Urban Fieldwork

A SUPERB day - proper contemporary geography!"
Peter Price, Head of Geography, Charterhouse School

The 2012 Olympic Games is a unique opportunity to investigate change in action - the transformation of a derelict river valley, urban regeneration on a grand scale, the potential for a sustainable Olympic Games.

Of course, you don't need to wait until 2012 - it's happening now. And, as geographers, you won't lose interest after 2012 either! So why not try one of the FSC's one-day programmes? We'll show you what is happening in East London, the many things that are to be seen and explored.


The London 2012 Games present a unique opportunity to investigate Geography in action - the transformation of a river vlley, urban regeneration on a grand scale and the potential for a sustainable Olympic Games amongst others.
