Our seniors put their baking skills to the test and made some bread. One of our leaders lent them a coalman’s oven which fits handily over one of our coalman’s cookers. They made some great loaves, which were delicious with butter and syrup!

Beavers: Poppy Making
This week our beavers were busy making poppies for Remembrance Sunday, out of the bottoms of plastic bottles of all things! A bit of paint and they look fantastic. They then distributed them around the local area for people to find and take home.

This weekend our seniors planned a survival hike as part of their Bushman’s thong award. It involved a four mile hike and very little in the way of kit! It was a fantastic weekend for all.

Scouts: Cooking Night
This week our scouts cooked up a treat, homemade sausage rolls! However, we don’t have an oven in our scout hut so they had to find an ingenious way to achieve their baking. Who knew you can turn a coalman’s stove into an oven? They were, of course, absolutely delicious!
This week our beavers and cubs were exploring their artistic side by experimenting with Hama beads. These beads you can iron after arranging to permanently connect them into any sort of shape or design.

Seniors: Wood Store
Second week back and our seniors are already pressing on with this term’s activities! For many years, we have wanted our own wood store so we can keep the firewood for the group nice and dry. Tonight, we have laid the foundations for something great. Check back for more updates as the project progresses!
