Unless stated otherwise, meeting times are 5.15 – 6.15pm. Please be considerate to our neighbours when arriving and leaving. To avoid congestion and for the safety of your children we recommend parking on Church Road and walking to Manor House Lane.
Squirrel Scouts should wear uniform to all meetings after they’ve made their Promise, unless told otherwise. Keep an eye on Facebook for last minute programme updates.
Subs are currently £42 per term.
Squirrel Scout Volunteer Team
Adult volunteers – Nicola, Julie, Sue and Leanne.
Parent rota – families are asked to provide an adult to support one meeting or event per term and can sign up via My.Scout. Please get in touch if you’d like to help more often – we’d love to have you on our team! See the ‘Join Us’ tab for more information.
Squirrel Scout news
New Squirrel Scout Drey opens in Astwood Bank!
In September 2024 we were thrilled to open a new Squirrel Scout section for children aged 4-5 years. We are only the second Squirrel Scout Drey in Redditch! We’ve had a brilliant term exploring the Great Outdoors, hunting for squirrels in Overdale Park, planting bulbs, toasting marshmallows, putting up tents and playing lots of games. We’ve earned lots of badges and even took part in Remembrance Day parade through Astwood Bank – a long walk for little legs! We are very proud of the Squirrels and adults who bravely made their Promises in October. Thank you to everyone who’s helped establish our new group, including Astwood Bank Community Group who donated funds to help us buy our flag and badges. We’ll looking forward to many more Squirrel Scout adventures in 2025!
