Scouting is an international movement to empower students with physical and practical skills and develop them into responsible citizens. The Scouts and Guides Program at our school was established in 2019.
Students meet twice a week for training by their Scouts Masters every Wednesday and Friday at 8 AM.
Some of these skills include marching, physical fitness activities, first aid, emergency response, knot tying, building of gadgets and pioneering, social service and volunteer work. Scouts & Guides also participate in Guard of Honour and March Pasts at major school events.

The neckerchief, as recommended by Scouting founder Robert Baden-Powell, can be a tool for first aid. It can work as a sling, tourniquet or bandage.
“Every Troop has its own scarf colour, since the honour of your Troop is bound up in the scarf, you must be very careful to keep it tidy and clean.” – Robert Baden-Powell
