Our Wonderful World
The images on these pages are low-resolution versions of seven stunning photographs from around the world, which are available as A1 posters in a limited edition. The Our Wonderful World posters have been produced jointly by the Geographical Association and the Royal Geographical Society (with Institute of British Geographers).
Six of the images were selected from the Royal Geographical Society’s Picture Library and one was kindly supplied by the British Antarctic Survey. These images were chosen to show a variety of peoples, places and scales, and to reflect the scope of the RGS Picture Library collection. They will appeal to young people and adults, and can be displayed in classrooms, corridors, libraries, etc.

The A1 posters may be purchased via the Primary and Secondary listings on the GA’s GeographyShop.
Questions and activities
This site includes further information and specific questions and activities on each image.
Two sets of questions and activities have been devised: one for use with pupils in primary schools and one for use with secondary students. Teachers can use the questions and activities as a starting-point for devising their own. In their present form some of the questions and activities are more suitable for use with a particular key stage or age range; however, some from the primary phase can be adapted for use with lower-ability secondary-school students, and some of the secondary questions can be adapted for use with higher-ability pupils in primary schools.
The questions and activities for each individual poster are available to browse online or for download as Word files.
