Haslemere Preparatory School – Acclaimed Historian inspires enquiring minds

16 Oct 2014

Haslemere Preparatory School kicked off the academic year with a visit on Tuesday 7th October from the first of their programme of inspirational speakers to the school, acclaimed historian, writer and journalist Christopher Lloyd.
During the day, he inspired the boys with workshops on history, science and engineering, inviting them to use his learning strategies through the use of memory. This motivated them to dig deeper and ask even more questions than ever before to broaden their minds with regard to the meaning of the world around us.

Christopher then delivered another evening lecture to parents, boys and guests on the ‘History of the World’, which energetically covered major events from the Bing Bang to the present day in just under an hour. Signed copies of Christopher’s publications and brightly illustrated ‘wallbooks’ are an inspiring source of visual learning and proved to be very popular with pupils and parents.
