A team based Orienteering challenge for Primary School Aged Children
This is a 4 week orienteering relay.
TWO GIRLS and TWO BOYS make up a team.
This orienteering challenge is for students in Years 3 to 6.
However, if younger students have experience in orienteering they may enter.
It is held over four Thursday mornings before school 7.45am to 8.45am - to get those bodies and brains going!
(7:40am the first week for extra briefing.)
Dates and Locations for Spring SC-ORE 2020 are:
22nd October Lake Ginninderra Park (western side of the lake)
29th October Lake Ginninderra Park (western side of the lake)
5th November Black Mountain Peninsular
12th November Black Mountain Peninsular
i.e. not at schools this series, but in Nature Parks.
Cost
$28 for the 4 week series.
This includes pre-event instructional advice, full colour maps, provision of individual timing devices, full electronic course verification systems, online results and free entry to 2 public events upon completion of the SC-ORE school orienteering series.
Parents/guardians are asked to help out in some way to make this a success. Due to Covid-restrictions, spectators are not allowed, so helping out is a good way to be a part of it all.
Naming of Teams
Please follow the following convention for school team names.:
School name A, School name B, School name C, School name D, School name E, School name F, etc
EG Campbell A, Campbell B and so on.
PLEASE DO NOT USE NUMBERS or team names. Just simply use school name and a letter of the alphabet. This makes it easier for our computer entry set up. (If you can not provide a letter, put School X and the names of teammates in the comment field.)
Incomplete Teams
So you haven't yet got a full team. Don't panic!
If incomplete teams register, participants may still compete BUT may be considered "unofficial" for the purpose of the competition. The organiser will endeavour to make up complete teams even if these are mixed school teams.
