The Glastonbury Festival is just under a month away.Sadly U2 will not be headlining on the Friday, although Gorillaz have stepped in as headliners...
I'll be doing some workshops with the GEOGRAPHY COLLECTIVE based on our MISSION EXPLORE books.
Don't forget the scheme of work that is based on music festivals and can be seen on the GEOGRAPHYTEACHINGTODAY website.
The scheme of work focuses on GLASTONBURY but could be adapted to other festivals.
I also have an excellent scheme of work based around the LATITUDE FESTIVAL (where Mission Explore will also be...) produced by James and Vicki Woolven.
Glastonbury also featured in the latest Countryfile magazine (I used my supermarket loyalty points to pay for a subscription) - the festival has a great deal to do with geography...
Got a bit of shopping to do in the next couple of weeks: the cheapest tent possible, some wellingtons, some joss sticks...
A few random Glastonbury stats for you:
- Over 170 000 tickets have been sold
- 1900 tons of waste will be created, of which around 49% will be recycled
- around 2 million litres of water will be used each day
If you're at the festival, come and say hello :)
