The Rolleston Kea Scouts, as part of Keep NZ Clean Week, have been working on their ‘helping others’ badge. A small group of Kea Scouts have been cleaning up the Rolleston Reserve and picking up rubbish. Over two nights they collected four large black rubbish bags and were understandably very proud of their efforts. The Rolleston Venturer Scouts have also been working on ‘helping others’ as part of the journey towards their Queen’s Scout Awards. At Bronze level Venturers need to ‘help others’ for ten hours over ten weeks and at Silver level this increases to fifteen hours over fifteen weeks. After looking at a few options the Venturers decided to organise a food collection from
within the group and then deliver these donations weekly to the Christchurch City Mission. The Venturers were well organised and went along to Keas, Cubs and Scouts to speak to the children about what the City Mission does, and how they could help collect donations. They suggested a skin g their classmates at school, their sports team, their neighbours and their extended families. The group has collected 54 brown bags of groceries to date, and the City Mission has been delighted to receive t h e se mu ch n ee d e d donations. Scout leaders and parents are extremely proud of the effort the Venturers have put in, as well as being grateful for the support shown them.
