Village of the Year Competition
Hunsdon entered the CPRE / Calor Village of the Year competition again
this year, and was awarded the category prize for 'Communications'.
The judges' commendation said "A good social centre is necessary for good
communications, for example an excellent multi-purpose Village Hall,
friendly pub or welcoming Church. In many cases the School acts as the
centre of the communications web. The winning village demonstrated an
understanding between all the stalwarts who were prepared to give up their
time to explain to us their particular role within the village. The
village publishes a great deal of literature full of information of use to
those living within and without the village bounds. The judges were
impressed by the communication skills of the children who showed them
round the school. The village website is easy to negotiate, up to date and
it tells you all you need to know."

  Congratulations
to Charlie and Shirley Paton on their front garden display in Hollands
Croft. A hidden gem of Hunsdon! Has anyone else spotted the
character taking a craft nap among the colourful blooms (see right)? |

Fete Day The sun shone and the crowds came -
what a great event on 5th June. Thanks to everyone who came, to the
stall-holders and in particular to the VHMC sub-committee who organised
the whole day. Our thanks also to the chaps from Morgan Est who
helped set up and take down. As usual the dog show was a great
success under Tracey Shawe's expert judge's eye. Winners of the
various classes are shown below:
