Geography Field Trip at Gardens by the Bay

On 11 March, the Secondary 4 Express Geography students embarked on an exciting journey beyond the confines of their classroom. In a bid to foster a more immersive and relevant learning experience, the Humanities department organised a field trip to Gardens by the Bay for a Geographical fieldwork.

The primary objective of this outing was to allow students to delve into real-world environments and explore geographical phenomena firsthand. Split into groups, students were tasked with interviewing visitors and tourists to gather data that would help them validate various hypotheses. This hands-on approach required the application of geographical fieldwork techniques and skills, offering students a practical understanding of the subject.

Beyond academic pursuits, the field trip also provided an invaluable opportunity for students to gain insight into the world of tourism. By engaging with visitors and observing the dynamics of a popular tourist attraction, students were able to develop a deeper appreciation for the intersection of geography and tourism in everyday life.

Overall, it was a highly rewarding day for our graduating classes, offering them a glimpse into the practical applications of their studies and fostering a greater understanding of the world around them.
