October 2007..

Trying to catch my tail here and catch up. We've had such a busy time during October:-

The Beavers have completed their Animal Friend activity badge, they undertook a 2 week diary of activites for their pet descirbing all the things they needed to do to ensure that their pet remains happy and well.

Beavers with our lollipop ldayThey've also completed both elements of the Safety Badge one part being the green cross code, and we invited our local neighbourhood lollipop lady to help us with this.

The second part of the badge incorporated a discussion in small groups around general water safety and the understanding of the warning signs displayed at beaches and rivers etc.

For a more creative evening, we invited the ladies from the local linedancing club to join us and teach the beavers (and us) some simple dance routines. Line DancingAlthough they may not admit it, the beavers really quite enjoyed themselves, as did we!!!! (Honestley)

We've also completed the Hobbies activity badge. The beavers individually, gave a small demonstration or talk about their chosen hobbie to the leaders and a small group. Its clear that we have variety of talent in the colony including:- cricket, fishing, football, swimming, gymnastics, walking and various collections. Quite amazing!
