Description

Children and teachers arrive at St Stephen's C of E primary school, Burnley. Shots include street scenes and children collect papers from their teachers, before they embark on their school trip. They explore the local countryside and follow a preset orienteering course to checkpoints, where they stop for refreshments. There are shots of the local countryside, farm animals, and wildlife. Some of the children wear cubs, scouts and brownie uniforms. At the end of the course, the teachers and children disperse.
