Year 11 Geography trip

Over the weekend of 13th - 15th January the Year 11 Geographers took part in some amazing fieldwork.

We were excited to be able to give students some real fieldwork experience this year after two years off and give them a chance to really live their Geography in some of the most beautiful parts of UAE.

The three-day trip gave students the opportunity to develop hypotheses, conduct fieldwork, collect data, present and analyse data and draw conclusions from their study of the natural environment. Students visited Wadi Showka & Al Hamra Beach in Ras Al Khaimah and Al Hamariyah Beach in Sharjah to consider river and coastal habitats. The final day was spent conducting a comparative investigation of Urban Environments in Al Fahidi historical district and the Emirates Tower area of Dubai.

We were spoiled with brilliant weather and the chance to make some great memories celebrating birthdays around the campfire and working together exploring the geography of our region.
