Scout Camp – Part Two
Our Scouts continue to have a fun-filled time on their summer camp, with knife skills, zip-wire, abseiling, archery, crate-stacking, and of course more food!

Great British Summertime
It was a wet end to the summer term, but that didn’t stop us from having a good time! Beavers had a trip to Dino Golf, and Scouts played in Canoes, kayaks and SUPs. We wish everyone a lovely summer holiday and look forward to seeing you all in September.

Tudor Trail
Scouts had a lovely evening ride along the Tudor Trail to Penshurst and back last night, completing the route in record time!
