What you will be doing when you join us
Join us in September to enter Victorian London, during your English lessons, as we uncover Charles Dickens’ novel ‘A Christmas Carol’.
Along with studying the novella, we will be constructing our own descriptions of a winter scene and building upon your creative writing skills.
In order to prepare for this, you can read the novella at home*, research life in Victorian London and find out about Charles Dicken’s life too.
