Creative Challenge - Woggle making

All the Cubs have been challenged to create their own woggle before this Wednesdays meeting.  They will need to bring it with them and is part of the Creative Challenge.  (It can also be part of the Artists badge.)  There will be a prize for the most original woggle that they can come up with.

All of the Cubs have been shown some of my own woggles for inspiration but I'm sure that everyone can be more creative.

Cubs- Activity Badge Challenge

All of the Cubs were asked two weeks agao to choose an activity badge which they could complete on their own before November 7th.  The sting in the tail was that if they didn't choose a badge they had to complete the Home Help badge instead.

On Wednesday all of the Cubs told me what they had chosen to do and excuses cut no ice with me - if they hadn't chosen then it was the Home Help badge.  The best excuse for not choosing was "I couldn't look on the internet because I was playing games online!"  Hodgkiss 1 - 0 Henry

All the Cubs have told me the badge that they will be undertaking.  These are the abdges that I will subsequently order.

On Wednesday 7th November all of the Cubs should bring the evidence that they have completed their chosen badge to Cubs.  This can include photographs, witness statements and any artifacts they have produced.  

Although we often complete activity badges (the red round ones that go on your sleeve) during Cubs they can all be easily completed with a little effort on the individual Cubs paart.  All they need to do is bring the evidence to Cubs and we'll happily award a badge.

I look forward to presenting a clutch of artist and various other activity badges.

Urgent need for wellies!!

The field outside the hut is extremely wet.  Can Cubs come in their wellies and bring their trainers too! This should be the norm until the path is once again reinstated.

Jamboree on the Internet

The Cub timetable shows that I had hoped to take part in the international Jamboree on the Internet this Saturday.  Unfortunately due to work commitments this now cannot be the case, we will though aim take part next year.

Wednesday 10th October - Book Reader badge

Don't forget that we're completing our Book Reader badge tonight.  To prove that you read regularly the Cubs must bring their current reading book and reading record/homework diary.  Don't worry though, no reading tests tonight!

We will also be asking the cubs to select an activity badge that they can complete on their own before the start of new half term.  Some parents have suggested the Home Help badge (making beds, keeping rooms tidy, basic cooking, hoovering etc.) and this is the fall back unless they can come up with someting better individually!

See you all later!
