Water & Electricity Visits

Water Visit 1 (2)

2nd Onchan’s Thursday Beavers recently had a visit from the Water & Sewerage Authority. Aisha and Matthew - who incidentally use to be a Beaver at 2nd Onchan many years ago - explained the water cycle to the Beavers and how clean, safe water made its way to their taps. They gave each of the Beavers an activity book, pencil and ruler. An informative evening which the Beavers seemed to enjoy.

Water Visit 3 (2)

Last month we had a visit from the Manx Electricity Authority. This again was very interesting and the Beavers were able to see how electrical circuits could be connected and broken using themselves in the process! They also explained about the sub-stations on the Island and showed the Beavers the different types of electrical cables they used, including an example of the cables found in the Irish Sea.
