Henry Park Pelican (Cub) Scout

  Written by: Claudia Kong, Sixer & Scribe Today is our first scout meeting after the handover. After horseshoe, in Indian files, attendance was taken. We were all very excited when Raksha announced that she would be giving out the Bronze, Silver, Gold and Platinum leather woggle for this year’s job week. A special edition Black leather woggle was also given out to the top earners of this year’s job week. Two cubs, Sean Daly and Alyssa Daly, tie in their earnings to become the joint top earners.   Next, Raksha & Kaa conducted a simple badge giving ceremony.

Written by: Lucas Tan, Assistant Sixer & Scribe Yeah!   The long awaited scout meeting of Term 3 has finally arrived!   Raksha had instructed us to bring four items, 1. Scissors 2. White Glue 3. Colour Pencils 4. Markers I had a feeling we would be doing something really fun today, and I was right! After the usual horseshoe, Mdm Kerina showed us a pack of ice cream sticks. She told us that we were going to make something very interesting out of these ice cream sticks – we were going to construct what we thought futuristic scouting would be like.
