Investigating flood management

Running exclusively at Centenary Riverside, this free two-hour session offers KS3 and KS4 students a unique opportunity to engage with geography and biology in a real-world setting. Located on a specially designed nature reserve that also functions as a flood management site, this hands-on workshop brings classroom learning to life.

Students will:

• Investigate rivers and riverside landscapes with a focus on flooding and flood management.
• Explore historical and current site maps to understand how the landscape has evolved.
• Conduct a pond habitat assessment and take part in a guided tour of the site’s diverse habitats.

This session is ideal for Geography fieldwork and also supports Biology learning objectives, particularly around ecosystems and environmental change.

The session can also be adapted from our Primary ‘Exploring Wetlands’ offer to suit alternative provision or SEND groups.
