Our Year 8 historians have shown some fantastic creativity and knowledge in designing their own British Empire board games! Here are just a few of the fab examples we saw in lessons!

This week we are asking @HSHistoryDept students to complete some VE Day themed activities. I set my family the task of making the VE bunting this morning and even the cat has been getting involved! We will try Carrot Scones tomorrow 🥕 #historyteacher #VEDay

Mrs Stedmon and Year 12 have been re-enacting the events of 1646-49 today! Here they are bringing to life the Windsor prayer meeting! A classic SHP example of the power of scripted drama - they’ll be applying this to their 30 mark essays on Monday! #historyteacher #pedagoofriday

Year 11 had to present on reasons for change in the 1960s yesterday. Their presentations were thoughtful and there was some top level analysis from many groups. Some budding A level historians in here! #history #historyteacher #smashingtheAOs

The first set of Year 7 shields are in! Some students have gone way above the expected standard! These are all full of information on Anglo Saxon and Norman tactics. #history #homework #excellentwork

[Highcliffe History @HSHistoryDept]

Some brilliant knowledge in the first set of essays from Year 12, they’ve spent today’s lesson working really hard to improve their analysis and line of reasoning @OCR_History #history #alevel #breakthroughinlearning #examtechnique

Year 8 Historians are getting inspired by the @HamiltonMusical soundtrack and years of #HorribleHistories and starting to write their own songs to summarise the 1500-1900 years of revolution!

[Highcliffe History @HSHistoryDept]

Our @HighcliffeSixth Historians are well into their research now. James is very lucky that Dr Rob Joy specialises in his coursework topic!

[Hannah Stedmon @HLHistory]

Our @HighcliffeSixth Historians have arrived at @unisouthampton for a day working with @HistoryAtSoton to do some high quality research for their @OCR_History coursework.

@abi_eagles @AnnaBrideox @CWGC @HighcliffeSixth We would love it if you would be willing to come in and share your experiences and knowledge when your internship is over and you’re back in the UK before you go to University. The group that we had loved speaking with you and I’m sure the rest of the year group would too!!

[Highcliffe History @HSHistoryDept]

Our students at Thiepval before our wreath laying ceremony, the wreath at the stone of remembrance and our informative tour with our @CWGC interns. Any @HighcliffeSixth students looking for a gap year experience they offer what sounds like an amazing internship! I
