Scouts

(Boys and Girls Aged 10½ to 15)

Scout Troop meetings are from 7.00 - 9.00pm Thursday nights at the 1st Ermington Scout Hall and there are a large number of weekend activities to choose from including hiking, camping, canoeing, abseiling and caving. The fun and learning by doing are important, as the Scouts are trained to safely participate in adventurous activities. There is an award scheme appropriate to age and ability to improve the skills of the Scouts and encourage them to extend themselves.

New chums need to bring along a completed Application Form (Y1) at the first Scout meeting they attend.
