Try new things. Make new friends. Joining Beavers is just the beginning of your big adventure.
Beavers are young people, aged 6 to 8, who:
- Master new skills and try new things
- Have fun and go on adventures
- Make friends
- Are curious about the world around them
- Help others and make a difference, on their own doorsteps and beyond
Every week, they gather in groups called Beaver Colonies to hop, skip and jump their way through lots of different games and activities – achieving anything they set their minds to, and having lots of fun along the way.
Our Beavers section is run by a team of volunteers: Christine, Andrea, Tom, Alison, Nadia and Laura. Sessions run on on a Thursday evening, 5.30pm - 6.30pm.
Activities include games outdoors, glowstick discos, Nerf Wars, crafts and badge work. We have had visits from a community bee keeper and Tynemouth Volunteer Life Brigade.
The Beavers have also been to the fair for a treat, to Group camps at Pigdon, joined our District Camp and often have Group sleepovers.
