Cranham Scout Group

There’s no cubs next week, as it’s half term!

However, the week after, we’re having a bonfire at Cranham Scout HQ. So come there rather than the hall, and dress up warm.

Since we won’t meet next week as it’s half term, the cubs celebrated halloween today with a light-hearted evening of fun and games.

Then a lot of badges were presented at the end!

Sadly, the village hall has been double-booked, so we’re having to cancel next week (the 15th of October).

However, we’ll be back on the 22nd as usual!

Our apologies for the short notice.

Today we did some more badges; this time Sports Enthusiast and Physical Recreation. Basically, the cubs took turns to tell the others about a sport they follow (for Sports Enthusiast) or partake in themselves (for Physical Recreation). Once again, it’s a badge they get for something they already do for fun, so is rather rewarding.

Today we did two things: completing the navigator’s badge, and painting flower pots for a longer-term project we’re working on.

The flower pots went well, but the navigator’s badge didn’t - the level of spatial awareness amongst the cubs when it came to drawing a map of the village was surprisingly low!

We’ll need to try again later, after some exercises to sort that out.
