The Cub Scout Motto is Do Your Best

Cub Scouts learn through participating in activities and playing games both indoors and outdoors, and facing new challenges where the Patrol Leader and Assistant Patrol Leader teach the other members of their Patrol under the guidance of The Cub Scout Leaders.

Cub Scouts typically meet for one and a half hours each week during school terms.

They learn the benefits of working as a team "Their Patrol" about the community that they live in, through science, adventurous activities, overnight camps, and meeting with other Cub Scout Units.

Their achievements are recognised by the awarding of badges, which culminates in them reaching their peak award of The Grey Wolf Award.

Elements of leadership, respect and self discipline are introduced with active participation in opening and closing ceremonies.

A young girl or boy can join as a Cub Scout after they turn seven and a half.

A Cub Scout advances to Scouts through a "Going Up" ceremony, after they turn ten and a half and before their eleventh birthday.
