Walton-on-the-Naze Coastal Fieldwork

Over one hundred students and teachers recently visited Walton-on-the-Naze for a Geography fieldwork trip on Tuesday, providing an exciting opportunity to bring classroom learning to life. During the visit, students carried out a range of fieldwork methods, including longshore drift tests, field sketches, wave counts, and environmental quality surveys. These investigations helped strengthen their understanding of key geomorphic processes such as erosion, deposition, transportation, weathering, and mass movement. Students will continue developing their coastal knowledge back in school by studying land reclamation in the United Arab Emirates and exploring how coastal management can lead to conflict in Miami.
