Scouts - 10½ to 14 years
Jump in and get muddy. Give back and get set. Scouts ignore the butterflies and go for it, and soon so will you.
Who are Scouts?
Scouts are a go-getting group of young people aged 10½ to 14 who:
- Master new skills and try new things
- Make new friends
- Have fun and go on adventures, at home and abroad
- Are curious about the world around them
- Help others and make a difference, in their local communities and beyond
Every week, our Scouts meet on Monday evenings from 7:15pm to 8:45pm to conquer the small task of changing the world.
What do Scouts get up to?
Being a Scout is al;la bout discovering the world on your own terms and making the most of what you have, wherever and whoever you are. Here's just a few of the things our Scouts get up to:
- Discovering the world
- Playing games and sports
- Starting small but thinking big
- Listening and lending a hand
- Getting creative
Scouts also spend at least four nights away each year, whether it's a sleepover at the hall, or a camping adventure as a section or with our friends in Cubs!
