Beginner Level
Welcome to our Science: Extreme Earth Camp, an exciting journey into the wildest and most powerful forces of nature! Get ready to explore the thrilling and sometimes dangerous events that shape our planet. 

Over 5 days, this course will take you on a whirlwind tour through earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, tsunamis, hurricanes and floods. Each day, we will dive into a new extreme event, uncovering the science and geography behind it, the amazing photographs and the incredible power of our Earth.  Let’s buckle up and embark on this amazing camp adventure together!

Each lesson will cover many of the Science, Geography and Social Science objectives of the UK, USA and Australian curriculums so this course is an ideal way to keep learning going over the holidays or just for fun!  Every day, learners will complete an activity in class and will receive an additional activity to complete in their own time to reinforce their learning.  They will also be given a factfile on each topic which builds up into a mini encyclopaedia of knowledge.
