I've been lucky enough to be chosen to go on a scientific expedition to Mexico with Boroughmuir High School in June/July, along with around 35 other pupils. We'll be working with scientists at 2 different research sites which collect data about biodiversity in the areas. The expedition is organised by Operation Wallacea, an organisation of professors and teachers from universities around the world, who set up expeditions for school pupils to research and collects data on biodiversity.

I'm going to be doing a sponsored cycle to Glasgow along the canal systems on Easter Saturday to help raise money towards the trip and other equipment costs.

Thanks!
