We enjoyed an evening full of spooky fun, with scary stories around the campfire, toasting marshmallows, creating our very own lanterns, and getting hands-on with some exciting magic experiments and potion making!
The Squirrels had an out-of-this-world adventure at the Petřín Observatory! We learned lots of fascinating facts about space, watched an film, and even got the chance to use the BIG telescope! After all that space exploration, we headed outside for some fun making our own conker comets!
A weekend of adventure and fun for the 18 brave Scouts who took on a two-day expedition in and around Dolní Bousov! 🗺️🧭 Despite the cold, the 4 groups embraced the challenge (without complaining!), each covering over 34km. 🏔️Our Saturday evening campfire🏕️🔥brought them all together to swap stories and re-energise for the coming day. Congratulations to them all! 🥳⚜️
🇬🇧🇨🇿 A Special Visit to 1st Prague Scout Group! ⚜️ On Thursday, we were delighted to welcome Dame Emily Thornberry DBE MP to 1st Prague Scout Group! Dame Emily is a British Labour politician and Member of Parliament for Islington South and Finsbury. She serves as Chair of the House of Commons Foreign Affairs Committee, playing an important role in scrutinising the UK Government’s foreign policy and international relations. During her visit, Dame Emily spent time talking to our Leaders, Cubs and Beavers, meeting our young people and hearing about their experiences in Scouting. She also learnt about British Scouting Overseas (BSO) and how 1st Prague Scout Group provides Scouting opportunities for young people in an international community here in the Czech Republic. It was particularly lovely to discover that Dame Emily had been a Brownie Guide herself when she was younger. She shared fond memories of her time in Guiding, reminding us that the experiences and friendships we make in Scouting and Guiding can stay with us throughout our lives. 💜⚜️ We were proud to share a little of what we do here in Prague and the work of The Scouts, bringing young people together through adventure, friendship, teamwork and learning new skills in an international community. A huge thank you to Dame Emily for taking the time to visit us, chat with our Cubs and Beavers, learn more about British Scouting Overseas, and share her memories of being part of the wider Scouting and Guiding family! #praguescouts #scouting #guiding #britishscoutingoverseas #SkillsForLife #scouts #thescouts
Our Cubs this week were thrilled to work on their Artist Activity Badge with local artist, teacher, and member of the 1st Prague Scout Group - British Scouting Overseas family Conrad Armstrong. We learned about watercolor techniques and then worked on our own still-life compositions. Of course, a great work of art needs a beautiful frame, so we put our pioneering skills to use to whip some up using square lashings and clove hitches. It is safe to say that everyone was out of their comfort zone at some point, but it was an evening of great fun together. At the end, we took a few minutes to pat ourselves on the backs and hand out badges earned at previous sessions and camps. And thanks so much to our new mentor, Conrad!
