PCC Report
The role of the PCC is to ‘promote in the parish the whole mission of the Church by spreading the Christian Faith’.
The Covid pandemic continued to affect us for much of 2021 in various ways. The PCC once again extend their thanks to all the parishioners for their efforts in supporting the parish during those difficult times. There were some extra PCC meetings due to the extraordinary measures that had to be put in place during the year.
At the start of the year the Rector, Revd Pam Davies, unfortunately was admitted into hospital and was unable to return to ministry for the remainder of the year. The Rector has expressed how difficult this has been for the PCC and is grateful to the PCC and many others who have stepped up during the year to keep the church’s going. Our thanks go to PJ for chairing meetings in her absence and all the members for their help at this time.
The PCC met on eight occasions in 2021. The first six were ‘Zoom’ online meetings, hosted from the Rectory, and chaired by the Vice-Chairman, PJ Rutherford. The final two were able to be held in person at Ide Hill Village hall. The APCM, on 28 April 2021, was a Zoom meeting. Recent changes to Church Representation Rules in 2020 now enable us to conduct electronic meetings for important matters between normal meetings. There were three of these during the year.
There were many topics discussed during the year. A number of discussions were had about coping with the parish needs in the absence of the Rector and talks are ongoing with the Diocese. We are grateful for their assistance in providing a regular Minister for a couple of services a month and the services of Revd Tim Edwards, providing pastoral care and some of the Offices. There was also still a need to discuss the Government guidelines and policies with regard to the Pandemic. However, it was possible to start conducting ‘live’ funerals and Baptisms in our churches, much to our delight.
Our grateful thanks go to our Safeguarding Officer, Di Pickard, for all her hard work. She has a very important role to fulfil in the life of the Parish and carries this out with great skill and enthusiasm, especially given that the job is immense and complicated.
After many years’ service for the church at Sundridge, Ginny Ashworth stepped down as a PCC member but continues to support the church in many other ways and our thanks go to Ginny for that service to the parish.
There are still vacancies to serve on the PCC so why not consider standing for election? This is a vital part of our Parish work and you can contribute, not just for yourself, but on behalf of others as well to the life of our churches.

Safeguarding Report
3
During the year, no incidents have been reported to the safeguarding officer.
The pandemic continued to limit face to face activities. As private prayer and church services have begun to be allowed again, risk assessments have been undertaken to ensure appliance to ever changing Covid regulations and guidance.
Safeguarding Sunday (October 10[th] ) was marked in the church service that day with a thoughtful sermon and prayers by Rev Canon Katrina Barnes.
Safeguarding training for the clergy and PCC members is up to date.
Diana Pickard - Parish Safeguarding Officer
St Mary’s Sundridge – Churchwardens’ Report
Covid was still with us in various mutant forms so it was, once again, a year of one step forward and sometimes one step back again.
Sadly, the Rector went on sick leave in January and was unable to be with us for the rest of the year. I would like to thank all the vast array of visiting clergy who made possible the continuing of services in our parish during our Incumbent’s absence – and also give my immense thanks to Jane Belle who volunteered for the herculean task of arranging a rota so that we had a priest to take every one of our services, not just at Sundridge but also at Ide Hill and at Toys Hill. Zoom services also continued from February till July.
During lock-down (which lock-down? – it all seems to have melded into one in the memory), the church was open for private prayer on Wednesdays and Sundays in order to comply with the necessity of having 72 hours to disinfect the church between openings. I am most grateful to those who participated in this.
On Mothering Sunday, with the church still not open, Jane Belle very generously provided posies which were distributed to families both within and beyond the immediate parish.
And, yea, on Easter Day, 4[th] April, we had our first live service for some time which was taken by Revd Lynette Leithead.
The death, and then funeral, of HRH The Duke of Edinburgh was marked in the village by the ringing of peels of muffled bells.
Our first wedding since lock down took place on July 31[st] and was a very joyous occasion indeed.
4
Our service of Harvest Thanksgiving took place on September 19[th] , earlier than usual but, as Jane Rosam – herself a farmer – said, that was appropriate, given how much earlier the gathering in of the harvest has now become.
