Here is what our Squirrels and Beavers got up to in our latest sessions!
Squirrel Drey
Our Squirrels spent time exploring emotions last week, sharing what makes them feel happy, sad, angry, and calm. They also took on some important practical learning with the Green Cross Code, running through the five key steps to cross roads safely with an adult. Later in the evening, they teamed up to lay out ropes on the floor to form the Scout emblem, and we chatted about the Golden Acorn - the ultimate award for completing all Squirrel challenge badges, which got everyone really motivated!
Beaver Colony
The Beavers started working towards their Experiment Badge, as decided by the group last session. They built and launched straw rockets, learning how the air force from their breath propels the rocket forward. Afterwards, they turned their attention to knot tying - practising the reef knot and learning a figure of eight. The best part of the night was seeing the Beavers who caught on quickly patienty teaching and encouraging those who needed extra hand.
