Hello, Theo here! This month, it’s my turn to write the blog, so here goes... In case you are wondering what’s going on, then here’s a brief reminder. We (Iyla, James, Amiya and I) are all hoping to go on a two-week trip to Kanderstag in Switzerland in August 2027 to the International Scout Campsite. We’re really looking forward to meeting other Scouts from around the world, as well as taking part in some amazing activities in a beautiful location. From hiking in the mountains, to visiting a glacier and white-water rafting on a local river, it’s an action-packed adventure all the way (not to mention we’ve heard there’s good chocolate in Switzerland!). Obviously, an adventure like this comes with a price tag, and to raise funds for our trip we’ve got a busy schedule of events and activities across the next fifteen months. We’re going to be attending a lot of fetes and fairs, selling lots of items we’ve made, or have decided that we no longer need, or have had donated. We’ll be att...
The team of four originally set out with the goal of raising £5,600 to send themselves to Switzerland. Thanks to everyone’s incredible support, they have now raised £1,622.27 so far — including the pledged donation from JSWT. That means they are already 29% of the way to their target ! Their next fundraising event will be at the Sholing Valley Fayre on Saturday 16th May , where they’ll be running a stall throughout the day. Please come along and show your support — even just seeing a few friendly faces makes a huge difference! Spring Fayre | Sholing Valleys
I am going on Suisse27 with three other people from 9th Itchen Sea Scouts. It’s cool that Iyla, James, Theo and I are all going together. We met at Beavers and have been doing Scouting together ever since. The Switzerland trip is two weeks long. We are going to Kandersteg International Scout Centre (KISC), an international Scout camp. We will be hiking in the mountains, going to Bern to see the bears, going white-water rafting, and doing many other activities. I really want to try canyoning. The four of us are working together to fund our trip. We are going to do lots of fairs, a sponsored walk, and a quiz night. We are trying to raise £5,600. We are going to have lots of fun! from Amiya