Canon Katrina Barnes very kindly began to take two services a month within the parish in October and we are enormously grateful to her for her wonderful services, including our Remembrance Sunday service.
The school was still in lock-down mode in the run-up to the Christingle service, but we did hold the service nevertheless - having given the school the various component parts for them to make their own Christingles within the school – and it was delightful to welcome over 60 children and families from the villages to the service.
The Carol Service was cancelled, due to the spread of Covid at that stage. However, the Midnight Communion did take place.
We were very lucky to have George Hancock with us as our permanent organist and we were most grateful to him for his devoted playing for us at both churches.
I would like also to thank our wonderful teams of bell ringers and of flower arrangers – and a special vote of thanks to Peter Duke who spent many engineering hours trying to understand why the boiler kept conking out.
And, finally, I would like to express my huge gratitude to my co-Warden Barbara Lockey, who stood down as Churchwarden at the APCM in April after several years of dedicated and very innovative service. Her knowledge of village life has been of inestimable value, her outlook one always of optimism, enthusiasm, outgoingness and sheer hard work. Oh – and practicality – her professional understanding of the sound system and her detective abilities with the boiler were in constant demand. And are still as I write this in April 2022, as she continues to offer her unstinting support.
Althea Chapman
’ - St Mary s Sundridge Fabric Report
Despite Lockdown, during 2021 St Mary’s Sundridge Fabric Committee (Althea Chapman, Barbara Lockey, Ginny Ashworth, Kenneth Ludlam and Jane Belle) were still busy keeping the church in good order, contact was mainly by email and telephone until October when a face to face meeting took place. Design for two Nave handrails have finally been approved and a Faculty granted. We hope work will commence in June 2022.
Various webinars were attended on Church lighting, heating, metal theft and Net Zero Carbon and some of the information may be used in the future.
Bertie Boiler was serviced in September but our main thanks go to the talented Peter Duke who has done marvels, fitted the equipment necessary and caringly coaxed Bertie the Boiler to function.
Many thanks to Dean Gregory and Melody for blocking up the entrances into the Chancel at very high level that bees had discovered and were causing a nuisance
5
at Holy Communion (presumably they wanted to be blessed too!). Dean also treated the Tower Room partition to eliminate woodworm.
Thanks once again to Nigel Belle for various repairs around the church and for restoring the Bible Box . This ancient oak box is quite an unusual item, even our esteemed conservation architect, John Bailey, has not seen one before.
The usual clearing of gullies and removal of ivy and vegetation took place and the Memorial Stones in the churchyard were cleaned by some of the team. The Quinquennial Electrical Survey took place and the snaggings and minor defects found were addressed. The PAT and Fire Extinguisher tests took place. On 20[th] December the CCTV was serviced and it was found that the main “box” had failed. It was felt imperative that the system should be repaired a.s.a.p. with the long Christmas break looming and the fact that the church would not therefore be covered by insurance for any theft from the church or churchyard. Our very grateful thanks to The Friends for supporting this emergency and funding the replacement equipment.
The Fabric Committee are very grateful to the Bell Captain, Rita Cox and Ringers, Maggie Amos and Joanne Rutter who keep the belfry and ringing chamber in good order.

2021 was a strange year – it started and ended with strict Covid restrictions but there were a few highlights in the middle! Most of the Friends committee meetings took place via Zoom as did the AGM in May. The officers were all re-elected and the Executive Committee remained the same as in 2020 with an additional member Barbara Lockey.
It was impossible to hold any of the usual events until July when a Garden Tea Party was held at The Red House (invitation of Nigel & Jane Belle). It was a glorious, sunny and hot day. The Friends worked hard to make this a success and there were over 70 visitors who had a truly scrumptious homemade tea! The visitors were delighted to be meeting with friends and making new ones, and felt safe in this open air location. Nigel put photographs showing the flowering of plants that had taken place earlier in the year. A classic MGA car was on display with a ride in it as one of the raffle prizes! Plant, produce stalls and raffle all helped raise a marvellous total of over £1,000.
