Peak District Explorers
Geography Fieldwork Visit to Macclesfield Forest
Year 5
29/04/2025
Pupils in Year 5 will be embarking on a Geography
trip to the stunning Peak District National Park for a
day filled with adventure and learning. This is a
fantastic chance for our children to develop their
Geography skills while enjoying the great outdoors.
The trip will kick off with an indoor session where the
children will compare maps and aerial photos of the
local area. They’ll have the chance to create their
own simple maps, helping them grasp the concept of
a ‘Bird’s Eye view’. After their indoor activities, we’ll
head outside to explore! In the open air, the children
will draw their own maps and learn about the eight
points of a compass, a vital skill for any budding
explorer. Additionally, there will be a set up of a
simple orienteering course on the grounds, where
they can practice their map-reading skills in a fun,
hands-on environment.
Further details of this exciting opportunity will be
available on Arbor.
