Active Kids (Boy Scouts, Girl Guides)


M. Frunzenskaya
Frunzenskaya Embankment

Is your child interested in doing new things, having fun in a team, learning to work together with others, to be respectful, and about all kinds of issues, like personal safety, Fair Trade and the environment?

I am member of the Girl Guiding Association (http://www.girlguiding.org.uk/) and a Registered Nurse (http://www.nmc-uk.org). I run an activity group in the city centre (near the Andreevsky Bridge at Frunzenskaya), to provide fun activity and friendship for English-speaking boys and girls aged 7-12 years old. Responsible teenagers who are interested in helping can join as young leaders. The group's motto is aligned to Baden Powell's principles (outlined below). The meetings are held on Thursday evenings from 5.00-6.30pm during school term time*.

Parents who are interested in helping out with the activities and/or have skills to contribute, please let me know.

The programme covers five main sections, which are:

o discovery (of new experiences and adventures)
o skills and relationships
o healthy lifestyles
o global awareness
o celebrating diversity

Every member is expected to commit to the promise and laws outlined below:

I promise that I will do my best:
To love my God,
To serve my country,
To help other people
and
To keep the Scout and Guide Law.

The Scout and Guide Laws are:

o Scouts and Guides are honest, reliable and can be trusted
o Scouts and Guides are helpful and use their time and abilities wisely
o Scouts and Guides face challenges together and learn from their experiences
o Scouts and Guides are good friends and look out for all other Scouts and Guides
o Scouts and Guides are polite and considerate
o Scouts and Guides respect all living things and take care of the world around them

*Term times will be aligned to the calendar at the following link: http://www.internationalschool.ru/info/Quicklinks/SchoolCalendar/

Please contact me, Lucy Kenyon, at activekidsmoscow@gmail.com if you are interested in joining this activity group.
