Year seven pupils visited Forest Green Rovers as the final part of a term-long study of the club’s green ethos and its plans to build a new stadium, Eco Park. The project has been running as part of our Geography curriculum for six weeks, and included lessons on sustainability, numeracy, geography and employment, before finishing with today’s field trip to The New Lawn
Students went on FGR’s Eco Trail Tour to find out about the sustainability measures in place at The New Lawn, got the chance to cook some vegan food, met club goalkeeper Sam Russell and discussed the club’s plans for Eco Park. Not only have our students enjoyed a fantastic site visit to our local football club, but they have developed important geographical skills and learning has been brought to life.
Thank you Forest Green Rovers and best of luck in the play-offs!!
