| Cub Scouts |
| Boys and girls aged between 8 and 11 can attend Cub Scouts. There are lots of things to do in Cub Scouts, like play games, learn codes and skills, places to see and new friends to meet. Each week at Cub's you get together with around about 25 other girls and boys which form your cub scout pack. For Cubs you have a uniform to show you are a cub and you will be able to earn badges to put on your uniform to show everybody. Weekends in Cubs are spents away camping, fishing, exploring and having fun. They visit all types of interesting places like factories, museums, zoos and fire department head quarters. In Cub's you will learn the Scout Salute, The handshake the motto, the grand howl, and the cub scout law and promise. The Cub Scout Award Scheme has four parts, The Boomerang Scheme, Achievement Badge Scheme The Scouting Family Badge and the Cub Scout Yellow Cord Award. |
