In Year 6's PSHE session today, we were learning about what is 'normal' - and realised that it was all based on our previous experiences! We discussed how to be aware of different abilities and disabilities, and noted how bias played into how we may view different groups. pic.twitter.com/VldOC6Zuyw— Benedict Academy (@BenedictAcad) December 1, 2023

Year 6 thoroughly enjoyed their time at the @I_W_M, to see the Second World War and Holocaust galleries. This complimented their History unit, and their class text 'Goodnight Mr Tom'. pic.twitter.com/lLvmqVRGmt— Benedict Academy (@BenedictAcad) November 23, 2023

To tell you the truth, it was a bit of a gruesome affair at the @sciencemuseum with Year 4 Yew class today, to see the 'It takes Guts' workshop. It was lovely spotting @WestbridgeAcad there too! pic.twitter.com/BGWvNvQgz0— Benedict Academy (@BenedictAcad) November 22, 2023

This week, year 1 Cherry Class have been inspired by Andy Goldsworthy to use their ‘artist’s eyes’ to observe leaves, looking closely at the lines, shapes and colours, then recreating them in their own work. 🍁🍂🌿 pic.twitter.com/u6wHMbn7xI— Benedict Academy (@BenedictAcad) November 18, 2023
