51st Ipswich Scouts
Scouting exists to actively engage and support young people in their personal development, empowering them to make a positive contribution to society. We run an exciting program of events dictated by what our young people enjoy.
Tonight the Beavers done Disability Awareness - Learning sign language and had fun playing colour signing bingo and word search 🔍
The Beavers covered several topics this evening, Stranger Danger, Fire Drill, followed by Green Cross Code as outside and Semaphore.
The Beavers spent the weekend at Hallowtree Scout Campsite for a Pirate ☠️ themed Camp.![]()
They did natural collage, climbed the rigging, walked the plank, assault course, navigation, Knots, mini pioneering, Morse code, secret messages, map reading, made necklaces, various craft - swag bags and team games.
A fantastic camp for our Cub Scouts and leaders last weekend! 🏕️🔥![]()

A unique opportunity, not experienced by many these days, to get outdoors and camp under the stars.![]()

The Cubs spent the weekend exploring and playing in the woods, collecting wood for campfires, cooking, and learning to safely use tools such as axes, saws and knives to turn their own creative ideas into reality — building tables, teepees and flags ready for some brilliant Capture the Flag wide games in the woods.![]()

Camping is one of those activities that really resets the mind. It turns off the screens, slows the pace of day-to-day life and gives young people the freedom to explore, create, learn new skills and enjoy the outdoors.![]()

A proper Scouting weekend and plenty of memories made along the way. ⚜️![]()
