Joey Scouts Jump Together!
Joey Scouts jump into all sorts of fun and games together! Boys and Girls aged 6 and 7 years old can join Joey Scouts, and when they do there's lots to keep them occupied.

Joey Scouts meet once a week with up to 20 Joey Scouts forms a Joey Scout Mob under the supervision of trained Joey Scout Leaders and their helpers. Joey Scouts wear their own everyday or school clothing but have a special scarf to show they're a member of a Joey Scout Mob.

Joey Scouts are taught about sharing, about nature and about the world around them. Joey Scouts are given a sense of belonging and learn ways for creative expression. Most importantly, Joey Scouts are taught to jump in and help. The Joey Scout theme is:
'Help other people' (H.O.P.)

Jump Into Fun!
Joey Scouts can leap headlong into fun with programs of games, crafts and activities that allows them to learn, mix with other children, and have a good time.

There are games with handprints and footprints that teach Joey Scouts about themselves, there are active games that teach co-ordination and co-operation, and there are new things to try like clay work, collage making and painting.

Jump Into Adventure!
For a Joey Scout, life is an exciting adventure. At Joey Scout meetings we'll have exciting stories and adventures of our own. We'll even venture out on exciting trips to interesting places. Mums and Dads are welcome to venture out with us too and help us make new discoveries on our road to adventure!

Jump Into The Outdoors!
It's a big, fascinating world and Joey Scouts want to see more of it and learn more about it. We'll have special visitors who'll help Joey Scouts with nature knowledge and special displays and activities.

We'll also find out more about our namesakes - the Joeys and Kangaroos of Australia - and other types of wildlife too.

The First Jump
Joey Scouts is the first jump into the Scout Movement. Once a Joey Scout turns 8, he or she can move straight into the Cub Scouts, then the Scouts and later still into the Venturer Scouts and the Rover Sections.

Scouting is a world-wide organisation offering the opportunity for young people to discover the world beyond home and classroom, tapping the skills of others to learn, and passing that knowledge onto others.

Joey Scouts is a great way to take that first step towards a code of living that helps young people grow into capable, self-reliant individuals.

Jump To It!
There are a lot of other Joey Scouts out there waiting for you to jump in and join them!
