| A summary of the Charity’s main activities and achievements in the yea |
The Beaver Section of the Group remained active during the year with the boys benefitting greatly from art and multi sport workshops. They took part in a full and balanced programme of craft, active games, stories, songs, visits and talks in order to educate and develop them physically, intellectually, emotionally, socially and spiritually. Parents reported that their children looked forward to the meetings and membership and attendance was high throughout the year. Charity work was also taken upon. Activities included: Getting to know each other, Autumn Camp, Halloween/Christmas/Easter crafts & parties, Chinese New Year, outdoor explorations, end of season party. Activiites for the Cub/Scout Sections have previously included: memory games, strategy games and learning activities, ball game, Bag Packing at local supermarket, residential joint camps (with Guiding), visits eg: Go Karting; but despite great effort is has not been possible to recruit additional leaders. Therefore the sections have unfortunately not met during the year. It is hoped that that the Sections return to their weekly meetings as soon as possible. |
