Academic Workshops

Wednesday saw Haileybury International Summer School 2024 venture out for their first academic trips of the course.  

ABH pupils travelled to the stately Knebworth House to learn the skills of gothic writing, or to David Parr House to gain an insight into the celebrated 20th century designer's work and skills at the centre of the Arts and Crafts movement. 

At Whipsnade Zoo an English + group learned about the impact of climate change on wildlife, whilst our other class undertook an urban nature investigation at Tring Natural History Museum. 

The Centre of Computing History in Cambridge was the venue for our STEM pupils to utilise raspberry pi to develop a programme to electronically move a jeep.
