Secondary Alpine Explorations

Twenty-two lucky S7 geography four period students, accompanied by Prof. Kolkiewicz and Prof. Cawthorne enjoyed a breath-taking field trip to the Valmalenco Alpine region.

Over three days, students explored glacial landforms, agritourism, mountain tourism, hydroelectric power, and the impacts of climate change.

A standout event was a hike to the Fellaria Glacier, passing the Gera hydroelectric dam and Lake Gera.

This hands-on learning experience brought classroom concepts to life and deepened students’ understanding of both physical and human geography.

We are so fortunate to have these natural resources on our doorstep. Let’s protect them!
