The Cub Programme is run both in schools and in communities. Boys and girls get to learn whilst doing and enjoy big events where they meet fellow Cubs from other areas.  We spoke to Londeka Hlophe (10) from Sithandiwe Cub Pack in KwaZulu-Natal.

SSA: Why is Cubbing so much fun?
Cubbing is fun because every Saturday Akela teaches us something new.

SSA: What was your best experience with Cubs?
My best experience was when we did the Cub Rally, it was really nice!

SSA: What is the weirdest thing you ate outdoors?
I ate bush berries. That was weird!

SSA: What was the toughest challenge at Cubs?
The toughest challenge was doing the obstacle course we went to.

SSA: What was the most amazing place you visited with Cubs?
The most amazing place I visited with Cubs was Hammarsdale. It was fun.

SSA: Can you name a few things you have learnt by being a Cub?
By being a Cub I learnt to obey God and also to respect other adults.

SSA: What things have you done with Cubs to help people in your community?
On Mandela’s Day we went to an orphanage center to bring them clothes and also food.

SSA: What did you teach your mum that you learned at Cubs?
I taught my mum how to take care of a garden.

SSA: What makes a good Akela?
You can tell that an Akela is good when the Cubs are happy!

SSA: Why is your Akela special?
She is very special to me because she teaches me a lot!

Cubbing Rocks because … we don’t fight at Cubs!
