Congratulations to Kieryn Gayson on receiving his 10-year service award! 🎉
Reaching this milestone is a fantastic achievement and a true reflection of Kieryn’s dedication, commitment, and countless hours of hard work over the years. His ongoing support, leadership, and willingness to give his time have played a huge part in keeping the 8th running smoothly. We are incredibly grateful for everything he does and are proud to recognise his outstanding service. Very well deserved 👏

🏕️ A camp doesn’t start when the Scouts are dropped at the hall — it starts months before they even arrive.
Behind every great camp are leaders planning programmes, chasing forms and payments, organising food shops, checking kit, and making sure every detail is ready for adventure.
And when the Scouts head home? That’s when the unpacking, cleaning, reflecting, and learning begin.
It’s the unseen effort — the late-night planning, the early mornings, and the post-camp tidy-up — that makes every unforgettable experience possible.
So here’s to our amazing leaders, who make the magic happen long before the tents go up and long after they come down. 💚
Thank you to my leaders:
Alice, Riann, Sarah, Jenny, Kieryn, Michael & Matt. Camp would not be possible without you guys!

🔥 Scout Skills in Action!
After two weeks of preparation — learning fire lighting, fire management, and teamwork — our Scouts finally put their cardboard ovens to the test! 🍕
The result? Delicious pizzas made entirely from their own handiwork and hard-earned skills. Well done, team! đź‘Ź
