National PLTC 2025 🏕️✨

This weekend, our PLs, APLs, and Troop Leaders attended the National Patrol Leaders Training Course (PLTC), a weekend focused on learning, leadership, and growth! 💪

Unlike a typical camp full of fun and games, this one was all about developing key skills through interactive sessions on teamwork & communication, financial literacy, PLC roles, and conflict management 🧠🤝

On Saturday, the focus was on strengthening our own group, building bonds and growing stronger together as a SMC Troop 💙🤍⚜️
On Sunday, things took a fun turn with a Monopoly spin-off game called “Scoutopoly” 🎲, where members teamed up with Scouts from other groups to make new friends and put their new skills into action! 🌍✨

A weekend full of learning, teamwork, and new connections, well done to all who took part! 👏

Our Mission – Summer Camp 2025 🌍♻️

This year, our camp mission was all about learning to protect the environment around us and our members rose to the challenge! 💪💚

🦦 Beavers played a fun recycling game, learning how small actions make a big difference
🐾 🔥Pack & Unit joined forces with @zibelofficial for a beach cleanup, helping keep our shores clean 🌊
⚜️ Troop welcomed a special guest who shared fascinating insights on marine life, especially the importance of protecting different seaweed species and the ecosystems they support 🌱🌊

But it didn’t stop there:
🍦 We reused Benna (Malta Dairy Products Ltd.) yogurt cups to freeze homemade ice-cream
🥗 Parents were encouraged to bring reusable plates & cutlery for our BBQ, reducing single-use plastics
💧 And thanks to our Quartermasters, we had a camp water filtration system that gave us fresh, clean water cutting down on plastic bottles and keeping everyone hydrated sustainably!

Together, these small steps made a big impact, showing that protecting our planet is part of the Scouting adventure. 🌎✨

A big THANK YOU to Benna (Malta Dairy Products Ltd.) for supporting our Summer Camp 2025! 🙌💛

With their fresh milk and yogurts, we managed to keep everyone fuelled up throughout camp 🥛🍶 One of our leaders even made fresh mozzarella from the milk, which the Troop then used for their open-fire closed pizzas 🍕🔥 And with the yogurts, we whipped up homemade ice cream 🍦 reusing the cups to freeze it, giving them a fun second life! 🌍♻️

We’re so grateful for Benna’s help in making this camp even more memorable, tasty, and sustainable 💪✨
