Being a Squirrel
3rd Wombourne Squirrel Scouts is the youngest section in Scouts and is for are boys and girls aged 4 and 5 years. Squirrels have lots of fun doing different things, including playing games, crafts and going on visits
We currently meet on Monday nights in Wombourne starting at 5:15pm.
Activities and what you’ll get up to
Build and develop your confidence, sense of adventure and outdoor skills. Explore you beliefs and attitudes and be creative. Gain independence and put these skills into practice at camps and days out.
Badges and Awards
Completing awards challenges you to do more, learn more and be more. See what’s on offer and start your journey to the top.
Uniform and badge placement
You don’t need a uniform to join. But once you’ve settled in, you’ll start speedily earning badges, and you’ll need somewhere to put them!
As a group we are proud of the uniform we wear and encourage all Scouts to wear their uniform shirt every week.
A neckerchief is provided free of charge upon investiture.
Squirrel leaders
All of our leaders are trained volunteers, working to make sure Scouting is safe, inclusive and accessible. Some lead the Drey week in and week out. Others visit occasionally to help run a session or drop in to share their skills.
If you would like to join our fantastic group of leaders, and volunteer flexibly to suit your circumstances, find out more on the link below.
Moving up to Beavers
Eventually, it’ll be time to say farewell to Squirrels and embrace your next big adventure.
From 6 years old we guarantee an automatic space to move up to our Beaver Scout section which meets in the same building on a Monday night, immediately following Squirrels.
