Armed with Clip Boards & Wellies




Great news from our Bright World partners at Stover School, At the start of this Half Term, the Year 7 pupils from Stover Senior School embarked on their first Geography field trip of the year. Armed with clip boards and wellies they set off to firstly, find out a little about the history of Stover Country Park; secondly, to study the broad leaved, coniferous and heath land ecosystems and lastly, to see what management techniques were being used to control the rhododendron problem!! Lots of vigorous note- taking and field-sketches were produced in order for informative write-ups to begin back in the classroom.

Miss Evans, who accompanied us on the trip, commented on what a pleasure it had been to be in the company of such interested, well-behaved children.
