Gilbert White Center - Rivers topic trip
Thursday 7th November, Year 5 traveled to the Gilbert White Education Center in Selborne. We took part in three experiments in the river: velocity, measuring and creating a river profile, and catching small animals that live in the river. We also explored the extensive grounds during an orienteering activity and created river map with sticks. We are thankful it was a dry day.

We took part in activities of varying levels of intensity and measured our heart rate after.
We found that during steady, prolonged exercise, our heart rate would also remain steady but when we gave maximum effort for short bursts our heart rate would increase.
