On Friday we read the opening chapter of ‘To Kill A Mockingbird’ by Harper Lee, as part of our immersion week. This will act as the expedition’s anchor text – something that will underpin our studies throughout. We will study the historical context of the American Depression during the 1930s, and also focus on the novel’s central themes of identity, prejudice, racism, equality, and making stands against what you perceive to be wrong.
Parents and carers can order their own copy here should they wish to explore the text at home with their child for £5.24. Books are provided for students in class.
