Year 7 Geography students have been developing their fieldwork skills. They were challenged to find microclimates on the school site. They drew field sketches and used anemometers to measure differences in wind speed and temperature.

Our annual field trip brought the full range of British weather, but Year 10 showed real resilience! Students collected urban and coastal data in Norwich and Cromer, and even got a taste of university life with a campus tour of @uniofeastanglia.

At the end of #NationalFestivalOfFieldwork month and took all of year 8 to the local town to investigate what makes it appealing to visit. Of course, have to make use of GIS to show the data 😊
