# Geography Club in the Spring

Geography Club went outdoors to study the woodland in the spring.

The group, led by Humanities teacher Mrs Kursitis, has been looking at how species adapt, specifically bluebells, on the woodland floor. They also identified which types of trees were present, collected leaves, and completed a survey back at school to identify any invasive species.

Mrs Kursitis said, "We study forests in Year 9 and also at GCSE. Pupils learn about eco-systems and deciduous woodlands so this was a great opportunity to experience what we teach first hand."

Geography Club meets every Wednesday lunch in HU5.  Pupils from all year groups are welcome.
