawing, singing, role-playing, number work, letter work, phonics and dancing, we also had a visit to Holmfirth police station to complement our “Public Services” topic – thank you to Sgt Hughes who showed us around the building, let the children sit in a real police car (with the sirens on!), try on a police officer’s jacket, handcuffs, hat and look at truncheon. The children thoroughly enjoyed their visit and when they returned to the preschool they had great fun putting Jane and Lyndsay in the mock jail area. In fact, they have been left there all summer! (ha-ha)
The Hade Edge gala was a huge success and the preschool children looked wonderful in their animal costumes. Well done everyone! Very well done to Sam and Zoe S for winning the animal costume competition, to Millie T for winning the animal print artwork and to Lucie G for coming 3rd in the children’s chocolate cupcake competition. Thanks also go to the parents and staff who helped run stalls on behalf of the preschool and to Sally Swindell for organising all our stalls. Our village gala really does get bigger and better every year.
Thank you for all your continuous support over the last term, and we look forward to the term ahead.

Hade Edge Band
A warm welcome to you all from the Band and we hope you all had a pleasant summer in Hade Edge. Since our last report in The Breeze the Band have had a very busy schedule during the Spring and leading up to the summer break in August.
During May and June the Band performed at many of their tradiBonal venues: Whit Friday, Morley, Brighouse also this year at Brockholes Gala, and especially at the Durham Miners Gala in July which was so well supported by the public this year the bands had great difficulty ge\ng through the streets of Durham. It was esBmated that there were in excess of 120,000 spectators at the event this year and the Band enjoyed playing once again for the village of Sacriston. For this year in parBcular, during June and July the Band were involved in events linked into the Tour De France through Yorkshire FesBval and their sponsors Welcome to Yorkshire. The open-‐air concert at the Band Room in June, as part of The Tour De Brass concert events (only 8 Bands were chosen in the whole of the Yorkshire region), was very well supported and comments a2erwards from villagers that we should make the concert an annual event in Hade Edge at the Band Room. The weekend of the Tour De France was a magical weekend for the Band. The building and field were open to many visitors from far and wide who visited Yorkshire and especially our region.The bacon bu\es etc served in the Band Room were a delight to everyone who parked on the field or who were passing the Band Room on their way to Holme Moss. The disrupBon in the village appeared to be well managed and did not disrupt the village life too much on the day. In fact it was lovely to see so many visitors in the village.
Now into September the Band have a very busy schedule this month, playing at Homfirth Civic Hall for the Friends of Holme Valley Hospital, and the following day playing in the Hardraw Scar Contest up in the Dales to defend our Btle of Winners in 2013. The following weekend the Band are at Wetherby Bandstand for a pleasant Sunday a2ernoon concert and then on Sunday 28th September an evening concert at The Carding Shed, Hepworth with guest soloist Johnny Bates, Solo Horn player with Black Dyke Band. Tickets are available from the Band, but please get them early as the last concert was a sell-‐out.
In October we will be holding a “Subscribers” Concert in the Band Room on Thursday 30th October. This will replace the usual rehearsal for the Band on this night and everyone is welcome to come along – you don’t have to be a Subscriber/Friend of Hade Edge, but you may wish to sign-‐up on the night. Please come along and support your local village Brass Band – we depend on you for the future of the Band and remember we are less than 4 years away from our 110thanniversary celebraBons in 2018 of the Bands formaBon in 1908.

The plans to gain much needed income in order to maintain The Edgar Dickinson Building and the Home of Hade Edge Band have seen the building being used by various groups and acBviBes over the last few months including a pre-‐wedding recepBon gathering, exam boards ,concerts and the perfect place to rest during the Tour De France event.
One important event that the villagers can support is the Candlelighter’s event (Children’s Cancer Charity) which will take place on Saturday 4th October in the Band Room. There will be lots of stalls etc for you to support and get involved in on this day. Please call in and see what it is all about. We will post more informaBon on this event as we get it. Please read our noBce board.
We are also very excited that Kirklees College have chosen our venue for Adult Learning Classes that will take place from September 2014. Classes on Healthy Cooking, Yoga, Sewing and Upholstery are being organised by the College. Please go to their website if you are interested in joining any of these classes: their website is www.kirkleescollege.ac.uk or call the College on 01484 437070 for more details. Classes will take place over Monday/Tuesday and Wednesday’s of each week and it is hoped that villagers will join and support these classes which for the very first Bme will take place in your home village Band Room.
To end the year we have a very exciBng concert coming up on Sunday 21st December in the evening at the Carding Shed, Hepworth. The Christmas concert will be full of fesBve music and food for the occasion and the Band will be joined by those wonderful ladies from Denby Dale Ladies Choir.

!!Smiles from the Aisles
I remember when tenders were being submiAed for the construcBon of the Channel Tunnel. McAlpine had submiAed one for £50 million. Wimpey’s was £49 million. However, Fred and Charlie Entwistle’s quote was for £2 million. When the appropriate Ministry official quesBoned the intrepid duo how they were going to achieve this monumental project for just £2 million, the reply was – Fred will start digging from Dover and Charlie will start digging from Calais. “Ah” said the official, “what if you don’t meet in the middle?” “Well” said Fred and Charlie, “you’ll have two tunnels, won’t you!”
