At Catshill First School and Nursery we want our children to love geography. It is our intent to inspire a curiosity and fascination about the world and its people and enable children to express well-balanced opinions about current issues affecting society and the environment locally, nationally and globally.
Our goal for geography education is that children develop knowledge and curiosity about the physical and human characteristics of the world, by developing:
- knowledge of diverse places, people, resources, spaces and environments;
- understanding of the processes that cause and change the human and physical features of the world; and
- geographical enquiry skills.
As a subject, geography impacts upon every aspect of our children’s lives and plays a crucial role in developing caring and understanding citizens of tomorrow.
In line with one of our federation core values – aspiration – we aim to develop possibilities for all! We want children to have no limits to what their ambitions are, aspiring to be:
- Cartographers,
- Town planners,
- Conservationists
- Weather forecasters … and so much more!
