Orientation...

This idea would be useful for those exploring the school grounds... perhaps at the start of the new school year.
I was intrigued while carrying out some recent work for Mission:Explore to find a whole set of ORIENTEERING symbols were in use in a park as part of a 'treasure-hunt' style activity which had been set up for local school children.

The orienteering symbols have their own language, which those who enjoy the sport can enjoy.
The MAPRUNNER website provides the details on these. The main website for school orienteering has a range of useful resources to explore.

While we're on the subject of starting off the new school year, don't forget the GA Secondary committee has a number of resources related to the crucial first half term.
Some sort of picture-orienteering course might be a good way for students to explore the new school, which always seems 'so big' at first...
What have you been doing for the first month of the new term ?
