Recently Clockhouse took a group of Year 5 children to an Orienteering festival at Stubbers. On the day the children were taught the skills to read a map and navigate around a course finding a number of checkpoints.
Clockhouse split into six teams to compete against other teams from a number of other primary school across Havering. Each Clockhouse team was appointed a team leader, The Clockhouse timings for the event were as follows:
Team Tia - 10mins 22secs
Team Miley - 11mins 28secs
Team Kamran - 13mins 27secs
Team Teddy - 14mins 6secs
Team George - 16mins 28secs
Team Honey - 17mins 19secs
Mr Yarrow commented on the schools efforts saying 'The children represented the school as fantastic ambassadors. Orienteering and outdoor adventurous activites is something as a school we will be looking to do more of over the next academic year, today these children had an opportunity to get a head start and I look forward to seeing how much they develop in a year. Well done to all involved I hope they all enjoyed themselves. Thank you to all the parents who helped with transportation, and to Miss Martin for her help and support on the day!'
Great work Clocks
