Welcome to 1st Mornington Scout Group!

Are You prepared for new adventures?
Scouting is a rewarding and welcoming experience, regardless of your age, gender, or any previous experience in the global Scouting movement.
School age children can join a local group and enjoy a journey of up to 20 years through the different sections, which each have their own age-appropriate activities and colour-coded uniforms. Or first-timers can join at any point along the way.
Leaders help young members through their transition up to the next section, taking into account the child’s development and maturity for the move. We want the members to be excited about stepping up and ready to take on the next challenge.
Enthusiastic Adult Leaders are always welcome too. No previous Scouting experience is needed.

Towards the end of his life, Robert Baden-Powell, the founder of Scouts, summed up the Aim of Scouting in these words:
“Let us, therefore, in training our Scouts, keep the higher aims in mind and not let ourselves become too absorbed in the steps. Don’t let the technical outweigh the moral. Backwoodsman-ship, camping, hiking and jamborees are the means, not the end. The end is character – character with a purpose. And the purpose, that the next generation be sane in an insane world and develop the higher realisation of service, the active service of love and duty to [our spiritual beliefs] and our neighbour.”

Scouts: Prepare for Adventure, Prepare for Life.
