Founder's Day 2023





 Every year on 22 February, Scouts from all around the globe commemorate Founder's Day. Founder's Day is an important date on the scouting calendar as it is the birth date of Robert Baden-Powell, the founder of the world-wide scouting movement.  As for this year's Founder's Day , we were able to hold it in the Parade Square with the whole school witnessing the parade for the first time in 3 years. The event was planned by the Venture Exco alongside with the other S4 scouts.

The purpose of commemorating scouts founder's day each year is to reaffirm our oaths together as one and contemplate how scouting's century-old values are still relevant in today's fast-paced world.

 Overall, this year's founder's day was a memorable one as we were finally able to hold the parade in front of the whole school. The new S1 scouts were also very participative and put in their best effort when rehearsing for the parade. I would like to thank everyone who was involved in the parade, especially APL Ansley Padilla who took very astonishing pictures of everyone!

Venture Epaulettes Presentation

  At the break of dawn on 22 February 2023, the same day we commemorate Founder's Day, My batch mates and I were presented with our Venture Maroon Epaulettes in front of the troop. This signified the halfway mark of our Venture Training Programme. I was very fortunate to have AVSL Andrew Toh and Rover Sio Jia En to don on the epaulettes for me as they were exemplary role models and leaders to me. Ventures of 2007 batch  With the new Venture Epaulettes presented to us, it marks a new chapter in our scouting and venturing journey and we are excited for more to come as we work towards our Venture berets!
