The four week orienteering sporting schools program teaches students orienteering skills using a variety of active, fun and inclusive games. Some of the skills they  will learn are reading maps, interpreting map symbols and orientating the map (cardinal points/NESW) The program concludes with an orienteering course around the school or nearby parkland
