A number of places are available on the Ready To Go Orienteering course taking place in St Mary’s National School’s hall at Millbrae, Stranorlar.
The course takes place on Wednesday, March 22nd, from 10:30am to 3pm.
Ready To Go Orienteering aims to equip primary and post-primary PE teachers with the skills and the ability to teach the fundamentals of the sport.
Orienteering is a competitive sport that combines racing with navigation, using the geographical skills of map reading and the physical activity of running or walking.
Orienteering appeals to a very wide age and fitness range and can be introduced to primary and post-primary school children through a variety of exercises and activities on the school site.
These activities are designed to enable the teaching of basic orienteering skills and associated physical skills in a fun and exciting way for your pupils.
The ‘real life’ problem-solving skills experienced in orienteering can help make geography, maths and science much more relevant for students, whilst also helping them build on their confidence, communication and social skills
