Scout Meeting 26th November 2015
When we went in we stated our charter. We went straight into a game called the “123 game” where you have to switch with people and run around. It’s very energetic and great fun.

After that we did our patrol corners and talked about what we were going to do for the group, this is because we are currently working on our Terranova bad

We hadn’t done any work on this for about a year so it was pretty much back to the
