A Generous Gift for Geography Lovers

Congratulations to Lily Pigott-Denyer (8LC), the proud winner of the KS3 Jack Petchey Award!
In a wonderful act of generosity, Lily chose to donate her £300 prize to the Geography department, helping to fund an exciting new Geography library.
Housed in M19, this new resource features a jazzy rotating bookshelf on wheels and a growing collection of engaging, up-to-date reads. Some standout titles include:
- A Life On Our Planet by Sir David Attenborough – A moving and powerful reflection on the environmental changes Sir David has witnessed over his lifetime, and a hopeful blueprint for a more sustainable future.
- The Future of Geography by Tim Marshall – A fascinating look at how space, satellite technology, and geography will shape the geopolitical world of tomorrow.
- We Are Displaced by Malala Yousafzai – A deeply personal collection of stories from refugee girls around the world, highlighting both their struggles and strengths.

The hope is that this library will inspire the next generation of geographers and spark a lifelong curiosity for the planet and its people. Students are warmly encouraged to check out the collection in M19 and speak to a Geography teacher to borrow a book over the summer.
