Welcome to The Keller Class...

...and our very own web page for family and friends to see what we've been doing in our class.

Welcome to Keller Class - Helen Keller, born on June 27, 1880 in Tuscumbia, Alabama. At 19 months old, Keller contracted an unknown illness which left her both deaf and blind. She lived, as she recalled in her autobiography, "at sea in a dense fog." Despite this she became the first deaf-blind person to earn a Bachelor of Arts degree. She went on to campaign for many causes which she deeply believed in and was a prolific author. Her attitude in overcoming adversity in order to campaign for the rights of others is one that reflects many of the Christian Values that form the frame work and foundation for life at Culworth Academy.

The Keller class this term are travelling deep into the earth's core. We want to find out what causes the earth to tremble and quake. We want to know how a tsunami is formed and what causes a volcano to erupt. What happened to Pompeii when Mount Vesuvius did exactly that? We will hopefully find answers to all these questions in our Geography, History and literacy sessions.
