Scouts needs you Due to its growth our Group is currently seeking new leaders, particularly for the Scout section. The good news is that it's never been easier to become a Cub or Scout Leader! Support your kids, help the community, learn some new skills and have a great time. Please speak to the Group Leader for further details. Remember – it is YOUR Group and we need YOUR support.

Our Cub Pack

Cub Scouts (8 years to 11 years) have a lot of fun doing a lot of interesting things. There are games to play, codes and skills to learn, places to see and new friends to meet.

Cub Scouts all help each other, and try to help other people too.

We meet on Mondays from 5pm-6.30pm during school term
NB as at 9 Aug 2010, the Cub Pack is full!
Each week you’ll get together with other boys and girls your age and be led into adventure. You’ll wear your own Cub Scout uniform to show you’re one of us. And you’ll be able to collect special badges to put on your uniform to show your achievements.

For Cub Scouts the Boomerang Award Scheme teaches everyday skills and is the major training program methods. For each level of the scheme (Bronze, Silver and Gold), there are 14 tasks that must be completed.

The Achievement Badge Scheme helps Cub Scouts to learn new skills and recognises their individual interest areas. Cub Scouts can choose from 34 badges that encompass the arts and literature; nature, science and technology; sports and recreation; and the wider world.

There are also seven Special Interest Badges for Cub Scouts: Landcare Badge; Local History Badge; Waterwise Badge; Our Heritage Badge; Language Emblem; Faith Awareness Badge; World Conservation Badge; and Cub Scout Leadership Course Badge.

The Grey Wolf Award is the ultimate award for a Cub Scout. It requires participation in a number of outdoor activities, attendance at Pack Councils, achievement of a number of Level 2 Achievement Badges and Special Interest Badges, and the development of a Jungle Book group resource.
