About - 15th Bromley

15th Beavers. What's it all about?

The 15th Bromley Beaver Scout Colony is the entry point for scouting in Bickley. It provides fun, friendship and learning for 6-8 year old boys and girls.

Easily recognised by their distinctive turquoise sweatshirts, Beaver Scouts enjoy making friends, playing games, going on visits and helping others.

Beaver Scouting is about:

Having fun
Making friends
Keeping the Promise
Sharing
Making progress
Using a variety of groupings.

Beaver Scouts participate in a Balanced Programme over a period of time. The emphasis has shifted from a badge and award driven culture to one that ensures that all young people experience a quality programme covering a wide range of subjects.

To help, the Balanced Programme is divided into a number of Programme Zones, methods and underlying ways of working.

For more information on this please see www.scoutbase.org.uk

Beavers have the opportunity to complete challenges and gain badges. There are Membership and Joining In Badges to signify that a Beaver Scout has made their promise and has participated in the programme for a period of time.

The Challenge Badges and Activity Badges offer a variety of activities so that Beaver Scouts can develop personal interests and skills. The Challenges are optional and continue throughout the Sections providing continuity from 6 to 25.

There are 12 Activity badges specially designed for the Beaver Scout section, along with the six Staged badges.
