Geography

Take a look at some of the exciting Geography enrichment activities we have been taking part in this year so far.

In EYFS, the children went on an exciting trip to Yorkshire Wildlife Park. While they were there they had the opportunity to explore the grounds and use maps to help them find different areas of the adventure park.

As part of KS1’s local geography study, the children kicked off their topic by visiting the four countries of the United Kingdom. They took part in the Highland games in Scotland, completed a quiz in Wales, used atlases to explore England and learnt some Irish dancing in Northern Ireland.

In UKS2, the children visited Jorvik to discover the sights, sounds and smells of the Viking Age.

They also visited The DIG which gave the children a hands-on experience of being an archaeologist by digging for evidence in the digging pits and putting their enquiry skills to the test.
