Meerkats forged to the end of the year, completing the National Challenge, the Denboree and having a really fun time. The last part of the National Challenge was to learn something new, so we tried two knots. Knots don’t appear on the Meerkat programme, but they found them easier than tying a bow, which does!
The Denboree National Camp was a highlight. Together with 4th Claremont Fernwood and 1st Pinelands, the whole Den spent an active day and night at Glencairn Rotary Youth Camp. The wind was howling, but that did not stop the Meerkats, Cub siblings and parents from enjoying themselves.
Terran Ferreira was awarded his Gold Star. He and Luke Helfenstein started their journey up to Cubs.
Recycling, Keep Fit, Handcraft and other Challenge badges were completed, and the term ended with a grand party. We are looking forward to a holiday now, and to seeing everyone again next year.
