Terms Three and Four at 1st Helensburgh Scout Group are going to be very busy for all sections.

Cubs and Scouts will be out camping over both terms with Cubs at Mt Keira and Scouts participating in state and region camps as well as their own overnight hiking adventures.

Cubs are also exploring their cooking, climbing, craft and art skills and entering into a codes and ciphers challenge set by Bagheera for term four.

Joeys are exploring our local fauna and habitats, both at the hall and out and about. This term they are building toy animals and habitats from their observations outdoors. Mostly though, they love their games and the chocolate at the end of Joeys!

Scouts are developing leadership skills through camping and patrol-led work and have produced a program full of variety! Like the Cubs, they are very keen on climbing and outdoor challenges and games.


We are nearly at capacity in Cubs, but if you are interested in your child checking out Joeys or Scouts, email bruce.crawley@nsw.scouts.com.au
