Letter from the General Secretary
Dear Supporters of the St Austell Festival,
I have pleasure in sending you the syllabus for our 2019 festival. This year we
are delighted to welcome Jenny Thornton as our adjudicator for the Spoken
Word. Jenny is an old friend of the festival and she was last with us in 2014.
We shall also be delighted to welcome Marilynne Davies to adjudicate
Music; she is another old friend who was last here in 2013.
In the Spoken Word, primary school age classes have continued to be very
well supported. There are two changes this year. We have introduced a Year 2
Duologue (Class 12) for the first time. We hope it will encourage those who
may like to begin taking part in the festival with a friend beside them! The
other new class is very special. Marjie Fenston James has been associated
with encouraging young people in the Spoken Word locally for many years,
especially at Tywardreath. She has adjudicated the Spoken Word for us in the
past. Marjie has been writing lots of lovely poems, including many related to
Cornwall. Class 8 this year will be the Marjie Fenston James Class. It sets a
choice of two of her poems for Years 3 and 4 and two poems for Years 5 and
6. (We’ll award a trophy for each age group in that class.) The class will
replace in 2019 the class for a poem by a Cornish poet or about Cornwall. As
I said last year, it would be good to have some more primary school drama
entries. Schools can choose one of the scripts set or the drama group can
create their own script based on a given theme. Being involved in drama is so
rewarding and such fun – do come and share your drama with us!
Secondary drama classes have always been non-competitive and since 2013;
instead of setting specific classes, we have invited drama teachers to bring
students to present their work to be professionally assessed by our adjudicator
according to their own criteria and requirements. We want to encourage more
drama from secondary school individuals and groups - please make the most
of this excellent opportunity to have your work performed in public and be
assessed by a professional adjudicator! Secondary poetry classes will be as
in 2018.
In Music there are no changes in 2019.
2
Adult Participation
Adult entries in recent years have been disappointing, but I do so want to
encourage adult soloists, groups and choirs to enter so that we can put
together a full and enjoyable Friday evening programme of adult music. This
year again we are just including one non-competitive class for adult solo
singers, Class 39, which asks those who enter to sing two contrasting songs
for a maximum of eight minutes. We hope that the opportunity to perform in
public and benefit from the adjudicator’s advice without the element of
competition may be attractive! There is also an open non-competitive
instrumental class on a similar basis, Class148.
Composition classes
Once again, I should also like to draw your attention to two composition
classes; one is for a song sung by the composer (Class 36) and the other is for
a composition by a young composer (Class 147). Composition is now an
important part of both GCSE and A Level Music, so this is an excellent
opportunity for students to perform publicly, benefit from the advice of a
professional adjudicator and so enhance their examination performance.
Accompanists
We welcome our official accompanists once again this year. They are
Suzanne Brodie, Hannah Hawken and Stephen Watts. Please be sure to get
in touch with them at least three weeks before the festival if you wish to use
them. They will be happy to arrange a rehearsal. The syllabus indicates which
classes they will be able to accompany and how they can be contacted.
If there is a music class you wish to enter which does not appear in our
syllabus, do get in touch with me, because I’ll always be happy to consider
including it!
Entry fees remain the same as last year and are among the very lowest
charged in the country by festivals affiliated to the British and International
Federation of Festivals. Please consider becoming a Friend of the Festival,
especially if you have children who will be taking part several times. £10 for a
single person or £15 for a couple give you access to all festival sessions,
including the concert. More details are included in the syllabus.
Gala Concert
We decided in 2018 to have our gala concert in February 2019, rather than on
the last evening of the festival, but, of course, it had to be cancelled because
of snow! This has made us realise that bad weather is always a bigger risk in
January and February, so we have decided to return to our former practice of
holding a concert on the final evening of the festival. We may begin the
concert a little earlier to enable families to enjoy other commitments that they
3
might have later in the evening! (There is, of course, so much going on in
December!)
Data protection
We have done our best to take account of the data protection regulations. Our
syllabus incudes our Privacy Notice and the more detailed Privacy Policy can
be found on the Festival website or obtained from the secretary. Our entry
forms require you to sign to say that you are willing to give the necessary
consents for this and our safeguarding policy. Parents or guardians need to
sign for young people 16 or under. Alternately, teachers can sign to indicate
that they have received the necessary consents for individual entries. We are
very grateful for your co-operation. Please note that if you so not wish the
name of a performer to appear in our programmes or the name of a winner to
appear on our website or in the local press, you need to let us know at the time
of entry.
The deadline for entries is Friday 4th October. Please do your best to get
entries to us on time. It is a complex task to prepare the programmes and this
can only be done when we know the nature and number of entries.
I want to end with a very important plea for more committee members.
Our present committee is wholeheartedly committed to providing the
opportunity for people, and especially young people, in the St Austell
area to perform in public. This opportunity enables those who take part
to gain in self-confidence and acquire skills that are invaluable. However,
most of our committee members have been sustaining our festival for
many years and are reaching the point when they need to retire. We are
also conscious that the Festival needs to keep up with many other
festivals by introducing on line entry and payment facilities. We urgently
need some new younger committee members with good computer skills to
join us and take on some of the necessary responsibilities in running the
Festival. Please consider whether you might be able to help. If we cannot
find the help we need, we shall reluctantly have to make the sad decision
that the 2020 Festival will be our last.
