Read the Headteacher's Blog Update "Thinking of Others"

Following the theme of my most recent Headteacher’s Blog “Thinking of Others”, I would like to congratulate 2 Y9 students, Noah Greenhalgh and Jason Buckley who came to show me the fantastic pieces work that they had created on the theme of the Holocaust memorial.

Their class teacher, Mr Linton had given the class a task to design and make a Holocaust memorial, and then present it to the rest of the class to explain the significance of their design.  They needed to outline and how they felt their finished project represented the 'hidden meanings' of their memorial and tie it to specific things they have learned about the Holocaust.   It was very clear from the examples created by Noah and Jason that a lot of thought, care, time, and effort had gone into making them.

I would like to say how proud I am of Noah and Jason’s understanding of what is a very emotive topic and the care and sensitivity that they have shown when designing a memorial for the victims of the Holocaust.  Well done boys and please keep up this level of commitment to History.
