Thurles Beavers
The Thurles Beaver Scout Group have started back again, beginning on the 26th September last, following their Summer break, and the enrolment of new members is still continuing.
For those parents whose children may be still interested in joining this worthwhile group, note that Beavers are the Junior Section of Scouting Ireland. They meet every Monday night in the “Thurles Band Hall,” here in Stradovoher Road, beginning at 6.30pm until 7.30pm.
The Beaver section of Scouting is for both boys and girls, all aged between 6 and 8 years of age and costs are €3 per week.
I know as a parent myself, it is quite natural that I would want to be assured of my child’s safety and welfare, wherever they attend. So do be assured that as an organisation, Thurles Scouts personnel are fully committed to ensuring that all youth members learn, develop and have fun in a safe and totally secure environment. To this end they have developed robust child protection, recruitment and selection policies and procedures consistent with child protection policy and with all good practice guidelines.
Beaver Scouts are taught and indeed encouraged to take on tasks to find out about responsibility in a fun environment. They learn lots of new skills, but the most important thing is that they do it with other people, especially their friends, in an team building atmosphere, conducive to both fun and learning.
If you would like your child to be part of this organisation, why not find out further information by contacting Mary Tel: 086 2079213, Lyndsey Tel: 087 2139533 or Stella Tel: 087 6888799.
Note: Also if any adult is interested in helping out on a Monday night please make yourself known to the organisation, they are always grateful for any assistance.
