Apart from the academic aspect, we wanted to invest in a different type of education grounded in the value of voluntary work, learning and acquiring different life skills in the context of our natural environment. We thus took the opportunity to re-establish the Seminary Scout Group thanks to dedicated volunteers who came forward at the beginning of this year. Through this group boys and girls will have great opportunities to explore different kinds of things that go beyond the classroom walls. We feel that this is a sterling investment for our society as we encourage our children to become appreciative and insightful adults in the future.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The volunteers are currently undergoing regular training sessions organised by the Scout Association of Malta. The reasons behind these sessions are mainly to enhance scouting skills and to have a solid base for the formation of this group that instills positive attitudes and curiosity about learning new things.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"469\" src=\"https:\/\/www.maltaseminary.org\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/a7-1024x469.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1698\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.maltaseminary.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/a7-1024x469.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.maltaseminary.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/a7-300x138.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.maltaseminary.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/a7-768x352.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.maltaseminary.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/a7-360x165.jpg 360w, https:\/\/www.maltaseminary.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/a7.jpg 1599w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The formation of the upcoming Seminary Scout Group will essentially consist of the following sub-groups:-&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Cub Scouts \u2013 for exploration&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The age for this sub-group will range from seven to eleven years old.
