Rosebud Sea Scouts

Rosebud Sea Scouts has a Joey scout mob (age range: 5-7), Cub scout pack (age range: 8-10), Scout troop (age range: 11-14) and Venturer unit (age range: 15-17).

Rosebud Sea Scouts started in the late 1940's, on the Rosebud foreshore near Boneo Road. We are proud of our Sea Scout heritage and we strive to keep our Sea Scout spirit alive. We take part in all activities, land and water based, that are available to us as a member group of Scouts Victoria.

Our mission is to create an atmosphere of team-work, support and encouragement, as part of the world Scouting movement.

Our Scout Hall SS Coleman was built with the proceeds of bottle drives between 1949 and its grand opening in 1951. The hall bears the name of one of the group's founding families - several generations of the Coleman family not only helped build the hall, but were a mainstay of our adult leader ranks over a number of decades. The Colemans still maintain a active connection with our group.

All members of Rosebud Sea Scouts are volunteers. All funds we raise go into hall maintenance, programme equipment (everything from balls to boats!) and supporting our members in their adventure and achievement pathways. Other than any grant funding that we seek, we are not funded by any government or corporate body. Which means that participation in our key fundraising activities is a necessity for youth members & their parents or guardians, as appropriate.

What We Offer - Sure, Rosebud Sea Scouts go camping, hiking, swimming, abseiling, cycling, sailing and canoeing. But we also hang out with our friends each week: having fun, playing games, working in a team and taking on new challenges.

Every week we give our youth members from 5 to 18 years old the skills they need for life.

For all the challenges they face. From school, to college or university, the job interview, the important speech, the tricky challenge and the big dreams: In Scouts, they prepare for adventure and prepare for life.

And our adult members benefit enormously from both their training and their interaction with our young people.

Everyone's welcome here. Whoever you are - there's a Scout adventure here waiting for you.
