Aged between 6 and 8 years? Live in or around Goldthorpe? Join Beavers - Apply Today!

Beaver Scouts are our youngest members, aged between 6 and 8 years. They meet weekly to take part in a wide range of activities including games, crafts, singing, visits and good turns, along with plenty of outdoor activities. They will also have the opportunity to take part in the fund and excitement of their first sleepovers in tents. This may be the first time they spend the night away from home so it's a real adventure for them.

If you know a boy or girl aged between 6 and 8 years that lives in or around Goldthorpe, Barnsley, why not let them experience being a Beaver Scout!

Applications for our brand new beaver colony are now being accepted, but we will only be recruiting 12 new members initially, so you need to act fast!

Cubs Visit Goldthorpe Library

Last week the cubs paid a visit to the local library in Goldthorpe as part of their Book Reader Activity Badge They had a great time as they learnt about the difference between Fiction and Non-Fiction. They discovered where to look in the library for a dictionary and how to use a thesaurus. They found out how the library catalogues their books so that you can find them easily and how you should care for your books so that they last a lifetime. The next stage in this badge is for the cubs to read 6 books. They should be able to name the authors and be able to tell the other cubs about the books they have read. Thanks very much to the staff at the library for showing our cubs the ropes!
