Lauderdale’s Young Research & Interpretation Collective (LYRIC) is a new 8 week programme at Lauderdale House that offers local sixth form students (16-17 year olds) the opportunity to learn about research and archive methods under the guidance of educator and researcher, Jonathan Goddard as they explore their own local history topic.
The sessions included talks from guest speakers about their research and processes, as well as a visit to the HLSI archive to understand more about handling primary sources.
LYRIC culminates with an exhibition of the young people's work and a new series of podcasts on their chosen topics.
We are very proud of our first LYRIC cohort and hope you enjoy their refreshing research.
