British Academy Trip
Students from Year 9 and 10 spent Friday 9th June at the British Academy in Westminster attending their annual Summer Showcase. We engaged with a number of guest speakers - learning about career pathways, considering what kind of activist we might want to be, and learning how to pronounce old English!
Attempting to pronounce Beowulf in its original form was difficult even for the English teachers accompanying - but the students impressed University professors with their ability both to point out translation errors and knowing the origins of ‘Chiswick’ (Cheese farm).
