Following on from the Act of Remembrance Service, the Explorer Unit have prepared some activities which look at the Scout Promise – the promise that we all made when we joined Scouting and renew at least once a year, or when we move sections.
These activities will be led by groups of Explorers and will take place in Section Breakout Rooms on Zoom. The worksheets below are there to supplement these activities.
