An important message to Parents & Guardians
We encourage Scouts to show independence and be responsible for themselves wherever possible and appropriate. It is therefore really important that you encourage your youngster to read this update every week, so that they can ‘Be Prepared’ on their Troop Night. We greatly appreciate your support with this.
A competition for all Scouts
To all Scouts, read through this update so you can ‘Be Prepared’ and also have the chance of earning some ‘Scout of the Month’ points. This week you just need to answer this question: “Where in the Meeting Room on Troop Night will you find a Toggle?”
Write the answer down on a piece of paper and hand it in at the start of Troop night this week/Don’t forget to put your own name on the piece of paper. Your will get 10 points for the correct answer.
This Week at Scouts
At this week’s meeting we will be doing some Christmas crafts.
It is important that everyone wears full and correct uniform, Please remember that the uniform rules are the same for both girls and boys. Black, dark grey or navy socks and black smart footwear are compulsory uniform wear for all Scouts. Please remember that uniform shirts must be worn tucked into trousers. Leggings or very tight trousers are not correct uniform.
Please make sure you wear a t-shirt under your uniform shirt. If you wish to change out of your uniform trousers after flag break then please make sure that you are wearing a pair of shorts under your uniform trousers and you bring some old trousers to change into.
If the footwear you are wearing with your uniform is unsuitable for activities then please bring along some more suitable footwear to change into after flag break.
We may be working outside during the meeting so please make sure you have some warm & waterproof clothing to wear during the night.
Don’t forget to bring along a bottle filled with water or a suitable non-fizzy drink.
It’s a good idea to bring along a small backpack or daysac to put your drinks bottle, warm clothes and similar in.
Please remember that mobile phones are not allowed at Scouts. It is best that you leave your mobile at home. If you feel you must bring your mobile with you it must be turned off and put in your backpack or daysac, as soon as you come through the gate. It must remain in your bag until you have gone through the gate at the end of the meeting. If you break this rule, you will be put on fatigues, no excuses will be accepted. We cannot accept any responsibility if your mobile is lost or damaged in any way.
