• Beliefs and Attitudes

• Creative Expression

Each Scout is expected to show personal commitment and be fully involved in the activities. The level of involvement will depend on the Scout's previous experience and personal ability. The activity should offer a challenge to those involved, but should not be seen as a pass or fail situation. An activity may not have seemed 100% successful, but the Scouts could still have learnt from the situation and gained experience. You should remember that in all activities you must try to encourage Scouts to achieve their full potential and reinforce their promise 'to do my best'.

As Leader, you should spend time discussing the Scout's previous experience, to make sure that the activities and challenges are at the right level for the young people involved. You may need to offer some training to Scouts before they start a challenge. The decision on whether a Scout has achieved a Challenge should be made by the leadership team, together with those who have provided the Challenge.
