Iceland Trip

On Friday 4th April, 40 Year 9 and 10 students travelled to Iceland for a 4-day study tour to enhance their learning of key Geography concepts, such as plate tectonics, coastal and river landscapes and sustainable resource management.  Students enjoyed visiting the city of Reykjavik, the Blue Lagoon, Thingvellir National Park, Gullfoss Waterfall, and Hellisheiði Geothermal Power Station. They also experienced an active Geysir, the Kerið volcanic crater and the beautiful waterfalls of Seljalandsfoss and Skógafoss. Students also visited the shrinking Sólheimajökull glacier where they could see the impact of climate change.
