The Scout Section is the senior section in the 43^rd EFS Scout Group, and is made up of boys aged 10½ to 14. 

The Scout Troop meets weekly under the guidance of a trained adult leadership team who run the Troop in conjunction with the Senior Scouts (the Patrol Leaders). The Troop is divided into smaller units – Patrols – of up to 8 Scouts led by a Patrol Leader and Assistant Patrol Leader.

Scouts are encouraged to take part in a wide range of activities as part of their balanced programme. Recent activities that we have taken part in include Climbing, Abseiling, Dragon Boating, Canoeing, Camping, Hiking, Shooting, SCUBA diving, Survival Skills and many more.

As Scouts progress through the section they will have many opportunities to gain Challenge Awards and Activity Badges including First Aid, Athletics, Climbing, Hiking to name but a few. Scouts are encouraged to take responsibility for themselves and each other. We run many activities, which aim to build upon core skills such as communication, teamwork and leadership.
