What do Squirrels do?
Squirrels meetings are full of games, stories, crafts and activities, indoors and out. Children make friends, try new things, and earn their first badges, all at a pace that suits younger children.
Joining Squirrels
Squirrels places come from our waiting list, and only children under 4 can be added to it, so get your child’s name down early. When your child turns 4, we offer places in waiting-list order as they become free.

When they turn 6, Squirrels move up to Beavers.
