Geo-Trips :: Aldershot's Ocean, Sip 2
St Michael's School
A walk from Park Road, Thu, 8 Dec 2022 by Basher Eyre
preceding leg | This trip is part of a series. |
The English National Curriculum requires children in Key Stage Two (aged 7 to 11 years) to study their local area. This should be the streets around the school, where the children actually live. This may include a church, a shop, a park or a set of traffic lights. Or none of the above. It may seem small to us, but to a child it will be much bigger. This is walk two, a round trip from the junction of Church and Park Roads