On 4[th] August Bob Ogley gave us a treat with one of his amazing talks – this time about his life as a Newspaper Reporter – it was fascinating and following Covid rules the Friends managed to provide refreshments whilst many questions were asked of Bob.
Once again the Friends supported the brilliant suggestion by Sally Dunckley of organising a “Flowers on the Door”, this time held 7/8[th] August allowing everyone to join in by brightening their gates, doors and gardens and to share a little happiness with others.
The Friends final event for 2021 on 10[th] November was a talk by our Conservation Architect, John Bailey, and entitled “The Life of your Church Architect”. So very
6
interesting, he told us a little about some of the Cathedrals and other Churches he looks after. We are very fortunate that this very busy and dedicated man still loves St Mary’s Sundridge and is prepared to continue as our architect. The 3 events (two talks and the flowers on the doors) raised a marvellous £520 to help with the care and preservation of St Mary’s Sundridge.
The postponed visit to Chevening House will take place in 2022 but unfortunately Bore Place are still uncertain about visits, so that outing is still ‘on hold’. Please view the marvellous Friends of St Mary’s website (many thanks to Richard Dunckley who constructed and maintains it) to view pictures of these events and much more.

St Mary’s Ide Hill – Church Team Report
I would like to start with a huge thank you to our Ide Hill team who have kept our Church open as much as possible in 2021 doing much behind the scenes in a year where we had to be careful yet had much to be thankful for.
Things are always done by the people that show up in this world rather than those who have lots to say and I would like to pay tribute to our only Parish Church Warden, Althea Chapman, who does so much for our Parish all hours in the absence, sadly, of our incumbent Pam Davies who is still not able to be at work.
The year started with our Church only open two days a week for private prayer but Pam put some plans in place along with good ideas from others for Lent. Sadly Pam was hospitalised late January and has not been able to return, however The Worship in the Wilderness programme still continued to celebrate Lent. I would also pay tribute to our PCC secretary, Trevor Davies, who has done much to help cover Church matters while also taking care of Pam.
Ide Hill also enjoys much support from our friends from Sundridge and Toys Hill as we have tried to get on with our Church program and we thank all visiting clergy who have filled in. Of course, we are most fortunate to still have the services of Angela Baker and Ruth Barrow who do so much to help in our Parish.
One of the highlights of 2021 was the establishment of the Friends of Ide Hill Church which will raise money to help with improvements to our beautiful Church and well done to all who are involved and Jane Rossi for getting this up and running.
We also welcomed a new PCC Treasurer, Robert Skone James, who is doing an excellent job looking after our finances when Covid has affected our Church life.
Sadly, Sally and Peter Bawn have moved away. We would like to thank Sally for her help and support over the last two years and wish them every happiness in their new home.

As the restrictions allowed, we slowly managed to have services, baptisms and funerals and our thanks to all those who have done the safety assessments and controls to keep us all safe.
Trevor may have covered this in his report but although we are an active and willing team in Ide Hill, we are always looking for more helpers, readers, Wardens, sides men, cleaners and much more so if you are reading this and feel you could help then please get hold of Trevor or myself and be part of our team.
In 2021 we received a generous donation from The Ide Hill Community shop to replace our handrail from the gate to the Church and we also plan to repair the pathway in the near future.
We would also like to thank Rev Tim Edwards who has been helping with Pastoral care and zoom services etc as well as support in the absence of our Rector.
As ever there are many people who have helped us and thanks again go to the Bugle team for getting our news and notices out into the community that we are indeed open for business and a safe place for everyone to worship and feel welcome.
PJ Rutherford & St Mary's Ide Hill team.
Fabric Report St Mary’s Ide Hill
In years past the handrail that runs alongside the path from the lychgate to the church had been repaired and sections replaced, but it was felt that its condition had deteriorated to the point where total replacement was required. The metal posts supporting the handrail were deemed to be fundamentally sound and were stripped and repainted. The handrail was replaced in its entirety, and stained and varnished in the style of the old one. We are very grateful to the management of the village shop in providing most of the funding for this essential work. The balance was provided by an anonymous donor from the village, to whom we also offer our thanks. Apart from this fairly large undertaking, work on the fabric of the church has been confined largely to maintenance of the floodlights in the churchyard, the wiring of the lights in the lychgate and various small, but necessary, repairs to the induction loop wiring and a ring main outlet in the church.

