RHA Geography Students Enter the Royal Geographical Society Young Geographer of the Year Competition

A number of our geography students at The Royal Harbour Academy have

entered the annual Royal Geographical Society’s Young Geographer of the Year

competition. This year, students from across the country were required to

produce a poster that investigated at least two islands, exploring their locations

and unique geography across people, places and environments, as well as

demonstrating the ways in which these islands are connected via geographical

themes, challenges and solutions. Twelve students from Year 7 to Year 10

undertook independent research in order to produce fabulous entries into the

competition, not only providing themselves with the chance to become THE

Young Geographer of the year, but also improving their own geographical

knowledge. We would like to congratulate the following students for their

excellent efforts that has led to them receiving certificates of commendation

from the Royal Geographical Society:

The winning students are Emilija, James, Angeleena from Year 9 and Gabriel from Year 10 and Michelle and Elsa from Year 7.

The Royal Geographical Society will be in contact in the near future to inform us of whether any further awards will be received. We wish them the best of luck!
