We began the year with "Extreme Survival", where we became explorers, considering how people live in extreme conditions, ranging from polar regions to hot deserts. During this learning, we used maps and digital images, as well as finding out all about Endurance's ill-fated mission and how Ernest Shackleton and his crew survived against all the odds. A highlight of this learning was the chance to go and work at Crookhorn College, where some of us even dressed up explorers ourselves!
