Session 9 of Black Country Roots and Realities challenged us to think differently about what it means to become real social historians.
Through interactive activities, we explored communication and connection across cultures, before delving deeper into the life of local community champion David Bennett. Working together, we researched his story and created timelines highlighting the moments that shaped his life and the impact he has had on our community.
A day of discovery, teamwork, creativity and learning, bringing local history to life through the eyes of our Young Historians.
Genesis Sun are proud to be delivering this project in partnership with , supported by and The Hibbert Trust.
