The Lost Gardens of Heligan


It rained to begin with but it soon cleared up and everyone, armed with their electronic devices, spread out into the garden searching for minbeaasts in the spots indicated on their maps. The detail of the findings was logged quickly and the ICt held up really well in the deluge.

Then it was back for a warm and a drink before out again into the wider area of the gardens with each group adding places of interest and attempting to use as many of the functions of the kit as possible ... data collection, photographs and recording sound.

Teachers were interested in the accuracy of the GPS system and the children were able coaches, having absorbed the technology like the songes we know them to be.
