10.5-14 years

Jump in and get muddy. Give back and get set. Scouts ignore the butterflies and go for it, and soon so will you.

Scouts are a go-getting group of young people aged 10 ½ to 14 who: 
 

  • Master new skills and try new things

  • Make new friends

  • Have fun and go on adventures, at home and abroad

  • Explore the world around them

  • Help others and make a difference, in their own communities and beyond


Week in and week out, they gather in groups called Scout Troops to conquer the small task of changing the world.

Meetings

We have two Scout troops at 1st Twyford:

Monday Scouts – meet at Scout Hut or at a location the leaders will let you know about in advance, in term-time on Mondays 19:45 – 21:15
 

Tuesday Scouts – meet at Scout Hut or at a location the leaders will let you know about in advance, in term-time on Mondays 19:45 – 21:15

All details of next weeks activities and location can be found on your OSM programme.

To access your Online Scout Manager (OSM) account, you need to log in at Online Scout Manager.


 

We as Leaders encourage proactive and self-reliant life skills so we would like Scouts (rather than you) to check what they were doing this week. Scouts will need limited access to Parent Portal so they are able to see the programme (but not be able to sign up / pay for events, etc.).
 

If you are happy to do so (the Parent Portal environment is fully locked down in accordance with GDPR data security), please add your Scout's email address to the Personal Details -> Member section in the Parent Portal. We can then grant them access to the Programme section of the Parent Portal.

PLEASE DO NOT ADD YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS AS THIS WILL RESULT IN YOUR ACCOUNT BEING RESTRICTED TO THAT OF AN UNDER 18 AND YOU WILL LOSE FUNCTIONALITY OF YOUR ADULT ACCOUNT.

Get involved...

We're always looking for new Scout leaders, fundraising volunteers, committee members and occasional helpers. Whether you've got a little or a lot of time to spare, we need your help! 

Joining Scouts

We welcome applications for entry into the Scouts section if your child is currently 10 ½ years or older. Scouts can join our section in the term in which they turn 10 ½.

All applications for places at Scouts should be made through our OSM platform.

We regularly review applications and will contact when we are able to offer your child a place.

Scouts uniform

You don't need a uniform to join. But once you've settled in, you'll start speedily earning badges, and you'll need to know where to put them!
