Adults in Scouting

Leaders 

 

The most successful Scout Groups are those where there is strong adult support. Scouts volunteers are enthusiastic and dedicated women and men from all walks of life who share a love of adventure and a desire to enrich young people’s lives.

​

We are in need of new Leaders for all sections of the Group, to allow our Group to continue to grow. If you are a parent, family member, or member of the wider community, consider becoming a uniformed Leader of Scouts. Those who were youth members in the past might consider putting the uniform back and being involved once again in the fun and fulfilling role of leading youth.

​

Leaders need to be motivated individuals with a commitment to providing varied, exciting and dynamic programs for their Scout Group. Scouts Australia helps Leaders deliver on that commitment by providing training and support in all aspects of Scouting, youth leadership, programming and safety.

​

Normally, Leaders need to commit to Group meetings one night per week during school term, a monthly Group Council meeting, and a few weekends a year for outdoor activities such as hiking and camping trips.

​

Scout Leaders come from all walks of life, from parents of Scouts, to childhood Scouts, to people with no Scouting experience at all!
