Very well done to both our cub packs who took part in the District First Aid competition last weekend.They had to tackle a number of challenging bases, including:
- Open an airway
- Minor & Major cuts
- Burns & scalds
- Put a casualty in the Recovery position
- What to do at the scene of an accident
- How to get help
- Dangers in the home
Both teams worked well with the Eagles finishing 2nd and the Hawks 6th in the District.
Many thanks to everyone who has donated prizes so far. We still need some more prizes and it's not too late to send your donations in. Please hand these in to section leaders over the next couple of weeks.
Our annual family bingo in aid of the Scout Group will take place during February half term.
