Our on-site orienteering course tests groups navigation, planning and teamwork skills.
Participants are given a map, and briefed on simple map reading skills before being set off on navigational challenges around the site. Working in small groups, pupils will use the map to find posts around our site that have the answer to a question that they will record.
This can be used as an evening activity.
During our sessions we highlight key areas of the National Curriculum. This benefits students as they can relate skills to real life.
