Orienteering - Afu



Today Leon came into our class for our last session of orienteering. When Leon finished talking to us we had to go down to the junior playground where Elaina (Irine's daughter) was so she could give us the map. I chose to work by myself because it was easier and you don't need to wait for anyone in your team. There was 2 courses one on the field and one by the court I started on course 1, I had to wait 40 minutes till I could run to my first control. I waited for 40 minutes then Leon told me I could go, I looked at my map to find my first destination ( A ), I found it, the first control was in the parking lot out side the school. I had trouble trying to find it, I looked at my map again then I found it, I pushed the control down onto my paper then I went to my second destination. When I finished finding all 11 controls on the first course I went to Elaina for the next map ( course 2 ), I looked on the map for the first control of course 2 then I found it, it was at the back of rooms 1, 2, 3, and 4. When I finished the course I ran to Elaina and she wrote the time on the paper, it said 22:30. I could of done better by running faster. I enjoyed the last session of orienteering, and I thank Leon, Elaina, and Irine for coming to our school and doing orienteering.

Orienteering - Afu

Today for the yr 8's done Orienteering. We had to go around the school to find the orienteering control. I finished off with a time of 14:03, I think it is a good time because Last time we did orienteering I did not get to finish. Next time I can improve my time by looking at my map to find where the orienteering controls are.

Orienteering - Afu & Ana

Today the Yr 8's in LS2 done Orienteering. We had a Iron come in to tell us what we had to do, then we went to the junior playground. We had our piece of of paper with us, we had to line up into to 2 lines one line was the people who were working individual and the other line was with the people who were working in pairs, I was working in pairs, my buddy was Ana. We had to go to Irine so she could give us a map, then we had to run around and punch the holes in the paper. Ana and I only got half way because it was pouring down with rain and we had to go back to class. Ana and I had lots of fun doing orienteering.
