KS3 science and slavery project
I am working with the Natural History Museum/science learning centre alonside two other writers.The session with Dr Katherine Hann was very good and yet quite emotive. One of the key messages is that in the teaching of the slave trade it needs to be treated as a matter that is not yet closed. On reflection two hundred years ago is not a long time in the history of a family and so fo r some people who are descendants of slaves it is still an open wound.

It’s 14 September, Lloyd! I expect better from you! What do you mean you’re too busy to add to your blog?! I’m feeling lonely on here!!!
Seriously, hope you had a good holiday, and I look forward to hearing how you’re getting on this term – and to see some photos of your garden in this summer weather we’ve had recently!
I’m sure you have been enjoying the Formula 1 championship as much as I have been recently! I wonder if you will include your reaction to the events in China tomorrow morning?!
