Congratulations Blanka (one of our Patrol Leaders) from all at 1st Barry Sea Scouts

We have some absolutely outstanding news to share about Blanka - Having already earned her place at the Junior Mathematical Olympiad off the back of her brilliant Junior Challenge result, she went on to compete against 1,200 of the brightest mathematical minds in the UK — and finished in the top 40 in the country with a remarkable score of 55 out of 60!

From everyone in the Maths department and across the whole of SRG — we are so incredibly proud of you, Blanka. What an extraordinary achievement! 👏💛

Yesterday members of the Cub Pack and smugglers_explorers visited caerphillycastle for the official launch of Gwobr Cennin Pedr which is the new ScoutsCymru award celebrating Wales and Welsh Culture, both Cubs and Explorers piloted the badge earlier in the year and contributed to the final version of the badge.

Badges were awarded by Jon Williams, Chief Volunteer for ScoutsCymru along with Maddie and Jamie from the youth team who have led the badge project.

And as a bonus, Jon also invested new Cub, Oliver into the Cub Pack
