District Campfire on 21 Feb 09

See our cubs having a great time at the recent District Campfire held at Changkat Secondary School :

Road Safety

Our cubs had loads of fun role playing and learning about Road Safety on Saturday.

Here is what they did right

Waiting in an orderly manner at a bus stop :

Waiting patiently at a STOP sign with their vehicles :

And what they did wrong:

Dashing across cyclists 

Cycling across a zebra crossing without stopping for pedestrians: 

And just having plain fun

at a Petrol Station

Giving friends a ride

Learning about First Aid

Hi Cubs!

This is what you should put into a first aid box at home

Now you can help your parents set up a first aid box, so you can Be Prepared for any emergencies at home.

And in case anyone is injured, you can tie a bandage to help them too.
