Cubs

Cub Scouts are young people usually between 8 and 10½ years old.

Cubs is the second section of the Scouting movement, originally started in 1916 for younger brothers who wanted a 'look-in'.

In nearly a century, the section has constantly evolved and adapted its programme and methods to meet the changing needs of each generation of young people, and these days admits girls as well as boys.

There are loads of fun things that you can do as a Cub Scout. You will get a chance to try lots of different activities like swimming, music, exploring, computing and collecting. If you do them properly you will get a badge which you can wear on your uniform. Cub Scouts also get to go on trips and days out, to places like the zoo, theme parks or a farm. Sometimes you will be able to go camping with the rest of your Pack. This will mean you sleeping in a tent and doing loads of outdoor activities.

We currently have two Cub Packs:

Hawks meet on Mondays between 6.30pm and 8.00pm
Falcons meet on Wednesdays between 6.30pm and 8.00pm
