Who We Are

A scouting tradition spanning more than a century

We are one great family: linked like the rings of an unbreakable chain, learning by doing as in a master–apprentice tradition, disciplined as a soldier, democratic as a parliamentarian, a master key that opens every door, a dove of peace, standing beside the oppressed and against the oppressor — people of values, educated in the heart of nature.

  • We are a genuine non-formal, out-of-school education system.
  • We are founded on justice.
  • We are a transparent system.
  • We are a system in which anyone who joins, at any age, knows the road map they can follow for the rest of their life.
  • We learn through play and adventure.
  • We use technology very well and know how to live in nature very well.
  • We act in the right place at the right time.
  • A Scout is the best friend and companion anyone would want by their side.

Why Scouting

A Scout prepares to become “the best person” they can be.

Scouting is a school of life that teaches through play, adventure and learning by doing, with leaders serving as role models.

Nature and Discovery

Camps, outdoor activities and a life spent discovering oneself and the world around.

Leadership

Scouting is the art of leaving a trail. Scouts first follow the trail, then become leaders and leave their own mark on the world.

Team Spirit, Personal Growth

Living both systems at once, Scouts develop themselves while leading those around them.

Unity

Being one, acting as a single body, the friendly rivalry of becoming the best person, and honesty are hallmarks of scouting.

Our Facilities

Our camp centres

Modern camp grounds in the heart of nature, true to the spirit of scouting.
