Hide AdKaleb said “I was excited when I got the last badges. My favourite one was the chef badge”.
A little over one year after opening the youngest section at the group, squirrel scouts (boys and girls aged four and five) started the year playing games and learning about Lunar New Year.
For National Storytelling Week, they dressed up as a character from their favourite story and then made up their own story together.
Visiting the fire station was in store for beaver scouts (boys and girls aged six and seven) where they learnt about how to stay safe. Some are looking forward to a sleepover later this term, the first overnight stay for many.

Hide AdCub scouts (boys and girls aged eight to 10-and-a-half) have been performing a range of science experiments, and have started learning about money for a recently released money skills badge. They also have plans to visit a local fire station later this term.
To be prepared for events planned later this term, scouts (boys and girls aged 10-and-a-half to 14) have been brushing up on their navigation and emergency aid knowledge, both important skills for life. They have also been bowling and had a Lego Masters building competition.
Jonathan Smith, lead trustee for the group, said: “All the young people at Flitwick Scout Group have fantastic activities put on every week, all thanks to the hard work and dedication of our volunteer leaders”. In addition to regular meetings, the group were fundraising in the community recently serving drinks and cakes during the weekly market at Flitwick village hall.