’ - St Mary s Church, Ide Hill Churchyard Report
I would like to thank John Grundy most sincerely for his 35 years’ service as Churchyard administrator in Ide Hill. John was also Church Warden in Ide Hill for many years and has handed over the Churchyard Admin to me until we find the right person for this role.
8
The Churchyard is kindly looked after by Paul and Maggie Meredith who allow us the services of their gardener with grass cutting, hedge trimming and much more besides.
The flowers in the Churchyard are admired by all throughout the year although a tidy up now and again is needed to collect old plastic tributes, vases, etc.
We have had requests from relatives looking for graves and also the Commonwealth War Graves Commission who sometimes check on graves they are responsible for and we try and accommodate all requests.
We were most grateful to be able to replace the timber handrail due to the donation from our village shop and this was done with advice from Peter Wade, who ,along with Dr Neil Arnott, still attends to maintenance issues in the Church. Our thanks go to both Neil and Peter for all they do for our building and our most useful “Engineer “Peter Duke who attends to our Fabric including boiler, lights, heating, music etc.
It has been decided to use the same contractors/masons that are used in Sundridge and our thanks again to our hardworking Warden, Althea Chapman for setting this up.
The Churchyard continues to provide a resting place for the Parish and local community and lastly I would like to thank all who have helped to make these often solemn occasions go smoothly.

- Toys Hill Church Report
As last year, the year has been dominated by Covid, the accompanying restrictions on Worship and the Rector’s illness.
Ed Dixon has, as he has over so many years, made sure that the fabric of the Hall and Chancel is kept in good condition, including organising the repair of the chancel ceiling – funded by the Village Hall Committee. We also held a very productive cleaning morning and thanks are due to Prue Seddon for organising the cleaning of the Brass.
Simon Pickard led Services until Jane Rosam and Rev. Adie McCall stepped in to lead formal services of Morning Worship and Holy Communion.
I can’t emphasise enough how appreciated Jane and Adie are and this is reflected in the size of the Congregation. It’s also lovely to see Jane in the Congregation when she isn’t leading the Service.
The Services are pleasingly well attended and attract families who are new to the village as well as the usual suspects. Music was a mix of live playing by Helen Isom – who also donated 50 pre-loved hymn books - and recordings of Choirs, Gospel Singers and others.
Sadly, Carol Singing and the Crib Service – both heavily pre-booked – had to be cancelled.

We much appreciated Adie McCall coming along on Christmas Day to give us Holy Communion.
Thanks, as every year, to Ed Dixon for all his work in the running and setting up and to the cohort of readers, flower providers etc.

Deanery Synod Report
Area Dean, Rev Michael Gentry led the meetings together with Lay Chairman Brig. Ian Dobbie. In January Treasurer, Ron Drury stepped down and Rev Robin Jones was appointed. In April the Area Dean recommended to all Parishes “Thy Kingdom Come” a directive from Rochester Diocese being aware of the great challenges faced by so many over the last year, so they pivoted their resources to be (what is hoped) a real help to churches, schools or in the home a gathered, online, or hybrid approach . They also offered huge free resources for parishes in the hope that whatever age or tradition, these resources will spiritually nourish and encourage.
At the July Synod meeting elections for Diocesan Synod were held by Zoom for 2 lay members and 3 clergy. Brig. Ian Dobbie was elected. Clergy were not quorate so no election could take place. Rev Jane Winter gave a presentation on Living in Love and Faith; about sexuality and the Church of England. Anne le Bas reported on Anna Chaplaincy (dementia in old age) she is the Sevenoaks representative and willing to give talks to parishes.
