Venturers

(Ages 15-17)

Venturer Scouts are young people dedicated to fun, adventure and serving the community. Our Venturers meet on Tuesday nights during school terms.

Venturers are:

• Discovering and exploring independence

• Broadening their perspectives

• Securing their interests and priorities in life

• Relying strongly on peer support

• Taking on more responsibilities

• Seeking purpose, challenge and risk

When you are dealing with your toughest years in school and making decisions about your future, Venturer Scouts offer vital breathing space. You can focus on friendship and personal growth, while picking up valuable life skills along the way. 

Venturer Scouts enjoy interstate, national and even international travel experiences. We take time out to work on mental and physical well-being. You can learn to fly, abseil down cliffs or climb mountains.  Camping steps up to a whole new level of adventure, with snow challenges, rafting, horse riding, shooting, flying, caving and scuba diving. It is all about healthy risk-taking, when so many young friends are making unhealthy choices.

Your achievement really steps up in Venturer Scouts and can earn vocational qualifications, recognized across Australia or you can use your Scouting experiences towards your VCE.

The Queen's Scout Award, the peak award for Venturer Scouts, is so highly respected that several universities will recognize it for entry purposes.
