This is a fun night with the jockeys being the children, on specially constructed "horses"
As the giant die is rolled, the jockeys gallop forward the relevant number of spaces, while the adult can place fun wagers, through the "bookmakers"

A fun evening for the family, not to be missed!

IT badge for all Sections

I have had a few enquiries about what is required for the IT badge.

I have checked out the following link:
http://www.itbadge.org.uk/
which is safe to allow your child onto. It will guide him/her through the various stages required.

On Stage One:
A certificate can be printed out at the end, after the Beaver works his/her way through the tasks.
If the parent can sign off tasks 1 and 5, and the Beaver brings it in (with the poster and picture from task 3 and 4) then I am happy that they have satisfied all requirements, and they will have earned their IT badge.

Note for cubs/scouts/parents: as this is a “staged” badge, cubs and scouts details are available from the same page with the same criteria
