  ![](https://files.schudio.com/darwen-st-james-c-of-e-primary-academy/images/news/_YEAR_5_PE_17-6-24.jpg)   18 June 2024

During our first lesson on Orienteering  the children had to navigate a map of school to locate different objects. They also had to use their knowledge  of a compass to support them with this . The children had a lot of fun!
