Scouts 10 ½ - 14 Year Olds
Scouts can be found all over the world, and there are more than 28 million, from Aberdeen to Timbuktu!
Scouts enjoy playing games, but not just any games, games that will stretch your body and your mind...
‘It’s good to get out basically. I wasn’t too keen to go to Scouts to begin with but now it’s a good laugh. All the activities we do are fun and I’ve made loads of great mates.’
Scouts usually meet on one evening a week, although they also go to weekend or week long camps and other day or overnight activities throughout the year.
Whilst the activities they take part in will depend on their age, each Section gives young people the opportunity to learn by doing. The main programme areas are:
- Outdoor and Adventure
- Global
- Community
- Fit for Life
- Creative
- Beliefs and Attitudes
Scout Leaders are trained to deliver this programme, ensuring our young people stay safe while they enjoy themselves and learn.
Badges
Scouts of all ages work towards attaining awards in their chosen activities, and are awarded Scout Badges. Scout's can achieve 9 Challenge Awards, the Chief Scout's Gold Award plus up to 92 Activity Badges from Aeronautics to World Faiths.
