Why this subject matters

At Notre Dame we place a big emphasis on environmental issues.  We look at the big questions facing the future generation and we try to equip our students with skills that will allow them to get at the truth behind the information we are all swamped with today. We enjoy trips and fieldwork where we encourage the students to appreciate the majestic world that we live in. Lastly we believe that learning should be fun and we try to make sure that this philosophy underpins our teaching.
