A fairly short #geogglebox this week but still covering rivers, coasts, lochs, mountains, mines, icebergs, the Mediterranean, islands and Dartmoor. JC

1.6 completed their research on hot desert survival and animal adaptations. They were delighted to be able to display their hard work!

Higher Geography pupils had a trip through Glasgow's land use zones to view urban change. We even had a chance to see a training session in The Sir Chris Hoy velodrome!

A week of investigating igneous rocks 🪨 for S1 with our Ebay Rocks matching game. Obviously you need to dress the part too! #geography #geographyteacher

Another view of the twin waterspouts in the Strait of Messina, southern Italy this morning....🌪️

#geogglebox for the week ahead, including Ice Age: Apocalypse! JC

Today, Mount Etna Erupts! A new fissure has opened at the base of the Bocca Nuova crater, spewing lava and steam into the air. Location: Mount Etna, Sicily, Italy 🇮🇹

S2 thoroughly enjoyed their visit to Dynamic Earth today. We could have happily spent an extra couple of hours there! #geography #geographyteacher #geographytrip

A few scenes (with unusually clear sound due to absence of wind) of the Strombolian activity at #Etna's Southeast Crater during the night of 2-3 April 2025. Note the cute little secondary vent in the latter part of the video.

S1 ended the term @mdthemepark Amazonia exploring animal adaptations, being very brave & making some new friends!

This time 15 years ago Eyjafjallajökull in Iceland was erupting (just look at the lava bombs!). The eruption grounded over 100,000 flights and at its peak, over 20 European countries had closed their airspace.

Good luck to all of our N5 and Higher pupils sitting their Geography exam today

Our new N5 pupils loved their day of river techniques and fieldwork on the River Gryffe. Well done to everyone for braving the midges and wellie-topping river levels!
