Picture
On the 2nd July the cubs met in the garden of one of our leaders. Working together in 3 groups the cubs used the wood available to build and then light fires. The cubs were then tasked with cooking their dinner of sausages, jacket potato and baked beans. All 3 groups worked well together sharing ideas about how to build their fires and what was needed to help the wood catch light.

Pizza Making
On Friday 14th February the Cubs made pizza's.

​This involved mixing up the ingredients in a bag to form a dough by kneading the bag. The Cubs then took the dough out and rolled it out to form a pizza base.

The end results were excellent as you can see from the photo.

Invasion of Roverdene
Sunday, 7th October saw Beaver, Cubs, Scouts, Explorers, parents and leaders invade Roverdene Scout Camp Site for a day of fun. 

The day started with a treasure hunt, then collecting wood to build fire and cook lunch. The afternoon was busy with Rounders, canon races and a wide game - capture the flag finishing with a traditional camp fire with some new variations. ​An enjoyable day - relaxed and beautiful weather.

Cub Camp - May 2018 
Cubs spent the weekend camping at Boidierhurst Scout Camp Site. Activities included candle making, pioneering and  water transportation.
Saturday afternoon the cubs worked their way round an orienteering course that Graham had set up.

​The course was particularly devious with different correct answers for each team and two or three wrong answers on nearby trees.
