On Monday 24th June, Year 8 children were split into four groups and each group was ‘dropped’ at a location unknown to them with a map, compass and a packed lunch. Their target was to walk back to Barrow Hills by 4.30pm and avoiding roads wherever possible. We did place a teacher at the back of the group to keep them alive!
I am delighted to say that all four groups completed their 10km walk well within the time parameter, the first group back to school made it in 3hrs and the final group was back in 4.5hrs. Excellent map reading Year 8!
