On Friday the cubs did an amazing job selling poppies, raising money for the Royal British legion. We have spent time learning about remembrance and then walked to the 3 village pubs where people were very generous. We now looking forward to showing our respect and marching as part of the remembrance parade on Sunday before going to the service.

Great value activity for this half term and a safe way to be in the water. It’s that mild you might not even need the wetsuit.

The Cubs and Scouts had a great night at Spring Lakes on Friday. They learnt essential water safety and survival skills from a life guard. There has been a lot of awful news of children loosing their lives while wild swimming in the recent hot weather. We discussed the safe places to swim, what to do if out of depth or struggling in the water, also the safe way we can help someone in the water.

They had time on the kayaks and paddle boards before having fun on the aqua park. Thanks you to Northwest Leicestershire community lottery fund for the grant which largely subsidised the event.
