Published Date:

Lancashire schools are being offered free maps for 11-year-olds to encourage children to get out and discover the world around them.
Every year seven pupil can get a free 1:25 000 scale OS Explorer Map of their local area.
Ordnance Survey distributes more than 700,000 maps to pupils through schools every year. They also receive a copy of the leaflet Map Reading Made Easy Peasy.
This year Ordnance Survey is offering a special prize for the lucky school that orders the five millionth map. The winners will receive a commemorative map site-centred on their school.
In addition, Tony Robinson and the Time Team will host a day out for the eight pupils who win the annual free maps competition.
Teachers should place their order by November 30, 2008 on the Ordnance Survey free maps website – www.ordnancesurvey.co.uk/freemapsfor11yearolds
