What do beavers do?

Introduction

Beaver Scouts are our youngest members and generally meet for an hour per week term-time. Beavers are young boys and girls usually aged between six and eight years old.

Our colony is a friendly and active place for you child to join. Beavers enjoy all that Scouting has to offer; being introduced to outdoor activities, arts and crafts, explore the local community, day visits, sleepovers and much more!

Structure

A Beaver Colony may be organised into smaller groups called Lodges. Lodges can be used in a number of ways to facilitate the organisation of the Beaver Scout Colony. They may provide a ‘home’ area for Beaver Scouts to gather at points before, during or after the Colony meeting.

Activities

During their time in the Colony, Beaver Scouts will get a chance to try a wide range of different activities. Participation rather than meeting set standards is the key approach, and there are a range of challenge awards and badges available that Beaver Scouts can gain during their time in the section to recognise their achievements.

Meetings

We meet from 6.15pm until 7.15pm during school term time at St Columba’s Church, Park Terrace, Stirling FK8 2NA.
