Geography West Coast USA Trip

By Mr A KELLY5th March 2015

Here are some photos of the Geography Department’s recent trip to the West Coast of America from 11th-17th February. As you will see from the photos, The Students, Mr Kelly and Miss Kara all had an amazing time, saw some jaw-dropping sights, learned lots and sampled some truly American culture!

The trip covered over 1,600km and we travelled through three US states, visiting San Francisco, Death Valley, Las Vegas, The Grand Canyon and finally onto Phoenix. It was quite the Epic Road Trip!

We really did have a superb experience and we have some wonderful memories that will remain with us a long time!

Under the Golden Gate Bridge We have had a great few days so far in The USA enjoying the sights of San Francisco, including the Golden Gate Bridge, Alcatraz and Twin Peaks. We were all amazed at how stunning this city is and we want to stay longer!

Today we are travelling to Death Valley and the next step of our road trip will begin!

 

Food Bank Visit

13th February 2015Anthony Da-Silva

‘It was a great experience to go to the local food bank, and it did make me realise that everything that we are doing is helping people, which felt good. I hope we continue to support collecting food for the local food bank, as people do tend to forget that people in their own community also may need support but are too embarrassed to say anything. Establishments like this food bank offer people support when they need it most, and as Catholics it is our duty to help. Thank you to all those who helped us make such an excellent donation’
