A level and IB Biology pupils, alongside those studying IB Environmental Systems and Societies (ESS), recently took part in our annual field day.

The day began at Warham Camp, where pupils carried out random sampling in two distinct areas of wildflower meadow – an excellent opportunity to apply ecological fieldwork techniques and explore biodiversity in a natural setting.

After a quick stop for lunch in Wells-next-the-Sea, the group travelled to Brancaster Overy Staithe. From there, they hiked to the beach and across the sand dunes, learning about ecological succession and how environments change over time.

Despite facing challenging weather conditions, our Sixth Form pupils demonstrated outstanding resilience and enthusiasm. Spirits remained high, and the rain did nothing to dampen their curiosity or engagement with the natural world.
