Cubs focus on exploring the outdoors, discovery and learning interesting things! You’ll get to go on camps and might attend a Cuboree camp with hundreds of other Cubs! As well as learning things like how to use a compass, you’ll go on bushwalks, bike trips, and have the chance to do activities such as sailing, canoeing and abseiling. 

Making new friends and building social skills are very important for Cubs. For some, belonging to Cubs provides an opportunity to mix with a new group of people, developing their confidence and ability to make new friends. Cub families are welcome to get involved too! There’s lots of opportunities for the whole family to make new friends and feel part of the Scouting community.

Scouts focus on developing their confidence and learning how to work as part of a team. We learn essential outdoor safety skills as well as participate in a variety of physical and intellectual challenges.

The programs are designed to target and develop each young person’s own special interests and hobbies. From bushwalks and camping expeditions to getting out on the water in a kayak, there is something for everyone. As a Scout, you get to choose what you want to do, and your Leaders are there to provide guidance and support.

Venturers is a do-it-yourself mix of fun, adventure and personal challenge that brings together like-minded young people aged 14 to 18 from all walks of life. When you’re dealing with your toughest years in school and making decisions about your future, Venturers offers vital breathing space. You can focus on friendship and personal growth, while picking up valuable life skills along the way.

As a Venturer, you may find yourself exploring wilderness Australia, camping above the snowline or diving on coral reefs. You could be abseiling into a limestone cave or climbing a sheer rock face. Perhaps you’ll learn white water kayaking or ride your mountain bike on an expedition across real mountains.

Whatever your challenge, there will be trained and highly experienced adults to guide you through the experience, to teach you the necessary skills and safety techniques. Venturers get the opportunity to travel overseas and to organised activities, to live with a different community and to provide service to others.

Rovers are self-managing and plan and run all their own activities – which are tailored to the requirements and interests of members. Rovers enjoy helping others, having a great time and taking on new challenges. Social activities such as balls, bush dances, harbour cruises, nights out, car rallies and “Moots” (gatherings of Rovers on a local, national and sometimes international level) will feature on an active Rover program. 

Action is at the core of all Rover activities. And it’s your choice what you do whether it’s kayaking, canyoning, hiking, camping in the snow or even planning an international expedition. There are heaps of international travel experiences for Rovers to become involved in, with contingents leaving Australia every year to Scouting events across the globe, in addition to the individual travel opportunities that are also available.
