Programme: Environmental Awareness Adventure
Anglesey
A unique combination of adventure activities and environmental investigation that gives students the theory into the environments we live in and how we can contribute to protecting the natural World around us. The course can be tailored to meet the needs of the science and geography Curriculum/Syllabus or can be used to enrich the overall education of pupils.
We use the amazing North Wales natural environment and adventure activities to challenge, motivate and develop pupils’ understanding. We will use an enquiry-based approach to investigate the different environments. Proposing a question; Formulating the hypotheses; Designing the experiment or fieldwork; Making observations; Interpreting the data and Proposing conclusions
Our aim is to bring students together outside of their normal environment and bring them into a new natural world, where they feel comfortable in nature, understand how environments are created and the effect our individual contribution has on the environment around us. .
- Students will gain a deeper awareness and understanding of the environment and actively seek opportunities to reduce the impact that they and others have on it – locally and globally
