About us
Scouts Victoria contributes to the education of young people, through a value system based on the Scout Promise and Law; to help build a better world, where people are self fulfilled as individuals and play a constructive role in society. We are a voluntary non-political educational movement for young people, and are open to all, regardless of gender, race, religion or sexuality. The aim of Scouting is to encourage the social, physical, intellectual, emotional, and spiritual development of young people so they may play a constructive role in society as responsible citizens and as members of their local and international communities. This aim is achieved through a strong and active program that inspires young people to do their best and to always be prepared. Scouting is found worldwide in 161 countries, with distinct age levels and programs that have shaped the development of youth and adults for more than 100 years. Scouts are in every part of our community, and are one of the largest youth organisations in Australia. More than 20,000 youth and adults in Victoria from wide cultural and religious backgrounds, including those with intellectual or physical disabilities, enjoy an unlimited range of activities in the bush, the sea, the sky, rivers, mountains, towns and cities.

Happy National Volunteer Week! This special week is an opportunity to highlight the important role of our volunteers and also invites people who are not currently volunteering to give it a go. We would like to express our gratitude to all our incredible volunteers who dedicate their time, energy, and passion to Scouts Victoria. We've even spoken to some of our members to hear what their passion for Scouting is and why they love what they do. Thank you again for all that you do, today and every day. Your passion and dedication truly make a difference in the lives of others. #beascout #scoutsvictoria #NVW2024 #SomethingForEveryone https://lnkd.in/ganNnfQ9

Exciting times at Aintree! Last Tuesday, Aintree Scout Group celebrated the grand opening of their new Scout Hall with Hon Brendan O'Connor MP. The Scouts lead the formalities and the Chief Commissioner thanked all the community for their efforts to get this Hall up and going. This fantastic new facility, strategically placed between two schools in the Woodlea Estate, is not just a Scout Hall but a community cornerstone for the growing area. Thanks to a generous $520,000 from the Commonwealth Government, Aintree Scout Group is now equipped to have many adventures.

On Tuesday, we had the honour of hosting Natalie Suleyman MP and Nina Taylor MP to turn the sod for the hall upgrades of Albert Park Scout Group. We have partnered with the Victorian Government for this upgrade project, which will not only benefit Scouts but also the wider local community. We cannot wait to welcome Albert Park Scout Group to their new building and see them enjoying the space! #scoutsvictoria #communitybuilding #victoriangovernment
