Overview of powerpoint

• The powerpoint includes an informal introduction
  that touches on the previous Scout Law before
  introducing the new law. (The idea of being
  informal, is so it can be picked up by a Venturer
  and led by that person).
• This is then followed by the Venturer Module,
  which has an activity to do per value in the law.
  The activities are meant to be easily do-able but
  requires a certain amount of buy-in from the
  Venturers.
• Each section of the law has a different type of
  activity, Visual/Audile/Kinetic, so all Venturers
  can learn better.
• The do what is right, activity also has a chance
  to use social media.
• The powerpoint then has alternative
  games/activities for the Venturer Unit to select.

Game Time!

• Venturers and Leaders form a circle, with one
  person wearing a hat. From Go the person
  wearing the hat will pronounce Have Respect or
  Do What is Right or Be Positive, every time
  the hat is passed to the next person they will
  say the following value.
• The aim is to say the one value in sequence and
  as fast as possible pass the hat on before the
  timer is up! If youre wearing the hat when the
  time is up youre out!

Alternative game

• Charades
• The activity leader will have a list of objects
  the performing Venturer must depict, which are
  derived from our new values.
• The Venturer must either (at the discretion of
  the leader) draw, silently act or mould out of
  play dough the object given. First to guess wins.

The Venturer Scout Law Module

• This module is designed to assist Venturers in
  learning our new Scout Law. This module can be
  completed in small or large groups of Venturers.

Have Respect

• Having respect is an important
• value held within Scouting and the public at
• large. Venturers can be respectful by accepting
• that everyone is diverse and may hold different
• ideas to ourselves.
• As a team, construct and perform a short skit on
  how Respect can be given and earned. Skits should
  be of 5 minutes in length. Kinetic activity

Alternative activity for Have Respect

• New Zealand is becoming ever more diverse and
  its important that we are more accepting of all
  differences.
• As a unit, or as a group of Venturers attend a
  church service not of your original followings.

13
Do What Is Right

• As Venturers, were the elders of the
• youth sections. Its our responsibility to lead
  in doing what is right!
• This activity requires Venturers individually or
  as a unit to undertake a community service
  project of no less than one hours Doing what is
  right!
• Take a photo and upload it to our Facebook page.
• Visual activity

14
Alternative activity for Do What Is Right

• Our lives can be very busy as we move towards our
  personal goals. However its important to make
  sure we include time to be with our elders.
• Visit an elderly home and share some
  stories/gifts with our elder generations. Do what
  is right, and make our elders feel less lonely.

15
Be Positive

• Being Positive as a teenager, can be
• difficult when activities come off as corny
• For Be Positive Venturers must perform two camp
  fire chants. This can be in multiple small
  groups or half the unit vs the other half.
• Skits could include
• Aint no flies on us, My name is Jo etc.
• Audile activity

16
Alternative activity for Be Positive

• Being positive shouldnt have to be a chore! As a
  Venturer unit plan and undertake a night in and
  share a meal together discussing the highlights
  of your times in Venturers. Venues could include
  Macaas, BK, Breakers, or more simply the hall
  with a shared plate brought in.
• Its a good life being positive.
