Scout and Guides
THE BHARAT SCOUTS & GUIDES Movement was conceptualized as far back as 1890 by Lord Baden Powell and the first Scout Camp was organized in 1907. Initially, Scouting was a movement intended for the benefit of British boys. In or around the year 1911, a corresponding movement was started for girls and came to be known as the Guide Movement. In India, the Scouts Movement started in 1909 and the Guide Movement in 1911.The Movement of Scouting and Guiding is internationally recognized. The movement has the universal Motto “ Do your Best” for Cubs & Bulbuls ranging from the age group 05-09 years, “Be Prepared” for Scouts & Guides ranging from the age group 10-16 Years and “Service” for Rovers & Rangers ranging at the age group 16-25 years.
Considering the need of the time, Sacred Heart School took initiative to introduce this movement in our school. The long awaited dream of the school was actualized in the year 2021. A camp cum training session was organized in the school from 01st December to 04th December 2021. A total number of 81 students expressed their desire to be the part of this programme and 34 of them were scouts and 47 of them were guides. The inauguration was on 01st December 2021and the training was given by Mr. Alphonse Rapahel Lazar, a well-known scout master of North East and Br. Amal SDB. On the last day of the camp during the concluding ceremony ‘Pravesh’ certificate was given to the participants. The programme was solemnized in the presence of Mrs. Pranitha Medhi, the block resource person for education, Ghabharu, block Mazgaon, Sr. Annie Catherine SH, the Provincial Superior of the Sacred Heart sisters, Sr. Rani Maria S H, the counsellor for education, Sr. Solly Rose, the superior of the community, Sr. Jincy Jose SH, the headmistress, teachers and parents of scouts and guides.
