GEOGRAPHY students wrapped up in their thermals and enjoyed beautiful scenery, sunsets and even the Northern Lights during a trip to Iceland.

A total of 22 Prestatyn High School pupils and two teachers ventured to the Nordic island nation.

Pupils were taught about different cultures and by Hellisheidi Geothermal Power Plant on how they produce almost 100 per cent renewable electricity.

In a joint statement, pupils Liam Thomas, Charlotte Furber and Rhys Williams, said: "We spent several jam-packed days travelling across Iceland exploring and putting into context all our knowledge. Our time in Iceland truly inspired us as both young geographers but also as being active citizens.

"A common feeling among the pupils was not only the cold, but the sense of awe at what beauty natural process can create and how this could be used to benefit a society with such high levels of pollution and disregard for the environment.

Pupils visited locations such as the The Bridge between two continents, Secret Lagoon, Thingvellir National Park and Sólheimajökull Glacier.
