New Chief Scout Silver Award holders

Many congratulations to both Felix and Harry on being our latest Cubs to earn their Chief Scout's Silver Award. They have earnt the award through successfully completing a combination of both the current Challenge Awrds and those that were running at the start of last year.

Presenting the badges and certificates was Katie, who came along to instruct the Cubs in two different dance styles.

Strictly Cub Dancing

A Dance Teacher came along this to teach the Cubs basics in the Waltz and the Cha-Cha-Cha. This was part of the Skills Challenge Award. Katie did a great job with them all - we didn't realise we had so many potentially great dancers...

Healthy Eating (Skills Challenge Award)

This January we are getting on with more modules for the Skills Challenge Award. This week we looked at healthy eating - doesn't everyone in January?
The Cubs looked at different types of food types and ended up with a game of Food Top Trumps!

2016 - One hundred Years of Cub Scouting

Also in December, we have got ready for 2016 - the 100th year of Cub Scouting. We have looked at the history of how Wolf Cubs became known as Cub Scouts, as well as the wider development of Scouting.

The Cubs will all be wearing this special badge for 2016 and we are looking forward to a fun year!

Christmas handicraft

We were busy making items for Christmas again this year during a couple of our meetings.

Remembrance Sunday

The Cubs (and Beavers) attended the Remembrance Sunday service again this year at St Andrew's Church. On the Tuesday before, each Six made a wreath themselves and these were laid along with  the Group wreath on the morning, as the clock struck 11.00am. Jessica did a great job in  carrying our flag.

Cyclist badge on Saturday 3rd October

Nine Cubs joined King Louie on a seven mile bike ride along Greenway. The Cubs then completed their Cyclist badgework at our meeting the following Tuesday. Well done to Kieren, Sonny, Fin, Alfie, Annabel, Beatrix, Jessica, Maddie and Martha for doing this activity badge.
