Beaver Scouts

 

Welcome to Beavers.

Children can be beavers from 6 to 8 years of age.  The section aims to gently introduce them to the principles of Scouting by having fun and making friends. We run for an hour from 5.45pm on Tuesdays and Thursdays and enjoy activities both in the hut and outside.
Beaver Scouting is about:
