Donation Draw n Up! the movie

Following Jobweek's Success...


EPS is glad to announce that through the hardwork of all the Cub Scouts Members,
we have gathered a total of SGD$2070 for The Donation Draw! *one of the highest in the North District*

GOOD JOB Scouts!
Your hard work has paid off!

-

A total of 47 Cub Scouts (who manage to sell more than 2 booklets) have been invited to watch the movie Up! at Cathay Cineplexes Causeway Point.

We thank the parents for showing their support by coming.
We thank the kind souls for buying the draw tickets from the Cub Scouts as well.
Your kindness will benefit the so many other under-priviledge ones in the society.

This movie follows the steps of our fellow Cub Scout Russell


Who went out in search of an elderly to assist in exchange for his "Assisting the Elderly" Badge.
and as the story goes, he met Mr Carl.




The movie opened with the relationship story between Mr Carl (who is an old man in present time of the movie) and his wife Ellie.



In the efforts to fulfil the "Cross Your Heart" promises he made, he flew with his house to Paradise Fall. Russel was brought along unknowingly, unwittingly.



In their efforts to save an exotic bird which Russel had lovingly name "Kevin", they met "Dug" a dog with a speaking collar.



The adventure unfolds as the villian "Muntz" gets introduced into the story.
-

Before this entry becomes a movie review, go ask any of the 47 Cub Scouts for more info, I'm pretty sure they'll be able to share!

It has bits for adults and a little more for the kids. *recommended for Primary 3 and up"

Apologizes for the lack of photographs of our Cub Scouts members.

Up! on 22/7/09

Date: 22nd July 09
Activity: Up! Badge
Location: EPS

This week, we spent some time working on the Up! activities so as to earn the Limited Edition Badge.

All of us had a hard but fun time finding the countless number of "UP" from the crossword puzzle, writing story, journal entries and coloring the character.


The older cub scouts doing the writing,


The younger one doing the coloring first.


It was huge challenge to remember all the 9 foreign items that we could only view for 2minutes,






Can you remember and draw them all down?


So far its 21 "UP" found in the puzzle, how many did you spot?
