Today was one of those days as a teacher/sports coach that just makes you smile. A Year 13 lad who has given much of his time to help coach hockey to the younger ones, normally plays defence had a dream ending to his school hockey
Due to the rainfall a slight change to program @BSPatterdale for Yr7. No gorge walk or climbing, instead team games and canoeing. Mr Foy and Miss Berry getting stuck in on the lake. Boys showing superb resilience and determination to develop their skills in very wet conditions.
Boys doing their best Spiderman impressions and learning a lot about just how collaborative climbing is @BSPatterdale
Up at @BSPatterdale and went to see 7B, group 3 on the Gorge Walk. All having great fun and showing persistence and encouraging each other to jump.
And this one is particularly useful for the NEA

Accounts of the Crusades were usually commissioned by wealthy and influential people about themselves. But what was life like for the ordinary people who went on crusade? Today Dr. Eleanor Janega finds out from Dr.@_simonparsons: eu1.hubs.ly/H08hFbx0 @GoingMedieval

Well done to William Malley for an excellent and personal speech in tonight’s heat of the Great Debate, representing the Boys’ Division. This was the strongest field of speakers that the judges have seen.

A fabulous museum, the opportunity to look at amazing artefacts and a military drill that Year 9 won’t forget. @BSBDHistoryDept will be back!

Thank you to @Royal_Armouries at Leeds for the warm welcome and wonderful First World War workshops enjoyed by our Year 9 boys over the last two days!
Year 8 have looked at what could have happened to the Princes in the Tower so I suggest they watch this. It has the potential to be fascinating. (Yes 8E this is your History teacher telling you to watch TV!)
What happened to the Princes in the Tower? This new documentary opens up one of English history’s greatest mysteries in a continent-crossing journey with Philippa Langley and @RobbieRinder.
Stream or watch The Princes in the Tower: The New Evidence live from Saturday 8pm.
One for all investigatory historians to listen to. Particularly Year 8 who have reached their own conclusions on this earlier in the year
