Cultural connection session
Our scout advancement badge is a sequence of four harmonious friends or the thuenpa puen Zhi. As a scout it is important to know about it. And as a citizen of Bhutan we must know how to offer Marchhang. As inspired by it, it is essential to protect our unique culture
It was implemented on school basket court. Our scout leader, called two Dzongkha teacher. We divided into two groups and we were taught separately. The main intentions for that is, SMALLER THE GROUP better we learn. But we couldn’t divided it further, since we had limited teacher and limited time.
They were able to know the correct way of offering marching. And they were also aware of the story of four harmonious friends. After the session we also sang scout songs and yells as a brain break and the joy of the session.
As a troop leader, I have also learned, the correct way of offering marchang. But if I had first learned the story and then shared among my advancement badge troop leader, their learning would have been more effective.
