World Wise Quiz

19th Nov 2018

Thank you to those pupils in Years 10 and 11 who attended the Geographical Association World Wise Quiz held in Queen’s University on Wednesday afternoon.

The pupils faced more than 50 tricky questions in rounds including OS map skills and ‘Quick Fire Geographical Knowledge’. Although they didn’t make it through to the National Final, they all came away with a better appreciation of the scope of the subject and the huge range of topics that Geography encompasses.
