  • Year 7's visit The Eden Project

    Published 03/02/23

    Year 7 had the amazing opportunity to experience the climate of the rainforest for themselves at The Eden Project, Cornwall. Pupils explored the rainforest biome and discovered food, shelter and water. They were each awarded a certificate to say that they had played a vital role in being rainforest ranger researchers!  It was a fantastic opportunity for the children to put their learning into context and to experience what a rainforest is like. Our tour guide helped reinforce to the children why rainforests are so important. Our favourite part of the trip was walking the cloud bridge. It was a memorable day for all involved.
