Women in History<br />
In Year 8 History, we have been looking <strong>at</strong><br />
significant women in history and this has really<br />
helped our students to see just how important<br />
these women were and how they overcame many<br />
challenges to achieve the things they did. We have<br />
been learning about Cleop<strong>at</strong>ra, Joan of Arc,<br />
Elizabeth I, Pocahontas, Mary Seacole and<br />
Margaret Th<strong>at</strong>cher. This has also got students<br />
thinking about other groups of people who may be<br />
missing from history and how there are still many<br />
gender inequalities in the world today.<br />
Acocks Green Lions<br />
We are very gr<strong>at</strong>eful to the Acocks Green Lions for<br />
the support they give our school. They very<br />
generously don<strong>at</strong>ed £250 towards our school food<br />
bank. Some of our students went out to support<br />
them with their Santa Sleigh in the week before<br />
Christmas.<br />
Cleop<strong>at</strong>ra,<br />
c. 69BC to 30BC<br />
Joan of Arc, c. 1412 to 1431
