Our Squirrels section is for young people aged four to six years old.
We meet at the Scout Hut every week, with our Zog Squirrels meeting on Mondays and our Gruffalo Squirrels meeting on Thursdays, both groups meet from 4.15 pm – 5.45 pm.
All Squirrels should wear their uniform jumpers and scarves to their sessions, in warmer weather the uniform polo shirts, or 1st Keyham polo shirts are suitable.
You can buy uniforms from Blindman's Wood Scout Shop or online here.
Squirrels are usually aged between four and six years old, though they can move up to Beavers as young as five and three-quarters.
We offer 4 weeks free and then charge just £12.50 a month.
Our Promise!
A typical night
We don't really do "typical" as we like to explore a range of exciting adventures from arts and crafts to cooking and lighting fires to archery, we try so many fun new adventures together.
We usually start our session with a Welcome Song and our Promise, followed by a story about what that night's adventure will be.
A group of Squirrels is called a Drey and a Drey is made of Nests.
Our Gruffalo nests are named after characters from the book: Mice, Foxes, Snakes and Owls. Our Zog Squirrels are named after the dragons in the story: Pink, Blue, Green and Yellow Dragons.
We love telling stories at Squirrels!
Every week there is a Golden Squirrel Winner & someone will also get to take home our little cuddly friends Spikey & Oakley or Zog
