Sunny September weather is just what the teacher ordered for Nat 4 and Nat 5 Geography fieldwork. Pupils visited a number of sites on the Braid Burn, collecting primary water flow data and assessing river bed composition. Back in the classroom this data will be used to explore and categorise the nature of the river at these points. An important learning point during the work was also that, when the water is deeper than the height of your wellies, your feet will get wet (yes, you know who you are, don’t deny it!).
