All our resources can be easily combined with your existing timetable of activities and lessons. For example, our tutor time activities could be used in one tutor time session on HMD itself, or all five across a week. An assembly on HMD could lead to classes reading a life story in their English or History lessons. There are many ways to integrate HMD into the school day. You can read about how schools have marked HMD in previous years here.
