We are homeward bound after 3 wonderful days in Snowdonia with the lower Sixth geographers. A big thank you to Mrs Yates and Dr Dimberline for supporting me on this fieldwork. @TYGeog@BGSBristol#geographyrules#proudtobeBGS
Some excellent geography from lower sixth today investigating perception of place in Llanberis. Now for an evening of glaciation theory ahead of a day in the mountains tomorrow. @BGSBristol
Over 100 Year 9 pupils were busy collecting data at the coast today. 🌊They say it’s not geography fieldwork without a bit of rain and wind! 💨🌦Great effort from all 😊👏🏼 @BGSBristol#proudtobeBGS
Year 10 had a fantastic time at @FSCNettlecombe on geography fieldwork 🌍 Outstanding pupils, awesome staff, and lots of great geography 👌🏼 #proudtobeBGS@BGSBristol

Table Team Teaching - pupils loved writing on the tables to explain effects of #climatechange (they double checked they were allowed to😆!) No more than 10 words. Explained them back to the roaming interviewers from other groups. #simpleideas#geographyteacher#makeachangeday

Olly shared his experience filming in the oceans and the vital role oceans play in the fight against climate change. Then it was off to Geography and Biology. In Geography groups looked at 3 different topics – flooding, the loss of polar ice and the destruction of coral reefs
Lower Sixth geographers have enjoyed learning about the factors influencing patterns of human rights issues in their lesson this morning. Some exceptional examples of teamwork, communication and leadership on display 👌🏼🌍#proudtobeBGS@BGSBristol
