For our term trip the Keas adventurered yonder to Upper Hutt to explore some wilderness, meet some animals and roast some marshmallows! We had an excellent time roaming around practicing our map reading and outdoor skills and finished off with a yummy campfire snack.

This week our Keas revisited our outdoor safety practices before breaking into teams to practice their navigation and cooperation skills around the neighbourhood! We finished off with preparing some yummy scroggin to take on our trip to Staglands.

At the weekend, Keas, Cubs, Scouts and their families took advantage of the glorious Wellington Spring weather and tramped to Red Rocks along the coast, sweeping up various flotsam and jetsam along the way.

With warmer springtime weather coming more frequently, our keas took advantage of the sunshine to explore the neighbourhood in their posses and hunt for leaves to make rubbings of to decorate the hall! 

Walls were climbed, bugs were found and we ended up with heaps of cool looking leaves for the kids to stick up on our wall next week, ka pai! 

This week our keas delved into the topic of zero waste and explored ways to repurpose household items to keep them in use for longer! We had a blast decorating flower pots to plant some watercress that can go in our sandwiches and salads for lunches. Yum!
