Tonight, we made Diya lamps from clay with Cubs as part of learning about Diwali.

We have a special visitor coming to our campfire on Saturday to share food, and teach us more about the celebration.

Reminder to Scout and Explorer parents.

The young people asked last week if we could have a Halloween party tonight, and we said yes.

They can dress up if they'd like to, but don't have to.

Kaa is organising snacks (they've asked for ice cream, crisps and things)

And we've planned some fun games and activities. There may be goody bags too. 😉

Reminder. Halloween parties at their usual time tonight for Squirrels, Beavers and Cubs.

Dress up if they wish, well have snacks, apple docking, craft corner, games and a bit of music and dancing.

When you get gifted a huge amount of apples fresh from the tree.

Make crumble and Dutch Appleflappen. 😋

All 5 sections have made the most of the the opportunity. ❤️

Us leaders may need bigger trousers. 😆

Dear parents, carers and friends of 1st Barrhead.

I'm looking for a favour to help with some Christmas mischief. 🎄

Please could you clean out and donate used glass jars, and any of the little fancy glas pots that those yummy Gu puddings come in and drop them into the Scout Hall?

Also, were planning a fundraising jumble sale in early December, Sunday 6th.

If anyone is clearing out outgrown clothes, toys, books, household bits and bobs that would like to donate, please let us know. Anything gratefully requested as long as complete and in working order.

Unwanted (new) bottles would also be greatly appreciated for a bottle tombola on the day.

And lastly. There's always a school Christmas jumper day, and discos or parties at school and clubs.

If you've got outgrown Christmas outfits and jumpers, we're going to host a swap shop for those. The idea is I'll set up a table in the Hall for parents. Bring what's outgrown by your youngsters, and swap for something else.

Hopefully we can re-use and recycle, helping all our age groups work on their badgework.

Thanks!

Kaa (sheilagh)

Forgot to get any photos of the scones, but here's a couple of Cubs empire biscuits from tonight.

For our newly invested Squirrels. This is the layout of the group and district badges on the top of the right sleeve.

The purple promise badge goes on the left hand of their chest.

Just enjoyed some of last night's scones. They were very tasty. Well done Scouts and Explorers.

25/09/2026

What a great night! Leader Alan channeled his inner Heston Blumenthal, and we tried some combinations of foods that taste like other foods.

Vanilla ice cream and soy sauce= salted caramel ice cream.

Tomato and sugar= strawberry

Black chocolate and pickled gherkin= coffee.

We didn't waste food, what was left, we made into ice cream sundaes, or just ate as snacks.

And, as the parents will know, the scones and shortbread came home as no time to eat them. We even ran out of time to make the shortbread into empire biscuits. 🙃
