Fascinating deep dive, from Sarah Longair's keynote, into the material culture of the Seychelles including the coco-de-mer tree and the beautiful hand crafted objects that were produced by indigenous artisans #SHPDTC26

Sarah now showcasing how primary students can use material culture in their classroom using the example that she developed with @mr-s-tiffany.bsky.social on Joseph Banks

@msquinnhistory.bsky.social arguing that primary students can engage really effectively with contested artefacts, and showcasing the work that she does on the Benin Bronzes #SHPDTC26 @profdanhicks.bsky.social, who will be giving our keynote at the 2026 SHP summer conference will be very interested!

Our final primary workshop from @msquinnhistory.bsky.social about using historical artefacts in the primary classroom - and straight off the bat she mentions how powerful they are as a tool for decolonising the curriculum #SHPDTC26

Amazing that so many teachers have booked to attend today! Brilliant work by @1972shp.bsky.social, @danlyndon.bsky.social and co and can't wait to see some of the sessions from amazing speakers too!

I'll be dipping my toe into the secondary sessions to think are the building blocks in place?
