Beaver Scouts are young people aged 6 to 8 years old who...
- master new skills and try new things
- have fun and go on adventures
- make friends
- are curious about the world around them
- help others and make a difference, on their own doorstops and beyond
Every week, they gather in groups called Beaver Colonies to hop, skip and jump their way through lots of different games and activities – achieving anything they set their minds to, and having lots of fun along the way!
We have 2 Beaver Colonies:
- Deer Park Beaver Scout Colony - Meet on Monday's
- Riversdale Beaver Scout Colony - Meet on Wednesday's
These two colonies work together but may run separate activities/programs depending on what badge work needs to be completed by their young people. All trips and events will be open to all!
badges & awards
Awards
From your very first day at Beavers to your last day at Explorers, being a Scout is all about trying new things and steadily growing strong.
Start with your membership badge and climb all the way up. You can work towards as many as you like, at your own pace. And by the time you move on to Cubs, you'll have a whole host of achievements under your belt.
Are you ready? Let's get stuck in.

Care for care homes
Over the next few weeks we’re asking our young people to collectively carry out 10,000 acts of kindness to help residents in their local care home.
Young people could:
- create kindness rocks
- write letters / draw pictures
- video messages
- skills swap
