Activity
Badges
Activity Badges are optional, but they provide an
opportunity to reward a young person who has taken part in an
activity over a period of time. They should raise interest and
extend a young person's skills throughout their time in
Scouting. There are Seventy Activity Badges in the Scout Section
In Addition to the Sections Activity Badges, there are four
Activity Badges staged across the Sections. These are:
Information Technology; Musician; Nights Away & Swimming. The
Staged Activity Badges have been designed to provide a seamless
approach throughout the Sections. Four each badge there are five
levels available. This means that a young person can gain
whichever badge is appropriate to the level they have reached.
It is possible, for example, for a Beaver Scout who is an
excellent Swimmer to gain a higher level badge than a Scout who
has just taken up the activity. |
