Year 5: Geography Fieldwork

April 01, 2022

Year 5 had a wonderful afternoon in Hornchurch where we took our Geography lessons out of the classroom. In the town centre, we asked the public a range of questions including their purpose of visiting Hornchurch and the means in which they travelled to the town centre. We also had time to conduct a traffic count (at three separate locations) before walking back to school. 

All of our fieldwork was then combined with the information and statistics that we had previously researched to create these informative posters comparing Tokyo and Hornchurch.
