Geography
Geography is challenging, motivating, topical and fun. In our diverse society children need, more than ever before, to understand other people and cultures. Our aim is to engage children with their local environment, through field trips and residentials, and extend this to the wider world.
Geography makes a major contribution to children's physical, intellectual, social and emotional development – and at St. Mary Magdalen’s we strive to allow our children to be immersed in, and learn the flowing:
Life skills |
World knowledge |
People and places |
Developing the ability to make sense of information |
Developing an awareness and understanding of distant places and environments |
Developing an understanding of spatial relationships at a range of scales |