Rev Michael Gentry retired as Area Dean to take up his new post as Associate Rector at Chelsfield with Green St. Green & Pratts Bottom. Rev Canon Anne le Bas was appointed new Area Dean . The Bishop of Rochester retired in July- his farewell party had to be cancelled due to Covid restrictions. Appointment of new Bishop unlikely until Spring 2022. It was reported that Westerham’s new Rector is Rev David Fox-Branch; Brasted Church is suspended; and Rev Pam Davies, Sundridge with Ide Hill & Toys Hill is off sick. Other clergy are helping with services and Rev Tim Edwards with pastoral work. Rev James, vicar of Kemsing has moved to Scarborough. Rev Mandy Carr might take on Leigh as well because Rev Lionel Kevis is considering retirement next year.
Also reported were changes from May to Marriage Registration which is now done online. Parishes should keep their own records
The second Synod meeting held in November at St Nicholas Church, Sevenoaks – met in reality but all members required to wear masks. A video message was sent by Graham Wilkinson who is Archdeaconry Growth Enabler and adviser to Parishes. Keith Berry commentated. Gerry O’Brien explained the process about selection of the next Bishop of Rochester – 12 people are selected, then reduced to 5 men and 5 women, then further reduced to 4, in January 2022 a name will be submitted to the Queen for approval. A report about General Synod in July was accepted from Rev Angus MacLeay (retiring after a total of 22 years on General Synod) . He reported that there were many debates including safeguarding, links with Methodists, new slogan for CoE to be “simpler, humbler, bolder” Living in Love and Faith where there is much consultation to be done on this issue relating to human sexuality and it will be the new General Synod which will be involved in decision-making, probably at the end of 2022. The intention is for parishes to respond by the end of 2021, then these responses considered in 2022 by the
10
House of Bishops, followed by discussion at General Synod which might, possibly, result in a relevant resolution!

Diocesan Synod Report
There was a meeting in March via Zoom; Bishop Simon acknowledged the exhaustion and inertia that many people felt caused by the pandemic, no one knew what to expect or how they would feel. It had been like running a marathon, but the pandemic gave an amazing opportunity to do great things for the Lord and that all was needed to make the longed-for breakthrough was to work harder than ever before – like asking a marathon finisher to go and immediately run 1500 metres as fast as they could. And so the Church needed time to recover, its people needed to recover. And everyone had got to learn kindness for themselves as well as for others. Recovery would happen at different speeds, for different people and parishes, as surely as people’s experience of Covid itself had varied.
The 5 points of mission were discussed and the role of Growth Enablers. Synod approved the review of the Called Together refocused priorities, namely:- (1) Enabling each church to be mission-minded; (2) Helping children, young people, and adults live out everyday faith in Jesus; (3) Supporting loving service in local communities; (4) Encouraging, and responding to, the prophetic voice of justice and peace; and (5) Protecting creation’s life for future generations.
Clergy welfare was discussed and synod agreed to adopt the Covenant for Clergy Care and Wellbeing, synod was also informed that the Clergy Disciplinary Measure was under review.
Finance for 2020: there was currently an operating deficit of approximately £0.9m slightly higher than budgeted but significantly lower than might have been feared earlier in the year. Parish Offers at the end of the year amounted to £8.39m (5.7% below budget). Mr Pope thanked parishes for the contributions they had been able to make. A Continuity Grant of £320,000 towards the Covid-related deficit had been received from the National Church Institutions. Cost savings of £214k below budget had been achieved. A total of 48 grants of £5,000 each were made to 37 parishes in the greatest need from the diocesan Covid-19 Emergency Relief Fund. Safeguarding and Rochester Diocesan Spirituality Network reports were received.
The June meeting (zoom) was the last that Bishop James led as he retired in July. Synod adopted the 2020 accounts: income being £10.6M, costs £11.5M. Diocesan elections for 2021-2024 took place, results for Sevenoaks Deanery were: House of Clergy: Rev Matt Taylor (St Nicholas).House of Laity: Mrs Jane Belle (Sundridge w Ide Hill & Toys Hill) Mr Gerry O'Brien(St Nicholas, Sevenoaks), Mrs Lela Weavers (Chevening) so two more lay people are required from our deanery and three more clergy. In October General Synod elections took place: Rev Tim Edwards, Rev Lindsay Llewellyn-Macduff and Jane Rosam all known to us and people who have helped our Parish were elected – please pray for them.
