Children join Scouts at 10½ and leave at 14 years old. The children work for a number of challenges and proficiency badges with the ultimate achievement being the Chief Scouts Gold Award. There are a number of camps throughout the year and the opportunity to try numerous activities such as canoeing, cycling, caving, archery, shooting, cooking, surfing, skiing and hiking. The Scout Group will be going on its first international camp in 2014. (repeated 2 3 yrs)
Being a Scout
When you join Scouts, you’ll be introduced to lots of new activities, people and things.
Mondays 7.50pm – 9:00pm
Uniform and badge placement
You don’t need a uniform to join. But once you’ve settled in, you’ll start speedily earning badges, and you’ll need to know where to put them!
Scout leaders
All of our leaders are trained volunteers working to make Scouts the best it can be, but we don’t just need swashbuckling adventurers to lead our expeditions. We also need tidy-uppers and tea-makers and great listeners from all walks of life – for as much or as little time as they can spare.
