Send us a postcard!

Another little competition that I hoped would be in Hallmark this week, but for some reason didn't make it... However, I might as well tell you about it just in case...

The Geography Department would like you to send us a postcard this summer... It makes no difference whether you are going to Bakewell or the Bahamas - pick a postcard that shows what the place is like, tell us about where you are, what you're doing, what the weather's like, etc. and send it to Miss Ellis at school... The school address is available from the website, or email and I will send it to you.

One postcard from each year group will be selected in September, and its owner will win a geographical goody bag!

Geogtastic Photo Competition!

News should be going out in this week's Hallmark of a Geogtastic Photo Competition...

It is open to all SHS students, staff and parents, and all you need to do is take a photo over the holidays with a geographical theme and email it (together with a brief description) or bring it in to school after the holidays on a CD or memory stick. The closing date is Friday 20th April.

So, wherever you are heading, remember to take your camera with you. And don't worry if you're not off to foreign climes... There's plenty of good photography to be had in sunny Derbyshire!

Get snapping!!

Where in the World?

Unfortunately, the first of our Geogtastic competitions only made it into Hallmark today... The good news is that, as a result, the closing date has been extended to the end of Monday 29th January. Some of my form now know which country the building in the picture can be found, but haven't yet worked out the city or what the building is...

If you think you know, email geogtastic@yahoo.co.uk or bring your entry to H5 before the end of school on Monday...
