CHIEF SCOUT’S BRONZE AWARD

imageLast week George C. from Thursday Beavers gained his Chief Scout’s Bronze Award. This prestigious Award can only be achieved by Beavers who have completed all six of their Beaver Scout Challenge Awards (Promise, Friendship, Fitness, Creative, Global and Outdoor). It can take up to two years to complete these challenges and George has worked hard to make this happen, completing activities at home when necessary. So massive congratulations go to George.

MEA VISIT

Limageast week we had a visit from the Manx Electricity Authority. The Beavers were very interested and excited to see how electrical circuits could be connected and broken using themselves in the process! Some of the Beavers even managed to make a circuit by touching noses! Ian from the MEA also explained to the Beavers about the sub-stations on the Island and showed them the different types of electrical cables they used.
