Emergency Aid Stage 1

Beavers recently earned their Emergency Aid Stage 1 Badge.
Beavers had to understand and recognise the dangers inside and outside the home. They also learned what to do at the scene of an accident and how to deal with minor cuts, scratches and grazes. Of course, they took great delight in bandaging each up with imaginary broken arms and legs!
Finally Beavers learnt how to open an airway, which they are seen practising in the photos on a Little Ann resusitation dummy.

Pets at Home

Beavers visited Pets at Home, Blackburn as part of the Animal Friend Badge.



Beavers were given an insight of how to care for various different animals including feeding the fish, stroking a bearded dragon, as well as cuddling rabbits and guinea pigs.

Akeema Shield







Ski Rossendale December 2009



Beavers visited Ski Rossendale in December 2009 along with other Beaver Colonies from across Hyndburn District.



Beavers took part in sledging and tubing, hurtling down the slopes on rubber rings, great fun!
The evening was bitterly cold, but made extra special as we had real snow which added to the excitement.

The evening was rounded off with a visit from Father Christmas.
