The Jungle Book Story
A Cubs’ life is based on the Jungle Book written by Rudyard Kipling and introduced by Baden Powell himself.
As a result, he felt that many of the characters from the book were fun and playful, just like Cub Scouts. The important for the boys to have a wise leader like Akela, the wolf. Akela lets Mowgli, the boy, join the wolf pack.
The Cubs Pack
The Cubs is divided into patrols. Each patrol is a part of a Six which consist of smaller group of Cubs headed up by a Sixer and a Seconder. Sixers and Seconders are Cub Scouts who are chosen by Cub Leader Akela, to take on leadership responsibilities within their respective packs.
Firstly, they have both responsibilities to welcome new youngsters to the Pack. Secondly being extra helpful on camp, or taking charge of a certain game or activity.
Cub Scouts are led to live the traditional “Cuboree” Camp which is being held every four years. For this event, all the Cub Scouts from different groups are gathered for a few days to share a unique moment through different activities proposed by the Mauritius Scout Association (MSA).

Moreover, the Optional Program complements the Core Program by offering a wide range of activities that allow the Cub Scout to discover various areas.
