This term Y7 are looking at Migration in Britain from 790- present day to see how the British identity came to be. Today 7O have been looking at King John to question how his reign influenced the development of British identity through French-English tension @TheOngarAcademy

World Book Day is Thursday 4th March🥳

I remember reading The Great Gatsby as a Y12 English Literature student and it opened so many doors of interest to me. Little did I know that one book would catalyse my future studies into both American and modern social History.

Today I received a piece of extra independent work by SS in Y9 who has written an essay on the Historical accuracy of the Disney film Anastasia and its portrayal of the Russian Revolution/Romanovs. Amazing to see such passion for History🤩 @TheOngarAcademy
