Compasses

Compasses are useful and fascinating pieces of equipment which rely on the earth’s magnetic north pole to work. Our range includes the chunky Compass Magnet which can be used in a bowl of water, and can demonstrate to children how early explorers used magnetism to find their way; to the small class set of mini Plotting Compasses which older children can use in science activities, e.g. to find which direction their classroom windows or playground faces.
