Over the past two weeks we have been taking ten Scouts at a time to the Flowrider at Heworth Leisure Centre. 

The Scouts left back at HQ have been working on the Astronautics badge. Yes there really is a badge all about space exploration.

Scouts have been learning all about how meteorites strike the Earth and making their own lunar landers. Next week they will be launching model rockets while the last remaining Scouts head out to get wet. Mr Lloyd has enjoyed taking pictures since he hasn't been allowed to have a go himself. He noticed that most poeple either do looks of extreme concentration - with their tongue sticking out for extra balance, or the popeye look - one eye closed. Some even did both! Either way it was described as "awesome" by the Scouts.