The final synod of the year took place in November Bishop Simon gave the Presidential address and announced the retirement of Ven. Dr Paul Wright Archdeacon of Bromley & Bexley in February 2022. There was an update on Safeguarding and Synod authorised the expenditure for the Common Fund not
11
exceeding £13.5M. Parish offers had fallen 19.2% over last 4 years. Funding required from a benefice is £79,000. Living in Love & Faith, Called Together and many other topics were reported on. In December I was appointed by Bishop’s Council to the Diocesan Advisory Committee for a further 6 years much to my surprise and delight!

Sharp Memorial School for the Blind
PM and Sumana Samuel, who joined the school 34 years ago and have done a brilliant job in building up the school, were due to retire December 2021 but sadly PM has died from COVID. However he had been preparing his successors, Ancy John, so she was able to step in and take over the running of the school. She has since been joined by Site Manager, Amik Singh. The school has been affected by COVID as the government forbad the boarding of children. So the teachers under Mrs Rogers have done as much online teaching as they could but not all the poorer children have access to the internet and also the young children need to learn social skills and tactile learning. The older girls were allowed back to take their external examinations.
Fortunately one of the last things PM was working on was an agreement from the government to accept money from overseas and Ancy was able to complete this so it is good we can still continue to send support to them.

The Florence Harding Fund - Treasurer’s Report
Income for the year fell to £4,256.86 (2020: £4,713.58) as a result of lower interest rates. Payments of £358.68 were made for Bibles.
The Balance Sheet shows that General Fund has increased to £181,984.47 (2020: £165,421.78) due to global stock markets holding up through the pandemic.

Bible Study and Prayer groups @Finches, Ide Hill
The Tuesday Bible Group has not been able to meet regularly during the year because of Covid restrictions.
However, we did meet on three consecutive Tuesdays during Advent. Six or seven of us enjoyed looking at Old and New Testament passages about the coming of Jesus.
The Friday Prayer Group met throughout the year when allowed, but by December numbers were so low it was decided to merge it with the Tuesday Group.
Angela Baker and Ruth Barrow
Sundridge and Brasted CEP School
We know that we can make a difference by showing kindness through our words and actions. We strive to have a positive impact every day.
January and February saw us in another lockdown situation with the school being closed to most of the children. Once again, we were open for children of critical workers and vulnerable children only. Our newly installed Microsoft Office 365 software proved to be a wonderful asset enabling our remote learning programme to be delivered to all children and accessed easily by all. We started every day with a ‘Good Morning Everyone’ session and finished with a whole school celebration, with each class delivering 2 live teaching sessions every day plus work and activities set online.
We also introduced a number of non-screen days which were extremely successful including live sessions with a drama coach, a local farm and World Book Day – all achieved with remote access and delivered to those at home and in school.
In March, it was so good to see everyone back in school and gradually, following Government guidance, we were able to broaden the school experience, reintroduce after school activity clubs, visitors and trips. We established links with pen pals in Brazil through the Sevenoaks partnership and a care home in Cumbria through the Literacy Trust and participated in a NewsWise programme courtesy of the Guardian newspaper organisation.
Our History week was a great success as we worked from family trees, to local history, to British history and then world history events encompassing research, art, design and technology and presentation skills throughout the week. The highlight of the week was our visit from Mr Tony Hall who came into school to talk about the village, the changes through the years and his life here. He kindly brought newspaper articles, photograph albums and medals to share with us which were fascinating and a wonderful addition to the week’s activities and learning.
We were delighted to be able to end the academic year with a whole school sports event with parents attending and a wonderful day trip to Drusilla’s Zoo for all the
13
children which were lovely finales to a troubled and difficult year of COVID related guidance and concerns.
In September we returned to school with a full complement of children and staff ready to engage in a new year, full of potential and hopefully, free of prohibitive COVID restrictions. September also saw the start of our collaboration with Kemsing Primary School, as I took on the role of executive head there. I head up both schools; spending half the week with each school and working closely with each staff team and school community. We share resources, expertise and training for the benefit of both school communities. It is a challenging role but working well.
