We’ve posted the fantastic Beavers spring 2011 programme for this coming. We’re doing loads of fab stuff this term.
But please remember, to earn your badges you really need to make it to Beavers as much as possible, especially for the challenge badges as these are the ones that ultimately count towards your Chief Scout Bronze Award.
In what has now turned into a firm favourite for the end of term celebration, both colonies of Beavers once again headed for the Sandown slopes.
The weather stayed fine, the Beavers had a riotous time and some were even lucky enough to be swum up to Cubs that night! What a brilliant time everyone had and a perfect way to mark the start of the Summer holidays.
The “early” colony…
And the “late” colony…

Congratulations to the latest Beavers who have worked really hard and earnt their fabulous Chief Scout’s Bronze Award. This badge is the highest award available in the Beaver Scout Section and marks the culmination of lots of hard work, adventure and most importantly .. FUN!
Bliss, the special care baby charity, provides vital support and care to premature and sick babies across the UK. 3HH’s Beavers decided to get involved with the “cake a difference” week in order to fundraise for this great charity.
After a rather messy cake decorating session, the parents came back a bit early to enjoy a tea party hosted by the Beavers. There were lots of cakes munched, everyone had loads of fun and we managed to raise a whopping £100.20!
Thanks heaps to everybody for the support. And a special thank you to everyone who made cakes.

Please find attached this term’s Beaver programme.
The winter sports evening is now full, but there are a couple of spaces left on the pirate sleepover – just let me know if you would like a space. Also this term is “Twickeree” which is a large camp held at Marble Hill Park. Beavers will be invited to attend on the Saturday 20th June.
I will send more details soon. Cheers Jane
Beavers. I’ve posted the term’s Beaver Spring 2009 programme for you here to have a look at. We’ve loads of fun stuff organised and will be having a crack at our Friendship Challenge badge as well as becoming medieval knights.
See you soon, Jane
Our Beaver Scouts need YOU!
We have a fantastic opportunity for some Adults to join in the fun and assist us with the continued running of our two Beaver Scout Colonies on a Friday.
In order to keep running such a fantastic programme we do need some additional help and support. We are actively seeking two Assistant Beaver Scout Leaders to provide valuable support to our Beaver Scout Leader.
The mad professors in white coats came along to do some really cool experiments with the Beavers this week.
The Beavers kicked off by testing the strength of eggs by crushing them with monstrous amounts of heavy books. Eggtastic! Then they experimented with mixing alkaline and acidic potions just like in a weird laboratory.
Afterwards the HQ was awash with flaming lava flowing across the floor and plumes of choking smoke spiralling up as Mount Etna erupted (well sort of…). The professors showed everyone how to make some real exploding volcanoes for themselves !! It’s amazing how much fun you can have with home made play-dough, food colouring, vinegar and bicarb of soda. Simply Awesome.
Have a look through the photos to see more of what we got up to.
A huge thanks to the Mad Professor family for coming along and wowing the Beavers.
Just a quick note to let all the Beavers know that there is a very special Chrimbo sleepover planned for 20-21 December 2008.
If you’d like to join in, then please make sure you add your name to the sign up sheet in the HQ.
Hurry up though since there are only 24 places available…
The District Beaver Fun Day is taking place between 11 a.m. and 5 p.m. on Saturday 20th September 2008 at the Walton Firs Scout Camp Site in Cobham.
The theme will be “Olympics” and will cost only £8.50 per Beaver, which is for all of the activities including a souvenir. The Fun Day usually ends with a campfire and a big beaver shout!
If your child would like to come to the District Beaver Funday please fill out the attached form and return it to me by the 12th September.
Hope you are all having great summer holidays, Cheers Jane
(Apologies for not sending this out before the end of term)
A quick reminder to all Beavers and Scouts that there will be no meetings on Friday 4 July.
This is because most of us will be at Borough Camp!
3HH’s youngest section hosted their fellow Beavers from the rest of the District today for a fun filled ‘Explorers’ badge activity day. After a big Beaver shout at the 3HH HQ, everyone learnt some more about the Country Code before heading off into Bushy Park to explore.
Dear Beaver Parents,
Here is the revised summer program for Beavers this term. I have had to cancel the meeting on Friday 4th of July as I am away, and all the Cub and Scout leadership will be on Borough Camp. If you had signed up to help on that evening maybe you could help on another evening?
You may also notice that the last evening is invitation only. I thought that it would be a good idea to reward the Beavers who achieved one or more of the following: attending St Georges Day Parade, attending a Church parade or having a parent who volunteered to help. If you have any difficulties with this then please contact me or see me on a Friday evening.
Regards Jane
We have been invited to join the cubs for a sleepover on their Hawaiian Summer camp!
Where: Chalfont Heights, Denham Lane, Chalfont St Peter, Bucks, SL9 0QJ
When: 29th-30th of July. Times to be confirmed
Why: Fun, friends, loud shirts, silly songs around the campfire, camp activities, see what cubs get up to camp, earn a Nights Away badge and the chance to see Akala Jon in a grass skirt…maybe. Running around, being noisy and getting grubby may also occur.
If you would like to come to camp please fill in the slip at the bottom of the invite letter and return to me as soon as possible.
Jane
Hope that you all had a great holidays and are ready for more Beaver fun!
Attached is the Beaver Programme Summer 2008 Programme. We’ll be doing lots on “Famous Scouts” and will be working towards some new badges.
For parents, I’m after lots of help now that Wend has moved onto Cubs. There will be a parents’ rota available in the Hall and any offers of help with be most welcome. I can’t run Beavers without you all pitching in once in a while.
If you would like to help out and can do any of these dates or activities then please do let me know. Thanks!
See you soon, Jane
