Scouts
Scouts are aged between 10 1/2 and 14. Our Scout Troop meets on a Tuesday night 7pm until 9pm. The Scouts are split into small units of six to eight Scouts called a Patrol, usually led by a Patrol Leader. Outdoor activities feature prominently, with the highlight being camping. Throughout the year, Scouts learn various skills, such as map reading, camp cooking and first aid in preparation for camp.
Rock climbing, potholing, gliding and photography are just some of the things they get up to.
