The Juniors Award Scheme

Juniors is for those aged between 8 and 11 years old.

The Juniors Programme is specifically designed to encourage a child to look beyond themselves. Many are interested in one type of activity - perhaps sports, or natural history. Our special programme provides such interest and at the same time gently urges them to try others of a different type.

This provides a balanced all round programme - which includes spiritual and social input, as well as physical and adventure activities in 5 different programme zones.
