Scouts is for boys and girls aged 10.5 - 14.
150th has four Scout Groups:
Scouts enjoy loads of activities especially their time spent away... On top of a packed week-to-week programme, in recent times Scouts have had opportunities to enjoy:
Summer Camp is the highlight of the year for Scouts. Camping in a farmer's field, Scouts cook their own food on open fires, live in tents and take part in a wide range of activities such as windsurfing and fishing. The Leaders do their very best to keep the cost of Scouts as low as possible. Subs are paid quarterly. The current subscription rate is £34 per term. |
Programmes
You can see your cub pack's programme by loggin into Online Scout Manager (OSM). We email you initial log in details when your child first joins 150th. Uniform and Badges
Uniform can be bought from Scout and Guide Shop online - or at our local branch on Trippet Ln, Sheffield City Centre, S1 4EL (0114 270 1752). The scout uniform is a green shirt and emerald & yellow necker. Each Cub pack also has it's own t-shirt - ask your leader about these. Badges will be provided by leaders when they've been earned - so parents don't need to buy these. Click the image below to see where each badge or check the picture in the HQ main corridor,

Moving Up
Want to know when your child is moving up to the next section? Find out using the table here. Financial Hardship
We try to make scouting as affordable as possible. Hardship should not prevent a child from being a full part of our group. We have a fund to support families who are in hardship. Please speak to your section leader about this. |
Need camping or activity gear?
As well as the Scout Shop, both Towsure & Decathlon are a good bet: Tents
If you've ever wondered why we air tents after camps, click here to see one Scout Group's mess tent that had been put away damp! |
Kayaking
In Summer, we take Cubs and Scouts kayaking on the River Don.
To make sure that sessions are safe as well as fun, we take groups of around 8 youngsters.
We can't take everyone, so we invite youngsters to attend who have impressed due to their attitude, behaviour and conduct. Kids come who deserve it most!
It's great fun, from kayak dodgeball to descending the rapids with older Scouts.
If you can't make it for any reason, short time scales make it difficult to invite another youngster. In this situation, we take a smaller group.
We take the power of the water seriously. If the river water level is too high, we may postpone at short notice. This is for our children's safety and enjoyment.
