The weekly video provides some interesting activities and also shows how cubs could put together some pre-recorded segments for the following week's program.

Be Prepared

When Robert Baden-Powell assigned Guides and Scouts the motto of Be Prepared, he could not have anticipated that it would have been implemented in relation to social distancing requirements.

Girl Guides Victoria published this special “Code of Conduct for Hosting Virtual Unit Meetings” is designed to provide guidance to Girl Guides Victoria volunteers, adult members, youth members, and parents/guardians of youth members, when organising and participating in Virtual Unit Meetings" on March 27, 2020, on their site https://www.guidesvic.org.au/category/resources/leadership-resources/.

I have copied it to her as I think it provides some good guidance.

Plan the structure of the meeting. Make it as similar as possible in format to a normal face-to-face cub meeting. Keep focusing on cub led.

• Opening
• Games and Activities
• Closing

Try to get all the cubs participating.

Keep the parents informed of the approach.

Don't forget to schedule and run Pack councils too.
