Littlehampton Museum

Walberton Cub Pack explored local history, got hands on with some of the collection and met local artist (aka Bagheera) at our visit to Littlehampton Museum last night.

Our thanks to Lucy and Jonathan for opening the museum after hours for us. We were surprised that so many Cubs (and parents) hadn’t visited the museum before. Its a local gem, with lots to engage the children, so go visit (it’s free!). Helen and Clare’s Celebrating Sussex exhibition is on display in the Hearne Gallery until the 6th May.

Arundel & Littlehampton District Scout Carol Service

1st Barnham hosted this year’s District Carol Service at St Philip Howard School, Barnham. The main school hall was packed out with approximately 300 members and parents from across the District.

‘The Light is Coming’ service was led by Father Martin Powell of St Mary’s Barnham and included traditional readings, prayers, hymns and some more creative festive contributions from our Beavers, Cubs and Scouts. The District band played a selection of tunes before and after the service helping us all get into the Christmas spirit.

Merry Christmas to you all.
