Welcome to the Howrah Scout Group web page

How would you like to join the world's largest youth organisation - SCOUTS!

By enrolling your child in Scouts you are giving them the opportunity for a fun educational experience above and beyond what the school system offers. In this respect Scouting is often referred to as non-formal education. Scouting, which has been in existence since 1907, and in Australia since 1908, has the aim of developing young people physically, intellectually, spiritually, emotionally and socially. Scouting emphasises nature, adventure, citizenship, leadership and of course having fun.

The Howrah Scout Group has three scouting sections.  Joey Scouts are our youngest members and are aged from 6 to 7½ years of age. Cub Scouts are aged from 8 to 11½ years.  Scouts are from 10 to 14½ and Venturers are aged from 14 to 17½ years of age.  It doesn't end there because you can continue your Scouting with Rovers who are aged 17 to 26 years of age as well as being a Scout Leader.
