Homework Deadlines

Just a quick reminder of S4's Farming homework deadlines

4H - Thursday 5th June
4C1 - Tuesday 10th June

Welcome New S3

The Geography department would like to welcome you to Standard Grade!!!!

Over the next week you will be introduced to our expectations and the topics you will be studying. And of course reminded of our trusty blog.

Yes S3 there is no escaping...watch out for Mrs Stevensons sneaky updates. Inbetween changing nappies she likes to keep you all updated with the latest Geographical goings on.

Two years of fun, hardwork and hopefully enjoyable topics await you. The blog is here to remind you of any deadlines, give helpful hints and links to information that will help you with homework and of course give you links to revision websites.

We hope you find it useful.

Aberdeen's Western Peripheral Route

Use the links below to help get you started on researching your group's viewpoint.

Remember your powerpoint presentation should contain:

• A brief outline of the bypass plans
• An explanation of who you are representing
• What your main arguments are

Everyone should look at the official WPR website so you know as much as you can about the bypass route etc
