The Principles
  • The Principles of Scouting as identified by the
    founder, Lord Baden-Powell, are that Scouts
    should serve God, act in consideration of the
    needs of others, and develop and use their
    abilities to the betterment of themselves, their
    families, and the community in which they live.

The Principles
  • The three Principles are represented by a code of
    conduct which characterises all members of the
    Movement, and are referred to as Duty to God,
    Duty to Others and Duty to Self.

    God as they progress through the Movement

    prayers for everyday Scouting occasions

    to attend religious instruction and observances
    as the sponsoring authority considers desirable

Mission Statement
  • The Mission of Scouting is to contribute to the
    education of young people, through a value system
    based on the Scout Promise and Law, to help build
    a better world where people are self-fulfilled as
    individuals and play a constructive role in
    society.

15
Mission Statement
  • This is achieved by
  • Involving them throughout their formative
    years in a non-formal educational process.
  • Using a specific method that makes each
    individual the principal agent in his or her
    development as a self-reliant, supportive,
    responsible and committed person.
  • Assisting them to establish a value system
    based upon spiritual, social and personal
    principles as expressed in the Promise and Law.
