The Year 11 students, studying for their IGCSEs, explored owl diets and ecosystems by dissecting owl pellets. They also examined the effects of pollution by collecting and analysing samples from freshwater ecosystems. A highlight of their trip was a study on the distribution of limpets along the rocky shore at Filey Brigg.

Meanwhile, the Year 13 students concentrated on sand dune succession along the coast in Bridlington. They also planned and executed their Required Practical, investigating non-native crayfish at two different freshwater sites, bringing their learning to life through hands-on research.

Mrs. Helen Rai, Head of Biology, commented, "The students showed such great resilience and curiosity throughout the weekend. Their behaviour was exemplary, and it was a pleasure to see them so engaged despite the challenging weather. Special thanks to Mrs. Greenwood and Mrs. Johnson for their support over the weekend."

Fieldwork continues to be a vital part of the Biology curriculum at Leicester High School for Girls, with annual residential courses providing students with invaluable practical experience.
