Geological Skills in Co-Curricular

A small group of 2nd Year pupils have been busy this lunchtime taking bearings and modelling the geological features of the school site.

This group of 2nd Year pupils get together one lunchtime a week, as part of the co-curricular syllabus, to learn the practical techniques of geology and will be competing for the first time in the Cornwall Mining Games next Thursday.

Led by Head of Geology Miss Hope and Mr Blackie, they said: “ Our pupils are excited to be taking part in their first event, and it is great they are enjoying learning these practical field techniques which are so useful for future studies in geography, geology and engineering.”

Good luck, team! We look forward to hearing how they get on.
