A massive thank you to Parramatta District Scouts and 1st North Rocks Scout Group for inviting 1st North Sydney Scout Group to join in on their incredible Ewok Village Construction event!

Taking inspiration from Star Wars and the iconic tree-dwelling Ewoks of the forest moon of Endor, our scouts put their pioneering skills to the ultimate test. Working together, they constructed elevated sleeping platforms a metre off the ground between the trees. It was also a fantastic opportunity for scouts across three patrols heading to the New Zealand Jamboree - Australian Contingent to meet, connect, and collaborate ahead of their big trip!

The real test came overnight when a storm rolled through, but our scouts’ engineering and rainproofing held firm—everyone stayed warm, safe, and completely dry! 🌧️💪

To wrap up an unforgettable build, the scouts celebrated with toasted marshmallows around the campfire, followed by a screening of Star Wars.

What a terrific weekend of bushcraft, teamwork, and adventure! Keep an eye out for it next year!🪵🔥✨

We are grateful for 1st Frenchs Forest welcoming our cubs and scouts to join with them at the Sydney North Region Scouts JOTA camp. Our youth members learned how to set up and use amateur radios and key skills like the phonetic alphabet to communicate clearly over the air. They also used a soldering iron to build a digital watch! The usual outdoor activities were not forgotten with kayaking and sailing on Narrabeen Lagoon.

🌲 3 Days, 25 Kilometres, and One Unforgettable Scout Adventure! 🥾

What a weekend for 1st North Sydney Scout Group! Our Scouts tackled an impressive 25 km hike over 3 days through the beautiful Garigal National Park. Carrying full packs and taking charge of their own navigation and camp cooking, our Scouts showed tremendous resilience, stamina, and teamwork every step of the way.

Here are a few highlights from our journey:

⛺ Camping & Self-Sufficiency: We set up camp at Frenchs Forest Scout Hall on Friday night and Belrose Scout Hall on Saturday, with the Scouts honing their outdoor living and cooking skills.

🦎 Local Wildlife & Scenic Views: From spotting water dragons and goannas to navigating rocky creek beds and scenic tracks, Garigal NP showed off its wild side!

🏖️ Harbour Beaches: We discovered secluded harbour beaches along the way — perfect for a quick dip to cool off from the walk!

A massive thank you to all our dedicated leaders who helped make this expedition safe and successful.

Last night, our 1st North Sydney Scouts took on an epic engineering challenge by the harbour! Over three hours in the dark, the troop put their knot-tying and pioneering skills to the test—mastering essential lashings and rolling hitches to construct a massive 15-metre rope bridge.

The ultimate test of their hard work? Every single Scout successfully made the crossing!
