Our Museum Learning Christmas Carol exhibition is a powerful, immersive display to encourage ambitious writing for our  Yr 10 & 11s.

 Students are exploring:

-  Marley’s chains and the Dantean consequences of greed
-  The Ghost of Christmas Past and the shifting nature of memory
-  How imagination shaped Scrooge’s early life — and his chance for change
-  The Spirit of Christmas Present and Dickens’ call for compassion and social responsibility
-  How A Christmas Carol helped shape the Christmas traditions we know today

A big thank you Jenny, Naomi and the English faculty for this vivid and inspiring way to bring literature to life and helping our students  understand why this story still matters today.
