Summer Term – Let’s explore Coast and Country

The Coast and Country topic is essential for fostering a sense of place and belonging among pupils. By exploring the diverse landscapes of Wales and beyond, learners gain a sense of cynefin and an appreciation for their local environment and their role in its preservation. This topic enhances their geographical knowledge and respect for the relationship between people and nature, nurturing a generation committed to sustainability. 

Coast and Country emphasises individual and collective responsibility toward the environment. It encourages pupils to reflect on their values, consider the impact of their actions, and develop empathy for both people and nature. The unit promotes outdoor learning, highlighting its benefits for physical and mental well-being.
