Beavers Celebrate VE Day 75 Years
Although our Beavers are not meeting face-to-face during this Covid-19 situation, they are offered a summer term full of Virtual Programmes and Badges at Home by their Leaders that they can dip into and carry on with their Scouting activities at their own pace simply by following the task instructions, completing the activity and just sending in their great work, which goes towards achieving their badges.
Beavers and their Leaders joined the nation by celebrating the VE Day 75 on Friday 8th May 2020 with marvellous work. Apart from observing the important 2 minutes silence of remembrance, they wrote invitations for to HRH the Queen and their own families for a virtual Tea Party, cooked delicious Victoria sponge cakes, scones and made cucumber and other delightful sandwiches and various other goodies and designed and made colourful bunting. They all had a wonderful time and a day to surely remember and learnt alot about the history of the days events. They will receive a special Scouting VE Day 75 badge for completing their tasks.

Beavers Celebrate Chinese New Year
Beavers Celebrate Chinese New Year – The Year of the ‘Pig’
The Beavers celebrated Chinese New Year 2019, the twelfth sign of the Chines Zodiac, with dressing up and tasting various delicious Chinese dishes, cooked by Chefs, ABSL, Hazel and Norman Rider. The Beavers were greeted by BSL, Cherry in Chinese, “Nǐ hǎo” and they said their opening in Chinese too.
Then they played Chinese dragon boat games with Ash and Cherry before sitting down to taste and eat delightful food such as; fresh noodles, vegetable rice, egg rice, sweet & sour chicken, spring onions, spring rolls & prawn crackers. They even tried eating with chopsticks which was a challenge for some but still great fun!
The Beavers also covered various badge work such as their International, Cook & Healthy Eating.
They all had a wonderfully interesting and educational international evening and thanked the Leaders and Norman, then said a Chinese good night, “Zàijiàn” to everyone.
