First Blog Post (on www.everydayhero.com.au/mawson_lakes_cub_pack)
Mawson Lakes Cub Pack is keen to do and try anything. As a result, we have a well rounded program that helps the Cubs develop into the best possible people they can be. Like any group of 8 to 10 year olds, they are noisy, boisterous, creative, curious and eager. But they are also understanding and caring about each other. As their Cub Leader, I wouldn’t have them any other way. It is this reason why we are going to participate in this year’s Winter Sleepout – to gain an understanding of what it is like to go cold and how lucky they are that they have a home to go to every night. There are children, who through no fault of their own, living with their parents in Homeless or Domestic Violence shelters, in caravan parks or in cars in our cities. By having a sleep over at our hall will help raise awareness of those who are less fortunate than themselves, that it may be that the child sitting next to them in class who are not sure where they are going to be sleeping that night. I hope, as their Cub Leader, that by running this event in a ‘fun’ way, they will also gain an understanding of what it is like to be without
