Geography Trip to Bristol

The Year 10 Geography students had an exciting day exploring Bristol Harbourside investigating whether the redevelopment has been a success. Students visited several sites carrying out footfall surveys and environmental quality surveys. Some found the surveys challenging as they had to guess which age group people belonged to. Finally, they all headed to Cabot Circus to buy some lunch and experience a case study from their GCSE course. 

Visit to Burnham on Sea

Year 7 Geography students had fun investigating the structure of sand dunes on Brean Beach and the number of tourists visiting Burnham-on-Sea. Students were also given a lesson on the role of Sea Walls as a coastal defence. Many students ended the day with a well-earned ice cream.
