1st Warnbro Sound Scout Group: CUBS
Cub Scouts are boys and girls aged between eight and eleven
years old. The objective of the Cub Scout program is to provide a group
environment which is intellectually stimulating, physically vital and directed
towards satisfying the childs basic need to face and overcome challenges. The
activities are based on the natural sense of fun and enthusiasm of the age group
and thus the training is achieved largely through games, interaction in small
groups and activities.
Cub Scouts form a Pack which is made up of smaller groups of six Cub Scouts called Sixes. Sixes
are led by a Sixer who is generally one of the older Cub Scouts and is appointed
by the Cub Scout Leader. The Sixer is liked and respected by others in the Six.
Cub Scout adult Leaders are known by names such as Baloo and Bagheera which are
derived from The Jungle Book by Rudyard Kipling. Recognising that children of Cub
Scout age have a lively imagination, the Cub Scout program uses The Jungle Book
as its theme. "The Jungle Book" provides excitement and action combined with the moral
code of Jungle Law. There is development from one skill to another, there is physical
fitness, love of nature, self-reliance, obedience, loyalty and courtesy. Therefore all
parts of Scouting philosophy can find illustration in the" Jungle Book".
