Cubs

Cubs are young people aged 8 to 10½ who:

  • Master new skills and try new things
  • Have fun and go on adventures
  • Make friends
  • Are curious about the world around them
  • Help others and make a difference, in their own communities and beyond

Cubs meet in groups called Packs, with each Pack separated into Sixes

Stannington Cubs meet on a Monday from 6:45pm till 8pm.



What Do Cubs get up to?

Cub Scouts take part in camps, outdoor activities, sports and crafts. This section has a focus on adventure and exploring the world around them. Weekly meets are used to prepare for exciting experiences and nights away and ultimately the Chief Scouts Silver Award.



We give Cubs #SkillsForLife. Encouraging skills such as teamwork, problem-solving, communication and responsibility.


There is a monthly subs fee for attending section nights. This covers costs like rent, activities, insurance and more.



At the age of 10½ years, Cubs move up to the final section at 164th Stannington – Scouts!
