Camping, canoeing, roasting marshmallows, go-karting, baking, having adventures and making friends sounds like every child’s dream. The boys and girls of Canberra’s newest Scout group will be doing all this and more, all in the German language.
The German Australian Pfadfinder Scout Group will take children aged 6 and up, and will be accessible to north and south side families as their Scout Hall is in Turner. Pfadfinder is the German word for Scout and it literally means “path finder”.
“We’re very excited to be starting up this bilingual Scout group this year. 2008 is the Year of the Scout, and it is also the International Year of Languages, so it is very appropriate,” said ACT Scouts’ Chief Commissioner, Mr Neville Tomkins.
