The cub scouts were given a route within the school. They were to walk in pairs and complete a mission.

21. Campcraft Test

The Cub Scouts were tested on their knots and lashing skills/knowledge by the four Akelas.

"It's a sheepshank all right, but why is your rope still so long?"

The cub scouts did not have it easy; but a scout has courage in all difficulties:

20. Reflection Writing

Writing reflections is a core part of the learning experience in scouting. 

Cub Scouts reflect on the positive ATTITUDES (Scout Promise and Law) they have demonstrated; the SKILLS they have learnt (learning by doing) and the new KNOWLEDGE they have gained. The acronym A.S.K. summarises this simple reflection tool.

By the end of the second day, the cub scouts have gotten used to writing their reflections. Another reflection tool used was PLUS, MINUS, INTERESTING (P.M.I.) - where the scouts share what the positive and negative aspects of their experiences and what they thought was interesting.
