2024: Podcasts on Florence Broadhurst's life and death -

Part 1 &
Part 2
At the beginning of June 2024, we
started putting "Critical Thinking Spots" onto our pages. These are mostly
articles from The Conversation
written by academics who have researched the topic thoroughly.
The Critical Thinking Spots have questions to ponder after reading the article. It is hoped teachers and students, after a few minutes [3 - 5 mins] read, will take advantage of these spots for some deep thinking and maybe discussion. A great way to focus students at the beginning or end of a lesson.
