CHECK OUT THIS SITE	Welcome to Humanities! The Humanities department covers a range of subjects including: Geography, History, Religious Education, Philosophy and Ethics, Opening Minds and Citizenship. • Humanities gives you the opportunity to explore human culture and its history, from ancient civilisations, to the art, history, literature, music and religions of the twenty-first century. • As you study Humanities you’ll gain an insight into the modern world we live in and how we got to where we are. And you’ll pick up skills in significance, discussion, analysis, communication and presentation, and the valuable ability to think both creatively and critically.	Enjoy the adventure that Humanities brings! Tim Pearson
