Scouting... an exciting life adventure

Challenging Life's Limits

The St. James Sea Scout Group has been present at the mouth of the Hutt River since 1945, and has been a very active group in sailing and rowing since that time. It uses and maintains boats made by members of the group over the last 50 years.

We offer an exciting and challenging programme for boys and girls aged 6 to 18 years.

While St. James is a Sea Scout Group and undertakes a lot of water-based activities, it also participates in all normal land-based activities provided by other Scout Groups.

The outdoors is a key part of our programme and presents us with unlimited opportunities for the development of life skills.

All parents and families are encouraged to join in the activities of the Group. Prior expereince in scouting is not required.
