Part of the Geography A-Level course with our Year 12s, Is to study<br />
coastal formations.<br />
Our Geographers hit the road at 6.30am on 10 th November for our<br />
first location of Chesil Beach in Dorset. We were joined by the Leeson<br />
House Field Studies Centre, who were able to show us the coastal<br />
landforms and processes which are being created along the Jurassic<br />
Coastline. While at Chesil Beach, the students completed beachprofiles<br />
and put their fieldwork skills into action. We even got a<br />
personalised weather forecast from the @MetOffice on Twitter (it<br />
stayed dry)!<br />
We continued further East along the coastline towards Durdle Door<br />
and Lulworth Cove. After watching a stunning sunset across the<br />
coastline, we headed back to School by 8.30pm.<br />
We were invited by Interclimate, an<br />
environmental education charity, to participate<br />
for the fourth year running in their mock United<br />
Nations Convention on Climate Change which<br />
was held in Cheltenham Council Chambers.<br />
Summer Wyatt-Buchan, Ethan Hadad and Fin<br />
McDonald were part of the delegation from<br />
Cuba and Ben and Ralph Sharp<br />
represented Australia. Both teams hotly<br />
debated the contentious targets that were<br />
being discussed and eloquently presented the<br />
views and challenges experienced by their<br />
respective countries with regard to Climate<br />
Change. Mrs Johnstone was very impressed<br />
with the standard of debate and the research<br />
that had been carried out by all involved!