I very much look forward to welcoming you to the St Austell Festival in
November and December.
Your sincerely, Anne Keast (General Secretary)

FESTIVAL CONCERT
It has been very difficult to arrange our gala concert on the Saturday evening at the
end of the festival in recent years because of so many other events in early December.
Our concert last year was arranged for Friday 1st February 2019, but had to be cancelled
because of snow! This year we will return to our practice of holding the concert on
the final evening of the festival.
The number of entries may necessitate alteration to this timetable, but we try to arrange
the programme for the convenience of our competitors.
THE SPOKEN WORD
The Jean Sales Cup will be awarded to the Key Stage 2 girl & boy (Years 3-6)
obtaining the highest marks in the set poem classes.
The St Austell Festival is pleased to announce that it has entered into an agreement
with the Authors’ Licensing and Collecting Society. This means that entrants do not
have to seek copyright permission for any poetry, prose or solo dramatic items
performed, to a time limit of 10 minutes. Performers and teachers will be delighted to know that their participation in this
festival means that authors will be directly reimbursed as a consequence of their works
being performed at this festival.
MUSIC
A participation certificate will be awarded to individuals and groups taking part in
non-competitive classes.
The numerous special awards for music classes will be listed later in the music
programme.

St Austell Festival of Music and Speech - Child Protection Policy
The British and International Federation of Festivals for Music, Dance and Speech work
for amateur festivals everywhere to help create thousands of educational performance
opportunities for children and young people each year. The Federation, and our member Festivals, are committed to ensuring safe environments for
children and young people and believe that it is always unacceptable for a child or young person
to experience abuse of any kind. We recognise our responsibility to safeguard the welfare of
all children and young people, by a commitment to recommend best practice which protects
them.
This policy applies to our Board of Trustees, paid staff, Adjudicator members, volunteers,
students or anyone working on behalf of the Federation and our member Festivals.
We recognise that:
• the welfare of the child/young person is paramount
• all children, regardless of age, disability, gender, racial heritage, religious belief, sexual
orientation or identity, have the right to equal protection from all types of harm or abuse • working in partnership with children, young people, their parents, carers and other agencies
is essential in promoting young people’s welfare The purpose of the policy:
• to provide protection for the children and young people who participate in our festivals,
including the children of festival members • to provide staff and volunteers with guidance on procedures they should adopt in the event
that they suspect a child or young person may be experiencing, or be at risk of, harm We will seek to safeguard children and young people by:
• valuing them, listening to and respecting them
• adopting child protection guidelines through procedures and safe working practice for staff
and volunteers • recruiting staff and volunteers safely, ensuring all necessary checks are made
• sharing information about child protection and safe working practice with children, parents,
staff and volunteers • sharing information about concerns with agencies who need to know, and involving parents
and children appropriately • providing effective management for staff and volunteers through supervision, support and
training. The Federation will review this policy each year in November in line with Safe Network
guidance or sooner in light of any changes in legislation or guidance. All changes will be
communicated to our member Festivals in time for the start of the new Festival year.
16
Creating Safer Festivals for Everyone
The Federation and its member Festivals use the following policies and procedures to create
Safer Festivals for everyone:
1. A single, definitive Child Protection Policy adopted by all Federation Festivals.
2. One or more designated Festival Safeguarding Officers (FSO) appointed for each
Federation Festival: Mrs Anne Keast Phone: 01726 61444
3. Best practice advice in the form of Safe Working Practice and Festival Child Protection
leaflets, with support and training for all Festival staff and volunteers. Including clear
reporting procedures for anyone with a concern about a child.
4. Appropriate recruitment and induction procedures for all new Festival staff and volunteers
responsible for providing safe environments for everyone attending / performing at a
Federation Festival.
5. All Festival personnel wear an official Festival badge. All
teachers/parents/guardians/carers are asked to report all incidents of any nature to anyone
wearing a badge. All reported incidents will be handled in accordance with the Safe
Working Practice and Festival Child Protection best practice advice. In addition we
will ensure the availability of a quiet area / room where concerns can be expressed in
private.
6. For the duration of a Festival all teachers/parents/guardians/carers are responsible for the
continuous care and supervision of their own children/pupils. If they are unable to attend
personally, they must delegate their responsibilities to an identified adult and ensure that
their children/pupils are aware of the identity and name of the person responsible for
their care. This includes supervision throughout all Festival venues, practice and
changing areas that may be provided. The Festival cannot take responsibility for any
property left unattended.
7. No unauthorised photography, audio or video recording of children and young people is
allowed in the performance areas at our Festivals. Where parents/guardians/carers do not
wish photos to be taken at all, then the responsible adult attending should ensure that
their child is not included in official photos.
8. Some children and vulnerable adults may have specific needs in order to take part. If this
is the case we ask the responsible teachers/parents/guardians/carers to contact the
Festival Secretary prior to arrival. The Festival actively seeks wherever possible to meet
these needs, but must know beforehand in order to prepare support – or to advise that
help cannot be provided on this occasion.
9. The Festival’s Child Protection Policy and approach to Creating Safer Festivals for
Everyone is published explicitly in our Syllabus, Programme and Website. By
completing and signing the entry form all parents / guardians / carers and teachers of
competitors under 18 (or vulnerable adults of any age) confirm that they give (or have
obtained) the necessary consents for the competitors to take part in the Festival. Without
consent the entry to the Festival cannot be accepted.
