4th Newbury (St. Johns) Scout Troop is currently flourishing in Newbury. We have 30 regularly attending members on most Monday evenings. I'm afraid that does mean that at the moment we are unable to accept new members who are not already in our Cub Pack.

Meetings take place every week, during term-time, on a Monday evening, usually starting at 7.30pm and finishing at 9.15pm.

The Troop runs a varied programme with numerous different activities depending upon the time of year and weather. In the last 12 months we've hiked, climbed, sailed, canoed, abseiled, dry-stone-walled, rafted, camped, cooked, crafted as well as many other activities. We try to get out and about as much as possible during the lighter evenings and run a full and varied indoor programme during the long winter nights.

Every year, the Scout programme is geared towards preparing for our Summer Camp in August. In 2024 we enjoyed the sunshine at Blackwell Court.

Scout Mailing list Emails are regularly sent out to Scouts and parents regarding the Scout programme and activities, if you are not already subscribed to the mailing list you are missing out on important information. Please contact the Scout Leader Team to be added to the list.
