Scouts 10.5-16 Years Old
Around the time a child turns 10.5 years old they will begin their transition to Scouts. If they are already a member of Cubs then they will probably attend Cubs and Scouts for a few weeks, whilst they get used to the move. It is still possible, subject to space availability, for a child to join the Scouting movement at Scout level. A Scout section is refered to as a Scout Troup and our Scouts meet on Monday between 7.00 and 9.00 pm.
At Scouts children build further on the skills developed at Cubs with longer hikes during the day and at night, climbing, camping for longer, rafting to name a few with some meetings at the hall and a lot more visiting various places.
The Scout promise is:
On my honour I promise that I will do my best; To do my duty to God and to the Queen; To help other people; And to keep the Scout Law.
The Scout Law is:
A Scout is to be trusted
A Scout is loyal
A Scout is friendly and considerate
A Scout belongs to the world-wide family of Scouts
A Scout has courage in all difficulties
A Scout makes good use of time and is carful of possessions and property
A Scout has self-respect and respect for others
