Cub Scouts (Ages 8–10½): Adventure, Skills, and Independence

Cub Scouts is the action-packed next step for girls and boys aged 8 to 10½, building on the confidence they gained in Beavers. If your child is ready for bigger challenges and a little more independence, they’ll thrive here!

Excitement and real adventure are the heart of the Cub Programme. We dive into a huge variety of activities designed to push boundaries and foster growth:

• Bigger Outdoors: Cubs are introduced to more advanced outdoor skills, take part in thrilling adventurous activities, and enjoy extended camps and residential experiences. These are often their first taste of proper nights away from home.

• Diverse Exploration: The programme is incredibly varied, covering everything from fitness challenges and creative projects to understanding global cultures and different beliefs. They actively get involved in projects that benefit their local community.

In the Pack, the focus is on personal development and participation. We don't demand they meet set standards; we celebrate their effort and enthusiasm as they try new things. By joining in and doing their best, Cub Scouts earn a fantastic range of Badges and Challenge Awards that recognize their growing skills and independence.

It's the perfect environment for them to step up, make memories, and prepare for the next section: Scouts.
