8pm Sunday March 21st.
Scout Hall available as Temporary refuge - NOT open yet. (NOT official)![]()
(Any updates will be made to the 1st South Penrith Scout Group facebook page and website at www.southpenrith.org.au/
Please message the page OR contact the Group Leader if space is required) ![]()
As Scouts we acknowledge and celebrate our position in the community.
We are well aware of the current situation in the Penrith local area with the recent/current rainfall and evacuation orders being made the local SES. (www.ses.nsw.gov.au/evacuation-notices/flood-evacuation-order-western-parts-of-penrith/) ![]()
As Group Leader, I'd like to offer our scout hall at 70 Glenbrook Street Jamisontown (Adjacent to Jamisontown Public School) as a possible location for use as a temporary refuge for those who so may need it.
Unfortunately we don't have any bedding in the hall but there are plenty of chairs, hot showers, urn and kitchen facilities and free WiFi (Thanks Aussie Broadband !) along with some laptop computers for those who may need to make contact with loved ones. I'm sure we could rustle up some blankets and food if required..
I live locally and currently work from home so can be reached at short notice if necessary.![]()
Please feel free to share this post/page throughout the community.![]()

9.36pm update - post amended to REMOVE "evacuation centre" and replace with "temporary refuge" to ensure no confusion with regards to any official nearby resources if/when they're published.![]()
The nearest official evacuation centres are:
North Richmond Community Centre - 33 William Street, North Richmond
Richmond Club - 6 E Market Street, Richmond
Castle Hill RSL - 77 Castle St, Castle Hill NSW.
The scouts are doing some refresher work tonight on the NYP (New Youth Program).
Whilst it’s been around for a little while now it can be seen the adult leaders have done a LOT of work in mapping “old” badge work to this program along with recent activities and how they fit in.![]()