We resumed swimming lessons at Radnor House, and Mr Lopez from St Michael’s Prep School joined us to run additional PE sessions with all classes and Sevenoaks School sent us students once a week to help in classes and run a mud kitchen for the Early Years children. We were also able to participate in local sports events which were scaled down somewhat in order to comply with COVID guidance but it was great to be able to meet children and staff from other schools.
Dr Sue Leather from Westerham Church joined us to lead Collective Worship once a week and additional special services in school.
We continued throughout the year to support the wider community by raising awareness through activities in school and raising money to donate to charities; Loaves and Fishes foodbank; #helloyellow; Children in Need; the British Legion and Save the Children UK.
During the summer holidays we were able to install double height fences around our football pitch plus permanent football posts and basketball hoops in the top playground. We also re-tarmacked the front playground which now doubles as a roadway complete with junctions, parking bays and stop signs, which all make a wonderful addition to our Early Years’ provision.
We are also immensely grateful to Mr and Mrs Jack for the extended use of their grounds during lockdown and into the summer term. The additional space to exercise and play was very much appreciated.
With regard to COVID itself, we were extremely fortunate to be COVID free for much of the year but after September the number of cases was consistent but very low. Just one of our teachers tested positive during the year.
FOSBS (Friends of Sundridge & Brasted School) were also busy when restrictions allowed and organised a number of fun, fund raising, activities for the children. I am grateful for their support, time and energy. The money they raise enables us to purchase additional resources for the children.
In other news, we now have a defibrillator kindly donated to us by the Sevenoaks CPR Charity. After raising sufficient funds to purchase the cabinet, we installed the defibrillator unit on the outside of the school building, for use by the school and the community.
Finally, I would like to thank the staff, our parents and the community for their support throughout the year. It has been a challenging year for the staff who all
14
worked incredibly hard to offer the best possible learning for the children, throughout the early lockdown and in school and I am immensely proud of them all and grateful for their hard work and commitment to the school. We have a wonderful team, both governors and staff, committed to providing an inspiring learning environment for the children, ensuing that they all reach their potential and enjoy a broad and engaging experience throughout their years with us. The children and families have also been amazing, handling the year with great fortitude, creativity and strength.
With very best wishes to you all. I hope you continue to stay safe and well.
Tom Hardwick Headteacher, Sundridge & Brasted CE Primary School,
Ide Hill School
Whilst 2021 was another year with much to celebrate, it was not without its challenges! By living our vision of “do everything in love” and harnessing the metier, resilience and fortitude of our whole school community, the Ide Hill Primary School community continued to flourish throughout the year.
As we returned to school in January there were only a small number of children attending, with the vast majority of our children learning from home. Our staff team were working exceptionally hard each day to facilitate learning for children both on and offsite and our parents gave a valiant effort as they juggled their home/work commitments to supervise remote learning. We were so impressed with the way families rose to this challenge. As we worked throughout lockdown, we made sure that we reminded all of our stakeholders to be kind to themselves and our key focus was on supporting one another, ensuring that families were safe as we got through the difficult times together.
In February we celebrated Children’s Mental Health week with a variety of activities to support the theme “express yourself”. This included a Zoom celebration whereby children could dress in any way that helped to express themselves; we had a range of different outfits on show during the session including football kits, gymnastic leotards, a cowboy hat, sparkly skirts, lego tops and favourite jumpers worn!
As Spring approached, we were delighted that most children had returned physically to school. We celebrated World Book Day in March which is always a thoroughly enjoyable day. Also in March our PE Coach, Mr Taylor, jetted off to Montserrat to play at the FIFA World Cup Qualifiers on both the 25thMarch and the 28th March. The children thoroughly enjoyed keeping up with games remotely and we of course had regular updates from Mr Taylor himself.
As we moved into the Summer Term, the school supported various fundraising events including raising over £1,000.00 for the Rojo Rojo Orphanage in Kenya. We were determined that our School Sports Day would go ahead as usual. Our entire school community had a wonderful day celebrating success and participation.
15
The children enjoyed several school trips throughout the summer, including Carroty Wood Activity Centre in July, as well as a school trip to Hever Castle, which included an introduction to triathlon events.
