“As part of the 30TH Venture Scout Unit this year, we have come to gain much more knowledge regarding the world around us, not only through natural expeditions and outdoor adventures, but also through realising the importance of self-reflection and evaluation.
The highlight of the year was definitely the Venture Scout Expedition, which was a 3 day, 2 night trip through the North-Eastern New Territories, past iconic locations like Pat Sin Leng and Plover Cove. Through doing reports on the geological environment of the area, as well as a studies on local wildlife, we were able to gain primary knowledge unique to our Troop, and hopefully this will prove to be beneficial to other Scouts expediting in the future. Moreover, being alone as a small patrol on this long expedition truly helped us reflect on our own performances and help us improve both as individuals and as team players.
During the year, we did other activities like volunteering for the Vibram Hong Kong 100 Ultra Trail Race; assisting at the Patrol Leaders Training Camp hosted by the Silver Jubilee District; and acting as supervising members of the Patrol Leaders Council in the Scout section to facilitate progress. These were all wholesome events that helps shape our characters as growing Venture Scouts, and we look forward to many more in the future in our Scouting careers!"
