Packed house for the History immersion day for our N5-AH pupils today. Wishing the very best of luck to all our candidates sitting exams tomorrow. You got this 💪 ❤️ ✍️

Great night welcoming our future S1 parents and carers to the department. We learned about what it took to make a Greek hero with a little help from Greek Myth Comix

How To Make Your History Teacher Happy: So proud of these Higher History alumni! Off to explore Rome and they remembered to send me a picture. These two will do great things. 💪 ❤️ *photograph posted with permission

What a great impression the ‘new’ 1S3 made on their P7 visit! Totally engaged, collaborated with everyone in their groups, made fantastic contributions to the lesson. One young man even asked a Q that stumped me and now I have to find out the answer and get back to him! 💭 🤔 🙋‍♀️

Great day of learning, networking and discussion. Thanks to Mr.Lee Baker for organising.

Always the best! It’s showtime 🌟

Visited the largest surviving Medusa stone pediment today. Always history, even on your holidays!

Today 79AD Mount Vesuvius begins stirring, on feast day of Vulcan, Roman god of fire (goes on to destroy Pompeii)

Although this is the date given in the letter of Pliny the Younger, Dio Cassius records the eruption happened in the late autumn…

In 1797 Carlo Maria Rosini argued traces of fruits harvested in autumn – pomegranates, chestnuts, dry figs, raisin grapes, pine cones and dates – found at both Herculaneum and Pompeii, meant that the eruption could not have happened in late August.

He also noted heating braziers in the public rooms of some of the houses as evidence of cold weather, he suggested an eruption date in late November
