Day 3 of our yr10 fieldwork today - rather hot at the River Lea in Wheathampstead but fantastic effort and attitude from all pupils!

That's day 3 done at @FSCBlencathra. Today we had an hour in the classroom discussing what makes a good enquiry question, before a short walk. The students were then taken down to Keswick, where they were treated to proper northern fish and chips! What a few days we've had!

Day 3: Today's the day we depart, but whilst the students were still in bed, Mr Fraser was bagging a few summits. Back in time for breakfast too!

Today I took our year 13s down to London to look at Regeneration in Kings Cross as part of their near place changing places case study. It has been a really informative trip and has really helped them understand the big ideas in the module. Great work all!
