JOEYS SECTION
The first section for Scouts Australia for boys and girls aged 5 to 7.
This section allows young children to interact with new people and learn many arts and crafts skills that teach patience and personal expression. It also teaches them important life qualities such as simple cooking skills, cleaning, creating and sharing.
Badges earned in this section allow them to achieve the Promise Challenge Award. There is one major camp for Joeys called Kangaree. It runs for one night every two years for Joeys across all of Victoria providing them the chance to meet new friends, experience nights under canvas tents away from home and participate in lots of fun outdoor activities!
Watsonia Scout Group will be launching Joey Scouts in Term 2, 2025 on Tuesday evenings. In the lead up to Term 2, 2025 we will be running some Joey Scout workshops for potential Joeys to try out a few sessions before our official launch date. Please email our group leader to express your interest in our upcoming Joey Scout workshops so you don’t miss out on all the fun: gl.watsonia@scoutsvictoria.com.au
