Beaver Terminology

​

Section – Scouting is made up of six Sections; Squirrels, Beavers, Cubs, Scouts, Explorers and Network.  A child/young person moves up the Sections as they get older and the activities and opportunities provide reflect that age range.  All Sections earn badges, take part in camps/sleepovers and outdoor activities.

​

Woggle – this is a device used to loosely secure the scarf around the neck.

 

Necker – this is the scarf that your child will wear when in uniform.

 

Lodges – when at their weekly meeting, your child may be split into smaller groups, to carry out activities and tasks together. These smaller groups are referred to as Lodges in Scouting.

​

The Beaver Scout Promise – each Section has a ‘Promise’ which is a simple way to help young people (and adults) keep the Fundamentals of Scouting in mind. The Promise is a commitment made by all Members as they join Scouting.
