Personal Enrichment
Proficiency Badges = Enrichment Activities
In Scouts, Proficiency Badges are awarded for achieving some knowledge and skill. With the slowing down of our daily activity, and limitations to our movement, we now have greater opportunity to channel our energy and focus our talents.
We will be scouring the internet to bring you resources that you can work through to help you to achieve the badges that are part of the advancement scheme of ScoutsTT.
