Growing through every stage of the adventure

At 1st Parkstone, we offer a structured programme for young people aged 4 to 14, with each section designed to support their development at every stage. As members move through the group, they take on new challenges, build confidence and develop skills for life, all while having fun and making lasting friendships along the way.

Each section is led by a dedicated team of volunteers who tailor activities to suit the age group, balancing adventure, learning and teamwork in a safe and supportive environment.

A journey through Scouting

Our sections include:

• Squirrels (ages 4–6): a fun and engaging introduction for younger children, focusing on play, teamwork and trying new things
• Beavers (ages 6–8): where young people continue their journey through games, creativity and building confidence
• Cubs (ages 8–10½): developing teamwork, independence and new skills through exciting challenges and activities
• Scouts (ages 10½–14): building leadership, resilience and practical skills, with opportunities for bigger adventures and greater responsibility

No matter where your child starts, they’ll be supported every step of the way as they grow, learn and explore.
