Geography – Empty Lands – (S2)

As part of their ‘Empty Lands’ unit, S2 were tasked with designing their own animal.  Pupils had to understand how the climate and environment of the tundra, rainforest and desert have led to plants and animals adapting to the area.

Pupils were encouraged to use their imagination when designing the look of the animal – but the adaptations had to suit the climate region they live in.

These are some of the results.

I Can Do Anything

S2 pupils were a credit to the school last week as they took part in our annual ‘I Can Do Anything’ event.  The event helps to raise awareness about a range of careers prior to pupils choosing their subject options.  A special thank you to all the business delegates who gave up their own time to support our event.  Many of the pupils expressed how interesting and useful they found the event.
