Wednesday 21st October

Hi all,

Tonight we went over the SPICES and how we included all on our recent hike up Bray Head.
S – Social
P – Physical
I – Intellectual
C – Character
E – Emotional
S – Spiritual

Have a think about everything you do and which SPICES you could apply to them.

Isobel brought down some lovely Cookie Monster buns for her Special Interest Badge, she had written out all the ingredients and steps to make them.
Jude brought down his skateboard and his projects about his favourite skateboarders, the types of boards, the parts and the different tricks.
He performed a trick himself.

We then decorated biscuits for Halloween.

We sorted out our Sixes and promoted new Seconders and Sixers.
Congratulation to all.

Bray Head Hike

Hi all,

The Rovers have organised a hike up Bray Head this Sunday.
We will meet in the Raheen carpark at 8.45am and hike up with the other Cub and Beaver sections.
We will return to the Den for a cooked breakfast (by the Rovers) and then the plan is to meet up with the rest of the sections in the Carlisle Grounds for 12.30 for a Group photo to celebrate our 50 years.
All the Cubs should wear warm clothes and study shoes/runners/boots.
A small snack and drink should be brought.

Cubs must wear full uniform.

Please confirm attendance by contacting one of your Leaders.

Tuesday 13th October

Hi all,

We went to the Mermaid Theatre tonight to see the puppet show Bláth.
Bláth is set in a world that has decided colour and plants are no longer needed. A boy finds a magical book and sees flowers for the first time. He then discovers a packet of flower seeds in a junk shop and must learn how to bring the flower to life.
Bláth is a non-verbal show that will enchant audiences as they enter a world made entirely of paper. Based on the children’s book The Flower by John Light and Lisa Evans.

Many thanks to the staff of the Mermaid who looked after us so well.

Wednesday 30th Sept

Hi all,

We did a lot of badgework tonight, the chief scouters are striving  to get finished off, and we have got all the skills badges sorted so that they know what they’re doing.  Cian has joined us from Scout to help out.   Oisin and Peter are doing music for their skills badge, Peter played a bit for us last night, and they’re going to do a trio with Cormac next week.  Cormac played a bit as well, we think we might have a few other musical instruments coming down next Wed.

Our trip to Knocksink will happen on the 18th October (weather permitting) times will be confirmed closer to the date.

We’re planning on going to the Mermaid Theatre on Tuesday the 12th to a puppet show.
Cost €5
Time 7pm at the Mermaid
Finish at 7.45pm
ALL Cubs attending MUST wear their knecker>
There will be no Cubs on the 13th
