This week, Woodland Beavers met on the sandy area outside the Madley Park Co-op for our International Games Night and Investiture.
We all played:
- Boule – originating from France
- Quoits – originating from Roman-occupied Britain, in what we now know as England!
- Catch Ball – originating from USA
- Don’t Drop The Ball! – originating from Australia
Please don’t research these countries of origin too carefully, as there are some differences of opinion!
Here are some pictures from the evening:

Our outgoing Beaver Leader, Lindsay (Kite), kindly came back to invest our new leaders, Sarah (Eagle) and Jeremy (Badger).
This was followed by Badger investing our 4 new beavers who were all brilliant at making their promise. Congratulations to you all and welcome to our Colony and to the Worldwide Scout family!
Lastly, we said farewell to Kite, who has been our Beaver Scout Leader since 2017. Thank you so much Kite for your amazing service to the Mighty, Mighty 1st North Leigh Scout Group, we will miss you!
