2017 Year 11 Geography students at northern beaches coastal zone
From Geography Teacher, Brad Thompson
Sydney’s Northern Beaches and the Biophysical Environment of Coastal Zones
Despite the grey skies and wet conditions last week, the Year 11 Geography class had a productive and educationally beneficial field trip to Sydney’s northern beaches as part of their study of the Biophysical Environment of Coastal Zones.
After a presentation at the Coastal Environment Center, Narrabeen, students braved the fresh conditions for some ‘hands on’ experience and a view from atop Narrabeen Head. The class then adjourned to the North Narrabeen Beach SLSC (due to the rain) for discussions of topography and beach management.

The day ended with a visit to Collaroy Beach where students observed the aftermath of last year’s destructive weather conditions and learnt about management strategies used in the area.
