Year 8 Favelas
Year 8 Geographers had 4 weeks to research, construct and write a report on a Favela, a Brazilian Shanty town, to mirror the topic of study this half term Brazil.
As well as model they had to present their report on life in a shanty as well as how they managed to construct their models.
The models were simply incredible, unique, with hours of design and construction and sometimes edible! I was quite simply amazed at the level of effort put in by students (with parents and grandparents assistance).

Year 7 Weather Instruments
As part of their half termly project Year 7 Geographers were encouraged to make and use their own weather instruments keeping their information logged in a weather diary.
Some of the weather instruments were so large that Parents had to drop them into reception as they wouldn’t fit on the bus and other had to simply send photographs in because they would not fit in the car!
Although we decided to do it on a day when we didn’t need rain gauges, the students got to go outside and explain to their class how they created their instrument and how it worked.
