Catch up

A busy end of term! just getting my breath back! Here's a few pics from the last week or so...










The Drum Corps were busy with parades at Baschurch and West Felton village fetes






...and also a special parade for the Royal British Legion BBQ to recieve their affiliation badges...




Our Royal Society book prize judges had their first meeting to see what the best new science books can inspire us to do! They will run a troop night next term to let the rest of us see how good the books are! (there is a fine tradition of the work of learned societies being done down the pub, and the chips and coke went very well with the science...)





!!!


We ran a climbing day at Llanymynech and did the SAS style abseil practice, and then as it was a bit damp, we had a quick scrammble through Llanymynech cave (nice cave and got suitably muddy!)











Did lots of planning at the end of term BBQ (but failed to hand out a lot of badges... will have to do that next term!) We did manage to award Evie and Lorna their Gold awards...



If you want to go for it, you need to let us know and we can plan it out with you - you will need to come to most of the meetings and follow up some of the activities yourself (not many of you finished the pioneering badge for example by presenting your finished knot board to Phil...), but all of you can complete this if you want to commit to it!)



...and finally we got our explorers together! (but let Philippa take the picture - we're not really that fuzzy it's just she keeps forgetting how to press the button...(!?))


...and finally (really finally) Mini-matt and Evie were sent off on Jamboree! (they're in Sweden now! very quiet around the house...)

Hurumph! I'm sure I took several - you're just choosing the one where Evie suddenly moved to make me look bad!
