Introduction to Ariel Beaver Scouts
Beaver Scouts are the youngest section of the Scouting family. Their activities are based around making things, outdoor activities, playing games, going out on visits, investigating nature, listening to stories, learning how to be safe and most importantly, making new friends and having fun.
Monthly subscriptions & Attendance
Payment of subs is standardised across all sections (Beavers, Cubs, and Scouts).
Subscriptions are £10.00 per month, collected on the first Friday of every month. This covers all Friday evening activities, hall hire and maintenance, refreshments, and any badges awarded.
In the event of non-regular attendance during a particular month; the weekly cost will be £3.00.
If your child is unable to attend due to illness or prior commitments then please let me know.
Meeting Times Friday evenings – arrive at 5.45pm, collection time is 7.00pm.
Uniform
When your child has been coming to Beavers for two or three weeks they may wear the turquoise Beaver Scout uniform sweatshirt which can be bought online (www.scoutshops.com) or from certain school uniform shops.
We will present the group neckerchief to your child once they have completed their training for the Beaver Scout Membership Badge and are ready to be invested as a member of the Scout Association.
Please ensure all uniform is clearly labelled with your child’s name.
