Beaver Scouts
...are young people usually aged between six and eight years
old. They belong to the first and youngest Section in the
Scouting family. Young people can join Beaver Scouts in the
three months leading up to their sixth birthday. They can
move to the next Section, Cub Scouts, between eight and eight
years six months.
Easily recognised by their distinctive turquoise sweatshirts,
Beaver Scouts enjoy making friends, playing games, going on
visits and helping others. They usually meet together once
a week in a Beaver Scout Colony.
Some Beaver Scout Colonies also organise Sleepovers. These
are often the first time a young person spends a night away
from home. They take place in suitable buildings, often Scout
centres.
