Objects of Substance- Beatrice Monteath Jones Science Books

Beatrice Monteath’s detailed 1915 work.

I, Christine Jones, was born in 1956 and attended BGGS from 1969-1972. My exercise book contains records of various Science excursions I attended as an integral part of my Year 9 Science course. One of these excursions was to Point Cartwright to study a rocky shore ecosystem, and it is interesting to note that our current Year 11 Biology students still go to Point Cartwright as part of their mandatory fieldwork. I was delighted when I showed my current Year 11 class the diagram of the rock platform I had drawn so many years ago, and they actually recognised it!
