Kestrel Cub Scouts
Vision
Better Scouting for more young People
Mission
To contribute to the education of young people, through a value system based on the Scout Promise and Law and to help build a better world where people are self-fulfilled as individuals and play a constructive role in society.
Objectives
KCS officially started the Kheng Cheng Kestrel Cub Scout Unit in January
2016, marking a new chapter in the history of KCS.
Scouting inculcates sound values and life skills that will develop a person
holistically. In Scouting, there is great emphasis to duty and service.
We encourage our young Cub Scouts to do a good turn each day and through
service, keeping in mind the Scout Promise and Law.
We believe in providing our Cub Scouts with a quality programme through
a myriad of activities which are fruitful, productive and meaningful. We
aim to equip every Cub Scout to face the challenges of the future through
fun and action, Scouts are given many opportunities to lead, work in a
team and serve others.
Approach
The objective of the Cub Scout program is to provide a group environment
which is intellectually stimulating, physically vital and directed towards
satisfying the child’s basic need to face and overcome challenges.
The Cub Scout Program is undergrided by the Scouting Method. The Scouting
Method encourages the holistic physical, mental, spiritual and social development
with a strong emphasis on duty to country and helping other people. It
is based on a value system grounded on spiritual, social and personal principles
as expressed in the Promise and Law.
All members of the Scout Movement are required to adhere to a Scout Promise
and a Law reflecting, in language appropriate to the culture and civilization
of each National Scout Organization and approved by the World Organization,
the principles of Duty to God, Duty to others and Duty to self, and inspired
by the Promise and Law conceived by the Founder of the Scout Movement in
the following terms:
THE SCOUT PROMISE
On my Honour, I promise that I will do my best
To do my duty to God and to the Republic of Singapore

To keep the Scout Law
