Who are Squirrel Scouts?
Squirrels Scouts are children between the ages of four and six years. .
What do they do?
Squirrel Scouts enjoy an informal and flexible programme providing the children with all kinds of activities to HAVE FUN and MAKE FRIENDS!
The Membership badge
When a new child comes along to join the Colony, he will take part in three or four meetings before taking their Squirrel Scout Promise and being presented with his World Membership Badge. Parents/carer's are invited to the ceremony.
The Squirrel Scout Promise is I promise to do my best and to be kind and helpful and to love our World..
The Squirrel Scout Motto is Be Prepared
Dropping off and collecting at Meetings
Parents/Carer's are expected to leave and collect their childs from INSIDE the Scout Hall. Children must not be allowed to come into or leave the hall on their own.
Parents/Carer's Help at Meetings
Parents/Carer's are asked to help at Squirrel Meetings at least once a term. Please talk to Squirrel Leader for more details.
Training
As well as enjoying a fun packed programme, a Squirrel may also gain the Chief Scouts Acorn Award, which is gained after completing four challenge badges and two activity badges. Please ask a leader for more details of these badges.
