Scouting for 8–10½ year olds

Cubs take everything up a notch: camps under canvas, badge work, map reading, fire lighting and team challenges. It’s about trying things for the first time — and finding out you can do more than you thought.

Our two packs follow a programme packed with outdoor activities, trips and games, working towards challenge awards and, for some, the Chief Scout’s Silver Award — the highest award a Cub can earn.

What Cubs get up to

• Weekend camps and pack holidays
• Outdoor and survival skills
• Activity badges — from astronomy to cycling
• District competitions and events
