G28 Field work 3 July Gateshead Energy Centre

On Monday 3 July G28 students will undertake a day of Fieldwork at the Gateshead Energy Centre to look at their methods of energy and heat  production and Gateshead Councils Carbon Zero approach.  They will also be carrying out a historical enquiry on Newcastle Quayside to ascertain the foreign influences upon the architecture of our built environment. 

  • Students should be in school at their normal time
  • Students need to bring their regular kit for the day in a bag as there are exhibits in the site where students can take photographs and make notes using iPads for example.
  • Students will need a packed lunch for the day. If your child receives a free school meal, we will provide a packed lunch.
  • We expect to return to school at 3.15pm (please check the website for updates)
  • The visit will be outdoors, so students need layers to keep warm. The forecast is dry but a waterproof outdoor coat is  needed too. Sun cream and sun hats will be needed too. 
  • Students will be walking so comfortable shoes will be needed.
