Scouts (Kids Gr. 3 to Gr. 8)
Our Mission:
Our mission in SMSJ scouts is to teach our children Christian values and life skills in a spiritual and fun environment. The children are exposed to experiences, activities and educational lessons that teach them values and skills they can use at every stage of their life in the church, community, and country.
When?
✞ Twice a month: 1:30 PM to 3:30 PM every 2nd and 4th Saturday of each month.
What is the Scouts Service and Scout Law?
✞ Scouts service builds values and skills in a spiritual and fun environment.
✞ The service is offered to children grades 3 to 8 and is held twice a month and runs every year from the beginning of September, when the Annual Ceremony is held, until the end of June, concluding the year with an amazing overnight camp.
✞ The scouts are taught the Scout Law, which is a list of qualities a true Christian scout must acquire. Our activities are structured to teach the children these values and to help them apply it in their daily lives whether at home, in school or at church.
✞ The Scout Law states “A scout must be trustworthy, loyal, helpful, friendly, courteous, kind, obedient, cheerful, thrifty, brave, clean and reverent”.
✞ Through a variety of different activities, children are taught different like skills, from learning to bake, create art, team work, first-aid, understanding the importance of physical activity, outdoor explanation (canoeing, hiking, cycling) and community service.
✞ To help encourage and engage the children, SMSJ scouts has an awarding system that allows the children to earn badges. A badge is earned only after the scout independently completes designated assignments specific to a value or a skill they were taught.
✞ An email address is required to communicate important messages via email
