A walk around the Gardens anyone?





 
 
 

 

 
 


Learning is fun! Really, you ask?  In Year 5 we work hard so fun is definitely part of our lessons too. This morning we took our learning outside the classroom and applied our Geography knowledge to the settlement around us.

We were investigating land use, whether it was used for transport, housing, public buildings, industrial use, commercial, and so on. Our very own Oasis Gardens compound offered us the chance to investigate these different land uses, and to plot them on a map.

Where do the ice lollies fit in, you may ask? Well, the compound shop does provide a service, so in the spirit of supporting the commercial use of land, Ms Kinghorn decided to treat us all to a lolly each.
