Uniformed Groups

The Scout Association - St Augustine’s Group:

The original Boy Scouts Association was founded by Lord Baden-Powell in England in 1908 and quickly grew into a world-wide organisation, which it remains to this day.

Here at St Augustine’s, the Scout Group is made up as follows, and all sections meet in the Scout Headquarters which is situated alongside the vicarage.

Beaver Scouts - Age 6 to 8 on Thursday evenings from 5.30 to 6.30pm
Cub Scouts - Age 8 to 10 on Thursday evenings from 6.30 to 8.00pm
Scouts - Age 10 to 15 on Friday evenings from 7.30 to 9.15pm

The Guiding Association - St Augustine’s Group:

Lord Baden-Powell founded the Guiding Association in 1910. Such was the enthusiasm for Guiding that It soon spread world-wide and since the early days countless millions have made the Guide promise. Today there are nearly nine million girls and women In Guiding in countries all over the world.

Here at St Augustine’s we are fortunate to have two Rainbow units (5 years old and over) and three Brownie units (7 years old and over).   Each unit meets weekly during term time and provides a balanced programme of activities giving the girls an opportunity to learn new skills working in a group and individually and of course to have lots of fun both In and out of doors.  There is also the chance to take part in organised events and outings and unit holidays.
