Year 4 had a great afternoon at South Marine Park completing an orienteering course. The 2 groups had to find 26 markers, which contained a letter and a number. Using the letters and numbers we then had a quiz to complete. Along the route there were also fun challenges to enjoy. We all enjoyed using the map and searching for the markers.
