Congratulations to Ella
Ella Popplewell from Twyford is 12 years old and has recently won a Disney tv talent show, My school musical, you can see her winning performance at www.myschoolmusical.co.uk

Here's what she has to say about her experience...
"I spent 3 days in london filming the programs and really enjoyed it. I had professional training, top chorographers and a make over. I have received a certificate for reaching the finals out of over 5000 entries. Then the film crew and the T.V presenter came secretly to suprise me at my house and crowned me the winner having received over 15000 votes for my performance. I was really shocked and they presented me with a trophy. I have also been given High School Musical merchandise and as a special gift from Disney, a circus walking globe, which I used at the Disney studios in filming . Also I have copies of all the T.V shows on Disney channel that I appeared in. It has been a fantastic experience for me!"

Local Development Framework
There has been a great deal of interest in future housing development (and other spatial development) in Adderbury. Many villagers will be aware, but many will not, that the system and procedures for dealing with these has fundamentally changed and the detail is being drawn up now under the banner of the Local Development Framework (LDF).

In order to make a contribution to the debate it is necessary to understand the new system, at least in outline. Those who wish to be active in making effective comment and representation would be well advised to know a lot more. Any updates on the LDF are posted on this site and can be accessed by clicking here.
