On Friday 27th September, 27 students from Key Stage 3 and Key Stage 4 visited the Houses of Parliament. The rainy weather did not prevent the students enjoying the sights of London before heading into Parliament, where they completed a workshop on the ‘Story of Parliament.’ Students enhanced their learning of Citizenship and History, by learning about key events such as the creation of the Magna Carta and Women’s suffrage. Once the workshop was complete, students had the opportunity to experience a guided tour of the House of Commons, the House of Lords and Westminster Hall. Students were allowed to experience the route King Charles III takes when he visits Parliament and also learnt about the role of a Lord or Baroness. Students were able to see where the Prime Minister and the Government take their seats in Parliament to govern the country. All students had a fantastic time, while learning about UK politics.

Well done to all who took part and we look forward to winning more events in future. And, most importantly, having a great time.

We have a few remaining places for September. Please contact Hewenscollege@trhat.org for more information.
On Tuesday 2nd July we welcomed Year 6 students who will join Hewens College in Year 7 in September. The day started with an assembly where Mrs Littlefair shared the ethos of Hewens College with the students. After the assembly they went on the tour of the College with our Student Ambassadors. Year 6 took part in various activities throughout the day. We got very positive feedback as they thoroughly enjoyed the day and are looking forward to starting their journey at Hewens College in September.
On Thursday 20th June, forty-nine Year 8 students went to the Big Bang UK Young Scientists and Engineers Fair at the National Exhibition Centre (NEC) in Birmingham. It was a fantastic STEM event where thousands of young people across the UK got to discover exciting hands-on STEM activities, careers panels and workshops. Students were given the opportunity to discover exciting possibilities and connect with inspiring role models in STEM.
We have just completed our annual Compass Workshops at the three primary schools within the Trust. The selected participants were given booklets to work through during the sessions. The students were overall actively engaged and very cooperative to work with. The Year 8 students from Hewens College went as Mathematics coaches to assist the KS2 students with using the compasses, while developing their own communication, leadership, problem solving and social skills. These students did really well as they got the chance to meet, help and teach the younger children. The workshop was designed to:
1. Build confidence in using the compass;
2. Provide an introductory Mathematics GCSE lesson before starting KS3;
3. Promote active learning through direct interaction between KS3 and KS2 students;
4. Reinforce the learning and skills of the student coaches;
5. Cater for all different ability groups for greater understanding;
6. Enhance interest in Mathematics through real life links.
Our Year 8 girls had a unique opportunity to participate in the BBC Academy’s STEM, English and Media project. By visiting Portland place, our superb students were able to discover how the BBC uses Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics in everyday programming. They returned home enthused with thoughts of considering a career in STEM because it is a field underrepresented by women.
On Saturday 20th April, our 14 French students ventured to Boulogne to experience France in all its glory. Students experienced authentic French food, watched a fashion show, enjoyed the beach and even caught a glimpse of a French wedding! They had the great experience of going in the Eurotunnel, which was very fascinating for them. We hope to plan many more trips like this in future so the students can learn something whilst enjoying themselves.
