Sweden comes to Douay Road!

International Module Mon 7th Sept 09

Hi All,

Please click on the above image to see some more pics taken during our first Scout meeting back after the Summer holidays.

We made the evening a little bit special by holding a themed event, and the theme was SWEDEN!

This is because the 22nd World Scout Jamboree is being held in Kristianstad, Sweden, in 2011.

It was also part of Carl, Emily and myself's leadership training and we thought it would be a nice way of welcoming the new members to our troop (mainly from cubs), of which there are many!

We therefore had a fun evening of activities planned for the troop, which included some Swedish cuisine, Swedish games, speaking some Swedish language and a Swedish picture quiz, all to the sounds of ABBA in the background.

We also asked the Scouts to wear the colours of the Swedish flag, which are blue and yellow.

And yes, I wore some blonde plaits?!

Enjoy!

Adam
