Great to meet this year’s Adamsdown Investigators today. We were really impressed with the questions that had been prepared for us about census records. I’m looking forward to the results of your follow-up investigations into the past pupil we talked about!

We learnt so much from our friends at @RoathHistory today! We have some follow up investigating to do to help us learn more about a very interesting past pupil! Diolch yn fawr! #aimhigh #bekind #showrespect 🌍

A busy session of investigating past pupils🔍 We’ve 1 original photo from our archives but with no dates! We used names written on the back of the photo along with admission records to trace Mary Williams, front row, second from left! We estimate this photo was taken in 1914!

Our 2023 investigators are particularly interested in researching past pupils! We are trying find a date for this photograph - can anyone help us? All guesses welcome! #aimhigh #bekind #showrespect 🌍🔍

@HistoryA_down Well done on finding the house - and the green door! Great to see you putting your investigation skills into action.

Following in the footsteps of past pupils, we think this may even be the same tree 🌳 🔍🌍

We found the location of the old school building and discussed why the school was moved? Lots of questions and research to be done from our walk today 🔍🌍

Today we used maps to navigate our way to Adamsdown Square 🔍 @GlamArchives we found the house we researched during our visit with you and there is still a green door! 🌍🔍

We are using our new knowledge and research skills to investigate our school log books from 1875 through into the 1900’s 📖 We linked our findings to photographs on the school history timeline 🔍 #history #authenticlearning #aimhigh 🌍🔍

We are enjoying the start of our learning journey as history investigators! Already we are learning new skills, meeting new people and discovering a new love of history! 🔍🌍

An inspiring day for the investigators - take over day @GlamArchives 🔍 We searched the archives, cleaned documents from the 1600’s and digitised photos of our school being built! Diolch to Rhian and all at the archives! #history 🌍🔍
