Bandicoot Pictures presents Magill Joeys

Our Joey Leader Bandicoot went on a trip to England with his family and took the opportunity to meet up with the English Scout group 3rd Coventry Beavers (in England Joeys are called Beavers). To show the Coventry Beavers what Joeys in Australia do in Scouting, Bandicoot prepared this short video of Magill Joeys to show while he was there. Enjoy!

Term 3 2010 Joey Program

Please find attached the Joey Scout Program for Term 3 2010 with a range of fun activities. The Joey Scout Leaders have incorporated a number of ideas from the chat we had with Joeys at the end of last term.

Please note: We are trialling a Y4 parent advice and permission form covering the whole of Term 3 activities. If you are happy to submit this one form for all activities run by Joeys in Term 3, please print it out, complete and bring along on our first night back (Tuesday 20 July). This will save us collecting forms numerous times throughout the Term.

Term 2 Programs

Please find below the Joeys, Cubs & Scouts Programs for Term 2 2010.

Lot’s of things to do and importantly the Group Camp is our main feature. Families are encouraged to participate in the camp. We are bound to have plenty of fun and challenges!

To all families attending the ZooSnooze

A few important final details…

  • Please ensure your Joey or Cub is at the service entrance of Adelaide Zoo, off Botanic Drive by 5.00pm FRIDAY. Since the Zoo is closed to the public at this time, late entrance is not possible due to security issues.
  • Assemble on the footpath. Keep the driveway clear due to Zoo vehicles exiting from the service gate at this time
  • Car pool with other families – ask around on Tuesday night to organise.
  • Please wear full uniform. This includes shirt, scarf and where possible stone coloured pants or shorts. Navy/denim pants or shorts are a good alternative if stone is not possible.
  • Pack light – remember this is just a sleepover! Youth members will be expected to help with carrying their gear.
  • Suggested gear list: sleeping bag, pillow, small soft toy (if required), toothbrush, comb, pyjamas, jumper, change of clothes/underwear, hat and drink bottle.
  • Dilly bags are NOT required.
  • All torches must covered with red cellophane. Please don’t bring LED torches.
  • Make sure all gear is clearly labelled, so we may return any lost property.
  • Adults attending may bring their car into the Zoo grounds overnight.
  • Collection is at 9.00am Saturday from the Zoo – again consider car pooling with other families.

We are looking forward to a great event. Please contact Karyn Leicester (Joey Scout Leader) with any queries.
