Over the summer, we received the news that Issue 9 of the SGS Historian magazine was chosen as runner up in Young Historian Awards Best School History Magazine competition (sponsored by the Mid-Trent and Mercia Branch).
The theme for this year’s publication was ‘Forgotten History’ and was written by six SGS current pupils. Head of Sixth Form Mr David Stone and Classics Teacher Mr Alistair Thorley also penned contributions.
The judging panel specifically mentioned how much they “really enjoyed [SGS Historian] and the way the students wrote”. The judges were “very impressed by the range and depths of the articles included and particularly the discursive and analytical nature of the various items”.
The team behind the award-winning publication have also recorded some of their pieces for the SGS History podcast. The first episode is available now, where Sixth Former, Kiera explores the history of communist Cambodia under the regime of Pol Pot.
Well done to Team SGS History!
