Squirrels
An exciting addition to 1st Fordingbridge Scout Group. We started our Squirrels Drey in October 2023 for 4-6 year olds and on 15 January 2024 we were excited to invest them as the newest members of our Group.
Since opening the Squirrels have already achieved 4 badges: first aid, air activities, nights away and their community impact badge which included visiting the Green Gram, building a cardboard city and a visit to the community garden.
We've taken part in Remembrance day parade and District Camp, celebrated Burns Night, the Lunar New Year, St. David's Day, Founders Day and World Book Day. We've visited the fire station, took a bus trip to Ringwood and we've even met the Wonkey Donkey and not just in the book!
We've experimented, walked, crafted, cooked and tasted. So its no surprise we have always had a full drey. This year we have successfully seen 4 Squirrels go up to Beavers and a few jealous ones who can't wait to follow.
