The Grade 11 ESS students embarked on an overnight fieldtrip to Sharhabil Bin Hassneh EcoPark recently. The local landscape gave our students the opportunity to apply the content and the skills of the ESS course, as well as experience their natural environment. Students conducted two stream studies, where they compared the water quality between the sites. Sadly both sites were heavy polluted, primarily due to human impact. They also did a zonation study to see how plant populations and diversity changed from the dam into the land. By the end of this trip, students developed their practical and observational skills and acquired knowledge, values and attitudes to protect and improve their environment.
