Wrapping up with student presentations on the final day of our 2nd year Geography and Environment field trip to Sicily! We've heard projects on everything from volcanic river change to heritage food tours. One last sleep then it's back to Brighton 👍

Project day 1 for Geography & Environment students, turning their interests into rapid research projects. Today several groups are collecting data at the stunning Isola Bella bay - testing water quality, reviewing waste processes, & recording early-season economic activity.
