Summer 2025 session schedule

The Spring/Summer 2025 term for Squirrels, Beavers and Cubs plans to be more outdoor focused, with themes of community, exploration and nature. This means sessions will run at the same time as usual but from different locations for a better experience each week.

Please check below where your Squirrel, Beaver or Cub are expected to have their session for each week. This will not be emailed out each week unless there are any last minute changes, but this webpage will be available for you to check.
