Badges


Core Badges

There are a number of core badges, obtained upon joining or moving on from the Colony, or for time spent in the Scouting movement. These include the Membership Award, Moving-on Award (Beaver Colony to Cub Pack) and Joining-In Awards.


Activity Badges

Many of the badges available are activity badges, which allow Beaver Scouts to show their progress in existing pursuits, but also to try all kinds of new things and form new interests. There are over 20 in total, so they can always find one that is of interest to them.


Challenge Awards

Gaining a challenge badge involves accomplishing a number of more ambitious tasks within the Colony or community. There are 6 challenge badges across a number of themes, from the physical and outdoorsy to challenges dealing with the local community or issues connected with the Scouting world.


Staged Activity Badges

The staged activity badges have been designed to provide a unified approach throughout the sections. There are 14 activity badges staged across the sections.


Chief Scout's Bronze Award

This is the highest award available in the Beaver Section, and is the badge all beavers are working to achieve by the end of their time as a beaver. You achieve it by gaining all 6 Challenge Awards, as well as 4 Activity or Staged Activity Badges.
