Welcome to Darlington Scouts Western Australia.

For those of you who are new to scouting, scouting is a worldwide youth movement with nearly 40 million members. Scouts Australia provides young Aussies aged 5-25 with fun and challenging opportunities to grow through adventure.

Scouts Australia has around 66,000 members, making it the largest youth movement in the nation. No other organisation provides such a diverse range of activities for young people across such a wide range of ages. In WA we have 7,600 members.

Scouting helps young people to be their best, supporting them as they develop in all facets of life so they can grow into constructive citizens in their communities.

Learning Life skills, growing in self confidence and gaining valuable leadership and team skills are all part of the Scout program. Our leaders are highly trained and nationally accredited.

Today’s Scouts can take part in an extraordinary variety of outdoor activities, from ‘traditional Scouting skills’ such as camping and bush craft, through to more extreme challenges such as abseiling, overnight hiking, rafting, canoeing, canyoning, snow activities, rock climbing, sailing… even flying!

Scouts can get involved in performing arts, leadership development, community service, amateur radio operation, environmental projects, large-scale Australian events such as Cubilees, Jamborees and Ventures, international events, and service projects in developing countries. Scouts also learn valuable practical skills such as first aid and cooking… and fun skills, like how to build a ballista and fire wet sponges at their mates!

Darlington Scouts are fortunate to meet in a beautiful bush block setting at 615 Glen Road, Darlington.

There are five scouting sections, and these are categorised by age:

  • Joey Scouts (for ages 5-8)
  • Cub Scouts (for ages 8-11)
  • Scouts (for ages 11-14)
  • Venturer Scouts (for ages 14-18)
  • Rover Scouts (for ages 18-25)
