Orienteering

Orienteering at Barnstondale makes a fantastic introduction to very basic map-reading and is a fun way to get to know the beautiful Barnstondale centre. Children get the chance to work in small teams to locate check points right the way through the centre and our 15 acres of woodland. We like to add the competitive nature to it, leaving the groups to find all the controls as quickly as possible and before any other of the groups. Orienteering helps to improve confidence, communication, leadership & lifelong skills.
