Scouts
Scouts are young people usually aged between ten and fourteen years old. The Scout Troop is run by Wayne Smith (Kaa), Richard Ascough (Rama), Peter Sitford (Baloo), Amanda Kindred, Richard Downing, Paul Huitson, Zoe Roberts and Andrew Evers.
When your child begins Scouts it will take about a month for them to complete their Membership Award and give them a chance to settle in. Their investiture will take place at the end of that time. Uniform will be required for the investiture at which time they will be presented with the Group Badges.
Scouts may like to visit the Scout page on the National Scout website by clicking here as it contains lots of information about badges and Scouts in general.
