Term Introduction evening
Welcome back everyone – or at least those that actually attended!
With a massive amount of badges to hand out, it was a real surprise that we were able to do so without taking the whole evening! Ash handed out DVDs of the camp to all who attended, David handed copies of the pictures taken with a small badge (to be pinned onto the caps issued at camp).
With Ivor checking the badges, Ash and Malcolm talking to the Scouts about the term’s programme, David issued the rules for Scouts to gain their Heritage Badge. Details are listed below – and on the “Badge Challenge” page to the right.
Heritage Badge Challenge.
Each Scout has to provide information on:
- where his parents lived when they were his age
- where his grandparents lived when they were his age
- (if possible) where his great grandparents lived when they were his age.
So that the locations can be plotted on a map, just saying “London” or “Manchester” isn’t enough; however I don’t need to know the house number. This could prove interesting, especially if any of the family members were displaced during the war….
The deadline for getting the information to David is by Half term. Good luck!
