I pay tribute today to four remarkable Hornsby Heights cub scouts who received their Grey Wolf Awards in mid‑September.
The Grey Wolf Award is the highest award available to cub scouts. They were required to complete a range of tasks, including leading a hike for their peers.
Ten-year-olds Alex Matula, Declan Lees, James Leverton and Nicola Heath all earned their Grey Wolf Awards. They led their fellow cubs on a hike through the Lane Cove National Park where they had to use maps and compasses to navigate along separate tracks with their groups.
At just 10 years old, this is an outstanding achievement and shows that they are already developing wonderful leadership skills. I wish Alex, Declan, Nicola and James all the best for a very bright future.
