What We Do
Our Beavers at the 8th Eastleigh/1st Fair Oak will, over the course of two years, have the opportunity to gain most of the Challenge Badges as we create our programme from these activities. We also endeavour to cover many of the activity badges as well. However, some of them require some extra work to be completed at home.
Badges you might like to help your child with include: Animal Friend, Hobbies and Explore. Please look carefully at the badge requirements and if you have any questions please ask your section leader

Beaver Scout Activity Badges
Activity Badges are optional, but they provide an opportunity to reward a young person who has taken part in an activity over a period of time.
They should raise interest and extend a young person's skills throughout their time in Scouting. As of October 2006 many of the badges have been updated or modified in some way. Click here to view all the activity badges.

Staged Activity Badges
In addition to the above, there are six Activity Badges staged across these Sections.
The Staged Activity Badges have been designed to provide a unified approach throughout the Sections.
All the Staged Activity Badges have 5 stages, except Nights Away - which has 12 and Hikes Away, which has six. This means that a young person can gain whichever badge is appropriate to the level they have reached. It is possible, for example, for a Beaver Scout who is an excellent swimmer to gain a higher level badge than a Scout who has just taken up the activity.
