Embracing a New Era of Scouting
In 2012 a group of - interested parents began the process of engaging with NSW Scouts to reconstitute a unit within 1st Alexandria Scouts. The parents were inspired by other examples of local community activism, such as Erskineville P&C. Some also had cubs and scouts at other locations and were motivated to access a Scout Hall closer to home. The hall subsequently held its first open day in the hall on 8 November, 2015, in preparation for the unit’s reopening in February 2016. Having been closed for 14 years it was like opening a time capsule. Lots of old school equipment, badges, trophies etc. We are excited to reopen this community asset, which in the past has hosted 21st parties and weddings and continues to host a variety of activities, including martial arts, dance school, puppy school, and days when the local florist is overflowing and needs extra space.
Volunteering in to be a Helper of Adult Leader
We are always interested in talking to Rovers, parents, and community members who want to get involved in Scouting.
Our Adult Helper and Leader program is specifically designed to support Adult Helper and Leaders through their journey to becoming leaders.

As well as the benefit of a local hall the scouting community can also access other scouting assets such as Coutts Camp at Waterfall which become a bush home away from home for inner city kids.
On Tuesday the 9 February 2016 the 1st Alexandria Scouts hosted their first Scout meeting and on Wednesday 10 February the first Cub Scout meeting was held.
Upon its reopening, the 1st Alexandria Scouts scarf is an emerald green base with a ¼ inch purple and red strip off the edge of the scarf.
Today, the 1st Alexandria Scouts continue to thrive, with programs that reflect a balance of Scouting’s traditional focus on outdoor adventure and contemporary issues such as environmental stewardship, inclusivity, and social responsibility. The group remains dedicated to fostering the development of youth by instilling values of teamwork, resilience, and community service, building a legacy of leadership that continues to influence generations of Scouts in the Alexandria area and beyond.
The Cub Scouts, Scouts, Parents and Local Community acknowledge the tireless efforts of leaders and volunteers for your community advocacy in reestablishing the 1st Alexandria Scouts Group.
