Scouts
1st Kewstoke Scout Troop meets on Monday evenings between 7 and 9pm. Kewstoke is a very active Scout Troop undertaking lots of outdoor activities.
Scouts
Scouts are for young people, usually aged between 10½ and 14 years. A young person can come into the Troop at 10 and may stay until they are 14½ years old. The Scout Troop is the third section in the Scout Group, above Beaver Scouts and Cub Scouts.
Scouts are encouraged to take part in a wide range of activities as part of their programme. Participation rather than meeting set standards is the key approach, and for the Scout who wants to be recognised for his or her achievements there are a number of challenge awards and activity badges.
Scouts take part in a Balanced Programme that helps them to find out about the world in which they live, encourages them to know their own abilities and the importance of keeping fit, and helps develop their creative talents. It also provides opportunities to explore their own values and personal attitudes.
Scout uniform
Scouts consists of a green long sleeve shirt.
They will be presented with their neckerchief (neckie) once they are invested, the group provides all membership badges.
Our local supplier for uniform and scouting accessories is Outdoors and Active.
