Sycamore Class trip to Malham

To support our learning in Geography (Malham-How can we be a good tourist?) and science (Rocks) this term we went on a fieldwork trip to Malham. We walked up to Malham Cove in the morning following routes that we had previously planned in school and learned how the limestone cliff was formed. On the way back into the village we interviewed tourists about their reasons for visiting Malham and after lunch we carried out a traffic survey to help estimate how any visitors were in Malham. Despite the dancing through the rain drops all day, there wasn't a single moan. We had a fantastic time and learnt lots thanks to Rebecca Swift and her team from the Yorkshire Dales National Park Education Office.
