The Scout Association, established over 100 years ago, is one of the Australia's largest Youth Organisation. Its fundamental Aim, which are still as relevant today as when first outlined, are to encourage and promote the physical, intellectual, emotional, social and spiritual development of young people.The Association achieves this Aim by progressive self-education programs, which focus on initiative, teamwork and cooperation, and community service and spirit. The development of leadership skills is a significant part of the Scout program, which ultimately helps today's youth become tomorrow's leaders.In Queensland, more than 10,000 young people aged between 6 - 26 years are actively involved in a wide range of Scouting activities - from the Scouting in Schools program through to Scouts of the Air for young people living on isolated properties in North-West Queensland.Over 3,500 adults and uniform Leaders voluntarily give up a substantial amount of their spare time as part of their commitment to developing young people as they progress through the program to become the community Leaders of the future. All adult members who apply to members of the Scout Movement undertake an extensive background history check and are required to be a holder of a blue card issued by the Commission for Children and Young People and Child Guardian.
