Welcome

We are the 1st Surbiton (Sealion) Sea Scout Group.

We are a Royal Navy Recognised Sea Scout Group and the largest Scout Group in Royal Kingston District.

We have three sections: Beavers (2 Colonies), Cubs (2 Packs) and an enormous Sea Scout Troop.

We are also lucky enough to be partnered with an Explorer Sea Scout Unit.

These sections are for different age groups that are designed to give maximum enjoyment – Beavers for 6-8 year olds, Cubs for 8-10, Scouts for 10-14 and Explorers up to 18 years.

Have a look around the site to find out about us and what we do. If you would like more information or want to join, you can find the form on the bar at the top. This site is expanding all the time – new articles and pictures on the Beavers, Cubs, Sea Scouts and Explorers.

Recent News

"Dolphin" Pack recently had a fantastic pack holiday at Farnborough. Although they did the sort of activities you'd expect at a pack holiday - wide games, cricket, bingo, a camp fire, etc, the main theme was the Air Activities badge, and for part of the badge , they visited the Farnborough Air Science Trust (FAST) museum where the staff who showed them around were all brilliant. The Cubs got to sit in a static Harrier jump jet (the thought of some of them at the controls of a near supersonic jet is a little disconcerting...), they tried out FAST's highly realistic flight simulators, and learnt all about the history of flight and its connection with Farnborough. We watched the airport operations from the back of the site and looked up where all the private jets leaving Farnborough airfield were going to. We were also very grateful to Joan and Mike Hughes and George Biddlecombe from Blackwater Valley Scout District who gave up their Sunday morning to instruct the Cubs in archery and air rifle shooting. A memorable weekend where we achieved a lot. ... See MoreSee Less
