Our Squirrels were very excited to join Playing Place Beavers on a litter pick! 🚯

They all did a brilliant job of making the playground, woods and skatepark a nicer area for others. Definitely embodying the “love our world” part of their promise ⚜️

The Squirrels also checked the various climbing frames for any litter too 😊

This week the Squirrels join Generation Wild at Gyllyngvase Beach!

We had a lovely time having a go at rock pooling. Among our finds were jellyfish, crabs and shrimps!

It’s so lovely to take advantage of the two universities in Carrick District Scouts. So many brilliant opportunities for our Squirrels 🐿️ 🥰

The Squirrels were very busy today!

We got out the pioneering poles to play life sized naughts and crosses! The Squirrels were very tactical ⭕️❌

Afterwards, we split into groups for s’mores and fire lighting, led by our young leader ⚜️

We also enjoyed Badger’s book tent and little free library. We have been very fortunate to receive a grant from BookRelief UK in order to set this up. The Squirrels (and their grown ups) can now borrow books between meetings to improve their scouty skills! 📚

We are very proud that our very own Badger won some awards at the Student Scout and Guide Organisation's AGM

The Oscar Award (creates the most drama) and The Broken Compass Award (most likely to get lost)! 🤣

Badger is getting a few exciting deliveries this week!

Tomperrow Squirrels have been lucky enough to receive a grant from Book Relief UK. Our stock of books to help the children with their Scouting skills will be growing substantially! 📚📖📒

Skippy and Badger had a brilliant time running a base for this! Maybe one day our squirrels will be the ones hiking 🥾 🥰🦡🦘

What a night ✨ Scouts from across Carrick District Scouts are back from the first night hike "Night Hawk Challenge" since the pandemic.

A huge thank you to every volunteer who made it happen and to all the Scouts who threw themselves into the walking challenge and the incident bases. You were brilliant. We hope even more groups join us for the next one!

Some of our Squirrels and adults were able to participate in the Squirrel Challenge organised by Mid Cornwall District Scouts.

They had a wonderful time and especially loved the s’mores and tuck shop! All of the Squirrels had a brilliant can-do attitude, even through the very wet weather. We are so lucky to have adults who will spend time to make sure these events happen for our young people! 🐿️☔️

We have had lots of enquiries for Beavers recently (which currently doesn't have enough volunteers to run) but the great news is that Constantine's fantastic Rainbow section has space for girls age 4-7. Please do get in touch with Lucy Chapman for more information.

Thanks Squirrels for another amazing term! It’s been so much fun learning all about what makes us special; being brilliant builders, meeting the animals at Pets UK, and improving our navigational skills! 🐿️ The Scouts

Today the Squirrels celebrated World Book Day!

We worked together to put up a tent and read “Maisy Loves Camping” ⛺️ We used a social heat gun and special pens to make our own personalised bookmarks 📖 Badger also read “The only way is badger” and played a game of badger tag (Badger was a big fan 🦡). We finished off by reading “the Gruffalo” and practicing our promise ⚜️
