  The whole school took part in 'The 7 Wonders of Deal' fieldwork fortnight. The classes spent time exploring Deal high street, the seafront, local parks and landmarks. Some classes counted steps between key landmarks to help them create scale maps while others drew birds eye maps creating their own keys. Many routes were plotted using directional language, road names and landmarks as guides. What a great time everyone had.
