Pointing In The Right Direction

Going left, right, backwards and forwards unsure if you are on the right track, we put nothing in it but effort and determination.

Today at exactly 9:30am we learnt about compasses and how to use them. Mr Jacobson came in today and he explained to us the wonderful ways of using a compass. We learnt that with compasses there are 3 arrows. The first one is the direction arrow, second is the metal arrow with two coloured arrows red and white, we learnt the red would be where north is. And last but not least there was an arrow which is on top of the metal arrow. We also got to know about the base plate and the rows.

It was now game time and we went out with our compasses and buddies and walked across to the field. We got sent off to different locations and where we got sent there was a sticker which had a letter and coordinates which would lead us to the next clue. We were running here and there up and down and were just constantly getting confused.

The winners in the end were Bethan and Pisi. 2nd was Me and Jahzara and last was Marika.
