We will explore the changing landscape around us – identifying change in our local environment, and the impacts – negative and positive – we have made. The children will explore the industrial heritage in the locality, its place in the wider world, and its impact on our local geography. Local visits help to highlight how our industrial heritage is celebrated, whilst examining how environmental damage is being reversed with the help of human intervention.
