Scouts is a programme of exploration. Scout troops offer learning programmes where children are encouraged to explore friendship, learning, challenges and adventure.
When you join Scouts you'll become a member of a group called a 'Patrol', who are Year 6 to Year 10 at school.
So, come and join Scouts and have lots of fun, explore new things, make new friends, experiment, accept challenges and experience the adventurous Scout life.
Scouts make the following promise, it forms the basic guideline for everything that SCOUTS do:
The Scout Promise
On my honour, I promise to do my best,
To develop my spiritual beliefs,
To contribute to my community, country and world,
To help other people,
And to live by the Scout Law.
To develop my spiritual beliefs,
To contribute to my community, country and world,
To help other people,
And to live by the Scout Law.

What Scouts
expects of you
Safety
We appreciate it when you
promptly collect your child. Let your
leader know if someone else will collect your child.
Absence
If your child is absent for any reason please call us.
Behaviour
Good behaviour is the joint responsibility of the child,
parent and leaders. Everyone is expected
to cooperate, follow instructions, and trust people and property with
respect. Leaders use positive
reinforcement and a reward system to encourage appropriate behaviour.

Scout facts
The generic term for members of all the sections is “SCOUTS”.
Not all of our volunteers wear the uniform.
Many of our volunteers help because they’re parents of a current
member. Many were not Scouts when they
were younger but have learned new skills and made new friends through
Scouts. Many of our adult volunteers say
they are more confident inn their everyday lives as a result of their
involvement with Scouts. All our leaders
are covered by comprehensive insurance whilst taking part in Scouts.
The Biggest Myth
…..groups are closing down through lack of youth wanting to
become members.
Nothing could be further from the truth. SCOUTS is growing. Adult helpers and Leaders
are currently our limiting factor. We
just don’t have enough leaders to run the exciting adventure programmes we want
to, with all the youth who want to join SCOUTS!
