This is the meaning of the emblem of the World Scout Badge

Task 2 : Caring for my Scarf

To care for my scarf I must keep it neat and tidy.

Area Badge

The Scouts troops are divided into 4 areas based on where the schools are located. The areas are North, South, East, West. My scout troop is in the North Area as my school is located in the North of Singapore. That's why I purchased a north area badge.

Every Area has 1 commissioner. The North Area commissioner is Mr Ang Wee Jin.

I hope to make more friends from other schools too when I start my scouting journey.

This is the North Area badge that would be on my uniform.
