Dartmoor day for Barn Owls

Barn Owls spent the day on Dartmoor, between Sourton Tor and Widgery Cross, navigating and exploring. The compass work built on understanding from having studied magnetism last half-term.

It was a bitter day, but everyone warmed up once we properly got going. The children tried out a survival shelter, which was extremely effective in keeping the wind off.

Having such clear weather gave us fantastic views across to Bridestowe and Cornwall, and enhanced visibility when identifying landmarks and features of the terrain.
