Our wonderful geographers in Class 2 had a fantastic time with the Encompass Team undertaking a field study looking at rivers. Our intrepid explorers climbed a tor find the source of a tributary. Our geographers compared the upper course' (the source) with the middle course - (where it gains more water ) - noting that the upper course had a steeper gradient compared to the lower course which was considerably flatter. Our geographers made detailed notes of the path it took and how the characteristics changed as it travelled down stream. They finished the day building dans to investigate how the body of water can impact on the local vegetation as it makes its way- overcoming barriers in its path. We are incredibly proud of our ambassadors resolve in the most inhospitable of conditions. They demonstrated our school values in action and made us incredibly proud of them all. Thank you to the Encompass Rangers who facilitated such a wonderful day. #outdoorlearning #dartmoornationalpark #rivers #geographers
