Hi there,
I’m from Harmony Hill Primary. We’re interested in letting our children take part in some junior orienteering activities next year (May/June preferably). They’re P6 (10 years old). I did something a few years ago in Armagh and it was excellent.
Kind regards
Neal
Neal,
In May and June LVO host a series of parkland orienteering events on Wednesday evenings. They will appear with more detail on our events list nearer the time. They are a gentle introduction to orienteering. I’ll also forward your enquiry to the NI Orienteering Association.
Regards, Geoffrey
