1EN/8E Battle of Britain Bunker Sleepover

Image
70 Beavers and Cubs from both 1st Ealing North and 8th Ealing got together for an unforgettable sleepover at the Battle of Britain Bunker.   It flew by! After dropping our bags off we were welcomed by an active RAF helicopter pilot with a very special job. So many questions... and no, there are no toilets on his helicopter.  After a quick bite, it was on to the activities. Starting with making our own RAF squadron badges: Building some straw rocket planes Lego flying contraptions And, of course, a tour of the historically significant Battle of Britain bunker.  This was followed by a late night treat and a movie. It was then time to get down and sleep under the Spitfire and Hurricane. Don't forget your soft toy! After (some) sleep it was time for breakfast.  After which everyone gathered outside for flag break and a few moments of reflection. There was just enough time to explore the rest of the museum before heading home.  Amazing!
