The beautiful voices of Tesserae filled the hall during our April meeting. This quartet consists of two sopranos and two contraltos and includes our treasurer, Clare Robinson-Hughes. They used to sing in an octet called Mosaic, with two tenors and two basses, until Covid hit. When meetings in groups of six or less were permitted, the ladies met up in their gardens and sang together - under a tree if it rained! They named their quartet Tesserae, after the individual tiles which make up a mosaic. (They have been mistakenly introduced as “Tresemme” - the hair product!)

The relaunch of the Kibworth History Society will take place on Wednesday 21 May at 7pm in Kibworth Library. If you are interested in your surroundings and would like to know more please do come along. You will be very welcome.

Following our report on Rotary Young achievers on the front page of last month’s Chronicle, Aggie Wells, runner up in the National Young chef competition (part of the wider Rotary Young Citizen’s awards) came to our Rotary meeting at Kibworth Golf Club on Tuesday 29 April.

Paul Maslowski knew that he had found what he was looking for when, in1996, he saw a Chinese artist demonstrating Chinese painting and Calligraphy at the Leicester Chinese Community Centre. Following this, he began to study Chinese Brush Painting under instruction from the very best of practitioners in Leicester. Paul was enthused further about Chinese poetry and traditional culture. After years of serious study in Taiwan and China, he continues to study Calligraphy and Painting with Taiwanese, Chinese and European artists. His work has won him national and international recognition.

It’s been a busy few weeks for Fleckney & Kibworth Running Club as we enter spring, with a variety of races to report. The Leicestershire Road Running League (LRRL) races are now underway with the 1st Race being our local Kibworth 6. We’ve had several of our runners competing in a whole host of different races already this year, achieving some fantastic results along the way. Well done team F&K, and great motivation for the rest of the year.

To celebrate LMT’s Silver Anniversary, our September production will be a ‘Grand Variety Show’ (working title!). There will be a Pick and Mix of the best bits from the year 2000.
