Beaver Business...
Summer CampBeavers had a great camp this year at Everton. We started by all going
into the forest together to build castles. Each one was completely different and gave us a change to earn our imagination badge. We then split up, some to go on a hike, some to do a blind trail and the rest had a game of manhunt. We swapped about before having dinner and then our campfire and then settled in to watch 'Wreck it Ralph'. The following morning finishing touches were put to our castles and we had a chance to explore Everton a bit more. For some Beavers this was their first visit to Everton or their first chance to stay over at Everton and most importantly, earn some badges! June 2013 
Chinese New Year
Inverkip and Wemyss Bay Beavers celebrated Chinese New Year this week. They learned that people in Asia celebrate Chinese New Year differently that people in Britain.
The Beavers also used chopsticks to try and lift up sweets. It was really difficult! February 2013 Burns Night
Beavers enjoyed a Robert Burns themed colony meeting this week. The Beavers were treated to a small helping of Haggis, Neeps and Tatties, and were even allowed to have a little bit of IRN BRU!
The Beavers also designed their own tartan, if they didn't already have one. January 2013 Christmas Party
Eager Beavers from both Wemyss Bay and Inverkip were treated to a Christmas party at Fun World this December
The Beavers were able to enjoy themselves by climbing on the big ship,and had great fun doing the Gangnam Style dance. To top it all off, the Beavers got a special present of a giant tube of smarties!!! December 2012 |
Visit to Cornalees
This year all Beavers from Inverkip and Wemyss Bay got the chance to visit Cornalees. We divided into two groups - one went pond dipping to see what creatures we could find in our local environment and also set pitfall traps to look at an example of what insects live in this area. The other group went for a hike round the nature trail and we swapped over. Everyone earned another hike towards their staged hiking badges and we also got our adventure badge. New TermThis new term, Inverkip Beavers have moved to their new home at Inverkip Primary School. We wish to thank Inverkip Church for providing a home to our younger section for many, many years and we will continue to affiliate ourselves with the church. We really appreciate the church's blessing in our new home, and hope our move will help us to continue making links to the school community and the new Curriculum for Excellence. January 2013

Beavers from the 85th placed their own hands of Friendship on the "tree of life" to pledge their support for anti-bullying week.
