A Visit from Sef Townsend!
We were honoured to welcome back Sef Townsend - after almost 10 years! Sef conducted storytelling workshops with our students! Our pupils were enamoured by his stories drawn from his personal experiences.
Sef is a writer and storyteller, acclaimed for his various Arts projects running since 1995 - moreover, Sef Townsend has worked all across the globe, promoting inclusion and diversity through storytelling and interactive programmes. And, to add to his wealth of accolades and achievements, Sef has also devised his own radio shows for BBC Radio 3, and Radio 4!
Overall, the experience was enjoyed by both staff and students alike, bringing together our community through the use of words, language and narrative.
Year 6 - Trip to the Maritime Museum!
The Greenwich Maritime Museum holds over 2.5 million items including astronomical and navigational instruments, ship models, coins and flags! Moreover, it's also home to the world's largest maritime library and archive collection! Our Year 6 students dived into the world of maritime history, investigating a variety of nautical transport, as well as the history of many naval battles! Our students loved this dip into different seafaring experiences!
World Book Day!
Of course, we couldn't celebrate World Book Day without bringing various children's stories to life! Both staff members and students wholeheartedly participated in dressing up as their favourite book character, creating a great environment of solidarity at BHA! From Cruella De Ville and her crazy hair and fur coat, to Harry Potter's iconic robe and glasses, our students thoroughly enjoyed getting creative with their costumes!
World Book Day exists as a celebration for all things literature, and by having a day dedicated to honouring some of our students' favourite fictional heroes, we aim to bring a new layer of enjoyment to reading books! We would also like all parents and carers for their support in helping students come up with their costumes!
Year 1 - Exploring Senses!
As part of their studies, our Year 1 students have been exploring their senses! From smell, to sight, to taste, our Year 1 pupils have thoroughly enjoyed their sensory exploration!
