☀️ Just a sunny Sunday in Dorset for Year 9! ☀️
Our students have enjoyed a day packed with fun and adventure. This morning, they headed out into the sunshine for a river study, measuring river width, depth, flow rate, and bed load size and shape as part of their investigation into how rivers change downstream.
The excitement continued this afternoon with plenty of thrills on the giant swing, before everyone danced the evening away at an energetic silent disco! 🎧💃🕺
A fantastic day of learning, teamwork and unforgettable memories in the Dorset sunshine. 🌞🌿🌊
