‘The best thing we did was swim in the rain. I wasn’t even sure we were allowed to, but it was brilliant! I mean we were wet anyway, so I guess it didn’t matter too much about the weather.’
The Beaver Colony meet on Wednesday evenings.
If you have a potential Beaver Scout aged six to eight years old and would like to know more then please contact Cathy Challis on 07808 856545 or e-mail cathy.challis@suffolkscouts.org.uk.
Beaver Promise
I promise to do my best
To be kind and helpful
And to love God.
Beaver Law
There is no formal Beaver Scout Law. The concepts expressed in the Scout Law are to be presented to Beaver Scouts through games, storytelling and other informal activities.
Beaver Motto
Be Prepared
Beaver Scouts may wear a turquoise sweatshirt with a Group scarf (often called a necker) and a maroon woggle, or one of another colour which identifies their Lodge or team.
There is a range of badges and awards available to young people in the Beaver Section.
Activity badges
Many of the badges available are activity badges, which allow Scouts to show their progress in existing pursuits, but also to try all kinds of new things and form new interests.
Challenge awards
Gaining a challenge badge involves accomplishing a number of more ambitious tasks within the Troop or community. There are several challenge badges across a number of themes, from the physical and outdoorsy to challenges dealing with the local community or issues connected with the Scouting world.
