North South?

In school, my Science teacher taught us that for magnets, unlike poles attract and like poles repel. Which means the North of a magnet will get attracted to the South of another magnet. Compass works in the same way. In fact a compass is also a magnet.

Now, a compass North indicate the North pole. But, isn't it supposed to point to the South Pole? ??? Unlike poles attract mah! Confusing leh!!
