Project Orion - Rovering with Turtles
is the 2nd Scouts of the World Award (SWA) Voluntary Service Project of the SWA Singapore Base.

Led by 9 Rover Scouts from Singapore and Malaysia, the project is set upon

the beautiful wetlands and beaches of Setiu, Terengganu.

Lasting 16 days from 20th June to 5th July, the team will not only be contributing to the

conservation of sea turtles, but will also be involved in mangrove replanting,
repair work for the villagers and WWF info centre, English and conservation awareness education,
assistance in the local women's cottage industry amongst many others.

"Leave the place a little better than you first found it." - Lord Baden Powell
UPDATE: The blog will be updated from time to time with more turtle new issues. However, Project Orion blog will be replaced by the next project when it starts with the new team. So, DO STAY TUNED!

Busy shopping for books

After we completed the Project GREASE workshop in RGS, some of us headed to Bras Basah Complex to buy some logistics for the kids at Terrenganu!

Getting flashcards...
many things to learn!!

Sijie and Nicholas
Things on our shopping list include educational posters, flashcards, English storybooks, stationary and many more!

I think we are going to have a lot of fun with the villagers both adult and young ones alike!!

Can't wait for the day to come to interact with the kids and teach them read! That would be an accomplishment for the team!
