Scouting is for Girls and Boys Aged 5 – 25 and for Adult Volunteer Scout Leaders of All Ages.
Wilston Scouts run an educational program based on Respect, Ethics and Self belief! We teach our members skills in camping, bushcraft and bushwalking to enable self development in skills such as resilience, independence, teamwork, listening and leadership. All members get opportunities to develop leadership skills, whether it’s a youth member running a game or activity, organising a weekend off site activity, or an Adult being a Scout Leader for an activity at the section their child is a member of (e.g. Joey Scouts), or a Scout Leader of another section (e.g. Scouts)! Scout training provides invaluable life skills and opportunities to make life long friends. Imagine having friends in your adult life that you first met as 5 year old Joey Scout?
We are inviting Adults to become Scout Leader members and help deliver the scouting program. We welcome everybody who enjoys outdoors and mentoring kids to enquire about joining our existing Scout Leader team. Many hands make light work and the more leaders we have, the more opportunities Scout Leaders have to specialise in their preferred areas!
Adult Scout Leaders get free training, free membership and a significant discount on their children’s youth member fees! Its a perfect activity for parents with 1 , 2 , 3 or more children in the scout group!
