Year 6 had an amazing few days visiting Stanley Head and taking part in lots of activities to develop their geographical skills. They did mapping skills, looked at ordinance survey symbols, an orienteering activity onsite. They then used maps to navigate around Bagnall village. On the second day, they took part in a river study of the River Dane, starting at the source on the moors near Buxton and lower down measured the flow and profile of the riverbed. Year 6 discovered that the ground was peaty and they could feel it bounce when they jumped! They also discovered that the ground holds A LOT of water - as Mr Amison discovered when he missed his footing! See if you can spot him on these pictures! 

A huge well done to our Year 6 children! You worked so hard, had a great time and were fantastic role models for our school.
