Australian Scout Promise and Law Resources Out Now
Resources are now available to support the implementation of the Australian Scout Promise and Law for your Section.
Since the adoption of the new Australian Scout Promise and Law in July 2017, Scouts from around the country have been exploring their understanding of the Promise and Law’s application in their life. It’s been exciting to see many Scouts making or reaffirming their Promise that incorporates the needs and thoughts of the next generation of Australians. While at the same time, a new Australian Scout Law has provided opportunity for members to review and apply the concepts of “Be Respectful, Do What is Right and Believe in Myself.”
To assist with the understanding and implementation, Scouts Australia are excited to release a series of resources for Scouts and their adult supporters. We’ve developed a suite of resources that help to facilitate discussion; understanding the new Internal Compass spiritual development tool, and programming ideas incorporating the adaptations. There’s also an extensive Frequently Asked Questions that’ll help to answer any questions you or your section may have.
Your Group will also receive a large poster version of the updates to place in the Scout Hall. Additional posters will be available to purchase from the Scout Shop in the near future.

Prior to the adoption of the new Promise and Law, the Youth Program Review’s intergenerational teams undertook significant research and discussion with our members and community on the use, meaning, and importance of this fundamental aspect of Scouting.
From the exploration of this topic, the Youth Program Review are pleased to release “Recommendation Report: Australian Scout Promise and Law.” Take a read here.
