Beavers

Beavers are the next step on your scouting adventure. Every week our two beaver sections get together in what are called Beaver colonies, to hop, skip and jump their way through lots of different games and activities – achieving anything they set their minds to, and having lots of fun along the way.

Beavers are the next step in the scouting adventure. You can tell who are Beavers as they run around wearing their bright Turquoise sweatshirts.

We are involved in local community projects as well as challenging ourselves to try new activities, sports, exploring the outdoors and learning and trying new things.

Beavers are young people, aged 6 to 8, who:

  • Master new skills and try new things
  • Have fun and go on adventures
  • Make friends
  • Are curious about the world around them
  • Help others and make a difference, on their own doorsteps and beyond

 

Yes, this really is a young beaver who climbed up to the top at a beaver event!

Beaver Scout Promise:

The Promise is a simple way to help young people celebrate their shared Scout values. Every Beaver Scout promises to stick by these values when they become a member.

I promise to do my best
To be kind and helpful
And to love God.

There are alternative versions of the Beaver Promise available here:
