Final evening

The final evening for the Yr12s is almost over (or so Dr Hitch and Miss Fryer hope!) - it has ended with an enjoyable quiz which ended in some close results.

The evening work involved playing with GIS computer programs on the laptops creating maps to overlay onto Google Earth - these being very successful.

Then for the quiz! It involved rounds such as "Sporting Change", "Flagging Yet?" and "Spotters guide to this week" - all with a geographical theme! The number of cereals became debatable as to whether Weetabix had been included in the original calculations! In the end Max, Libby, Annie and David were narrowly beaten by Michael, Adam, Ben and Joe!

One of the questions - which animal is there a statue of outside the Birmingham shopping centre we studied on Tuesday? Well they had a photo of them pointing at it!



Some final work looking at rural settlements tomorrow before heading back to KEGS.  In the meantime, dates for next year's Yr12 trip are being considered!!
