CUBS

[netnanny]

Does anyone know of a Cubs group in the area - I live in Forest Hill. The nearest I found online was in Beckenham - Don't really want to go that far.

There's one in Bellenden Rd, Peckham (SE15), one at St Stephens church up College Rd (SE21) & one in St Faith church hall, Redpost Hill (SE24). Those are only the one's I know of - there may be more.

Our boys....

...go to "WoodCraft" they tried Cubs but like my 9 year old said

"I don't need to sit there for 20 minutes being told how to behave, I get enough of that at school thanks "

It's a bit more....ermmm......left field "Commi-Cubs" my mate calls it, which about sums it up

They go on Thursdays in Gypsy hill, it's cheap & they love it

My son is 6 and our closest Beavers is St Michael's in Lower Sydenham, but I know of 2 Cubs closer to home - Grove Park (if that is right place on Jews Walk SE26 - Forest Hill end of Sydenham) and the one at St Stephen's next to Sydenham Hill station is supposed to be very good.

Hope that helps - my son loves it.

:( for your boys Woof'. My boys experience of cubs & scouts (St Faiths & Bellenden Rd) hasn't been at all like that. Much more raucus, lots of running around games at the beginning & the end, with a bit of badge work in the middle.

There's cubs at st silesius(?)ivydale road. the scouts have moved to rye hill residents hall opposite peckham park so maybe the cubs have too.

Yes, the Cubs and Beavers have moved to Rye Hill Tennants association hall - Beavers is 5 - 6.15 I think, Cubs definitely 6.30 - 8, both on a Monday. The leaders are great and they do loads of other activities at other times too.

Thank you for all the info.

Please..

..don't get me wrong I loved cubs as a child, just think we got a "less than exciting" group leader

Not a real worry ,we went else where

So all is well (tu)
