What Is Scouting?

Scouting is a worldwide movement that has shaped the development of youth and adults for more than 100 years. Scouts are in every part of our community, and Scouts is the biggest and most successful youth organisation in Australia. Thousand boys, girls, and adults in Australia from wide cultural or religious backgrounds or with an intellectual or physical disability enjoy an almost unlimited range of activities.
