There are lots of organisations in Australia that offer activities for young people, so why choose Scouts?<\/p>\n
Scouts Australia\u2019s prime focus is to enrich young people\u2019s lives, encouraging, mentoring and empowering them to do their best so they will enjoy a self-fulfilled and constructive future.<\/p>\n
Scouts Australia\u2019s age-related progressive program is unique \u2013 no other organisation offers such a diverse variety of activities and experiences across such a broad age-range. Children and young adults aged from 6 to 25 can join at any stage of Scouting and participate in a program that encourages them to grow through adventure by experiencing new challenges, making new friends, building confidence, taking responsibility for themselves, and being provided with opportunities to explore their own abilities and interests.<\/p>\n
Perhaps the most important thing, however, is that Scouts have fun!<\/p>\n
Scouting encourages young people to become well-rounded young adults who believe in their current abilities and future potential, who are well-equipped to face life\u2019s challenges, who are strong leaders as well as effective team players, and who can make a constructive contribution to the community in which they live.<\/p>\n
