One of the HQ Commissioners Mr. Rusiate Tora with Viseisei Helth Centre and Ministry of Health educated young cubs about the importance of good diet, health care and sanitary living. Awareness from early years is vital since there is an increase in NCDs.
Malnutrition, anaemia, obesity are some major problems young people are now facing. Cubs 100 was an ideal occasion to introduce this type of learning. This was done on Day 1 and Day 2 at the Camboree site and all cubs, leaders and some parents went through this educational session.

Considering the restrictions on movement in our country, the scouts commissioners decided to plan and implement scout activities virtually so that scout leaders can continue with scouting activities online. Other countries going online also motivated me to start this initiative.
This project was done virtually.
After this virtual meet, more than 100 scout leaders were assisted with ideas and skills to conduct scouting activities online. These leaders then conducted separate training sessions within their scouting district.
Online learning is fun and educational at the same time. It helps run programs successfully. This online learning can be made better through more effective communication between scout leaders, implementation of fun scouting activities which can be easily done virtually and introducing positive reinforcement.

A group of scout leaders and rovers in partnership with Boy Scout (U.S.A) distributed water filters to villagers in Sabeto area in Nadi, the western side of Viti Levu, Fiji Islands. The water filters were from a voluntary organisation named GIVE CLEAN WATER.
The villagers were trained how to fix water filters and cleaning procedures were also told. The scout leaders and rovers travelled many places on foot and with the help of GIVE CLEAN WATER team it was a great success. More villages / remote areas will be covered in the near future.
