This is a map of our World. Where in the world do we live?

We live in the British Isles, also called the United Kingdom, it is coloured green on the map. We are part of one of the continents of the World and our continent is called Europe.

Look at this map of Wales. Can you see where you live? We live in one of the countries that belong to the British Isles. Our country is called Wales. Reproduced with permission from the Lonely planet website ©2005 Lonely Planet publications.

We can tell which part of the British Isles we live in by looking at our postcode. Our postcode is part of our address. Look at the address of your school and find its postcode. St Brigid’s School Plas Yn Green Mold Road Denbigh Denbighshire LL16 4 BH This is the name of a school. This is the area the school is to be found. This is the name of the road the school is on. This is the county. This is the postcode. This is the town the school is near.

What does your postcode mean? LL16 4 BH The first one or two letters is the postcode area and it identifies the main Royal Mail sorting office which will process the mail.

The second part is usually just one or two numbers but for some parts of London it can be a number and a letter. This is the postcode district and tells the sorting office which delivery office the mail should go to. LL16 4 BH

This third part is the sector and is usually just one number. This tells the delivery office which local area or neighbourhood the mail should go to.

LL16 4 BH The final part of the postcode is the unit code which is always two letters. This identifies a group of up to 80 addresses and tells the delivery office which postal route (or walk) will deliver the item.

You can find the location of a postcode on the internet by searching for it on a website that shows maps. Google maps is a good place to find a map of your postcode. If we type in our schools postcode here on the webpage it will find a map of the area our school is in.

You can have a map of the roads or a satellite map or both. Why don’t you write out your address and postcode and try to find it on Google maps? The web address is: Google Maps This is a link to the website. Main menu  Created by B J Hughes