Our Year 6 leavers’ assembly was, as always, a fabulous occasion and the whole school community were sad to see the children leave us but we had the knowledge that they will continue their academic path with the determination and sense of fun that they were known for at Ide Hill.
As always, the holidays flew by and we soon returned to school in September. It was extremely nice to start the term with slightly more normality than in the recent past, but we were mindful that our children had experienced very fragmented schooling due to the pandemic and we were therefore focused on catering for not only their educational needs but also their emotional and social ones in order to get them ready for learning. The last time our year 6 children experienced a full school year, they were in year 3. This means that our children in reception and KS1 have never experienced a full school year. The Harvest Festival was much enjoyed by our children and families donated generously to the food collection.
The Autumn Term was extremely busy! Due to the parental leave of our Headteacher, we were delighted to welcome Mrs Caroline Cain as our Interim Executive Head and Miss Jeanine Johnson as our Acting Head of School. We celebrated Remembrance Sunday by having a whole school collective worship led by year 6. This focussed on people from the commonwealth who fought in the World Wars and the children shared poetry they had written. Elsewhere in the school, every class made poppy wreaths and talked about the War along different themes. Year 3 looked at the War from the perpesctive of the children who were affected by it and made a poppy wreath in the shape of a rainbow. Year R looked at a cbeebeies video about remembrance. Year 2 explored remembrance by looking at the service animals who helped during the war and made a purple poppy wreath. We took the wreaths up to church where they were used as our contribution to their remembrance service last Sunday.
Sparkle and Shine, Anti-bullying week, Children in Need and the start of Nativity rehersals also kept us busy. The school nativity “Hey Ewe” was once again a roaring success as the children dazzled with their performances.
As 2021 came to a close, we had much to celebrate and ended with a sense of positivity, thankfulness and hope.

St Mary’s Bell Ringers, Sundridge
After a long break from ringing, we were very pleased to be able resume practice and ringing for services in May. We were, after a break of several years, very pleased to welcome back to ringing, Paul Brown. New learner Ginny is making excellent progress and is almost ready to join the band to ring for services.
16
Despite restrictions, our Captain, Rita, was able to toll a bell when the death of The Duke of Edinburgh was announced, and again on the day of his funeral. The bells were also rung for the funerals of Donald Brown, Bryan Lockey, and Alan Norman.
Three of the ringers took part in the basic safeguarding course,
We had a visit by a band of ringers from Basingstoke, who completed a peal, and another visit by a band from Kingston, who completed a quarter peal.
In November, Rita tolled a bell 100 times to commemorate 100 years since the founding of the Royal British Legion.
We understand that the concern over emergency lighting on the stairs, is soon to be resolved.
Anyone interested in visiting the tower or learning to ring, can contact Rita Cox (captain) on 01732 750324 or email maggieamos43@yahoo.co.uk

St Marys Sundridge with Ide Hill & Toys Hill PCC Finance Report year ending Dec 2021
I took over as Treasurer from Maria Lewington in May 2021and I am very grateful for all her help since then and indeed her help continues as I get to grips with so many new issues!
The accounts have been independently examined and summarised in the accompanying spreadsheet. Like 2020, 2021 has been a difficult year due to the pandemic. We have to continue to pay for utilities, insurances and other costs whether we hold services or not. We are indebted to our regular givers who have enabled us to do that and to put on some services when the law permitted. We also managed to claim some compensation from our insurance for the fact that the Rector was incapacitated since Jan 2021 and with that, and a substantially reduced offer to the Diocese, we have managed to achieve a small surplus.
.
Gift Aid from HMRC and VAT from the LPWG Scheme has been claimed for the year and are included in the accounts.
The PCC’s offer to the Diocese of Rochester was £22,000 (down from £33,345.00 in 2020), and the nominated charities by the PCC received £750.00
I am grateful to the Church warden and others who have made sure that our funds are utilised sensibly and prudently.
I especially wish to thank Fiona Parkin, Paul Beasley and Ed Dixon for managing & banking the weekly collections and providing me with detailed documentation.
Finally, on behalf of the PCC, thank you to Julian Parkin our Independent Examiner who has kindly spent a considerable amount of his own time examining the PCC’s accounts.
