Taroona Scout Group

🌏 We're proud to be part of a movement that inspires young people to explore, appreciate, and protect the natural world. Together, we're building a better future—one adventure at a time.

The outdoors is at the heart of Scouting — from hiking and paddling to camping under the stars, learning new skills, and exploring the natural world. 🌏

Through these adventures, young people develop a greater appreciation for the environment and gain a deeper understanding of their role in protecting it. Across Australia, Scout Groups are taking action through community clean-up events, tree planting projects, recycling programs, sustainable outdoor practices, and local conservation efforts that make a positive difference.

Scouts Australia remains committed to empowering young people to care for the environment and find innovative ways to protect our planet for generations to come.

Inspired by Nature. For Climate. For Our Future.

Today, we take a moment to honor and remember the brave men and women who fought for our country.

Each year, Scouts across Australia come together for ANZAC Day ceremonies, paying tribute to those who served. On this day, we reflect on their courage, resilience, and spirit of camaraderie, acknowledging the sacrifices made for the freedoms we enjoy.

Honoring the past, looking ahead.

Congratulations to Beth, Ellis and Jassie, who were recently presented with their Australian Scout Award at the Scout and Guide Regatta by the Chief Commissioner of Scouts Tasmania, Phil Harper. 👏⚜️

The Australian Scout Award is the highest award that can be earned in the Scout Section, and achieving it is a significant milestone in a Scout’s journey. It reflects many years of dedication, learning and personal growth.

This award recognises hard work, perseverance, teamwork, leadership — and of course, adventure. It is a truly outstanding personal achievement, and we are incredibly proud of Beth, Ellis and Jassie for reaching this goal.

Well done! 🎉
