Beavers have had a very busy month, so here’s a quick recap. First we had three new leaders invested to the section! Welcome to Ash, Holly and Rowan.
This month we visited Ballymoney library for story telling, attended the Beavers county Fun day in Maghera (see other post) and enjoyed an Irish themed night for St Patrick’s Day. Thanks so much to Candice and Caitlin for the beautiful Irish dancing display. Beavers also made some Irish joke fortune tellers.
Last week scout Alex helped beavers to earn their space badge. They visited space stations carrying out various missions about planets and constellations, watched a video of astronaut Tim Peake playing space ping pong and finished off with some stargazing.
Finally, it was time for a fun night at Drumaheglis Marina. Beavers had a woodland walk gathering ‘eggs’ along the way (even the rain didn’t dampen their spirits). Then on to Ash’s Scavenger Hunt where they found treats galore!
PHEW!!! I think we all deserve a nice rest after such a busy month. Happy Easter everyone!!!
Month: March 2018
The Scouts made soda farls at our St. Patrick’s theme night. Then they washed them down with a pint of ‘Guiness’ (coke floats). They finished off the evening with a bit of ‘potato harvesting ‘. Happy St. Patrick’s day!
Cubs undertook Emergency Aid badgework tonight. Practical hands on training was provided by Sheila, James and Sham from St John Ambulance.
Kaa, Raksha, Luke, Matthew and Akela where all victims and casualties and got tended to by cubs.
Badges were awarded by the team, many thanks!
Beavers had a very busy afternoon with beavers from all over the county in Maghera. There were crafts, catapult pioneering, bouncy castle and games. After a refreshment break they were entertained by a very funny magician named Lewie.
Crafts can be collected at Tuesdays meeting.
