Scouting is an approved type of character training and a preparation of good citizenship, designed for the benefit of boys and girls. It implies on attractive type of outdoor life coupled with activities which promote development of character, encourage formation of health habits, impart skills useful in everyday life and prepare the individual for service to society and fellow men. It is a kind of training which instills a sense of responsibility and trust worthiness, affords to the individual opportunities for developing initiative and leadership and promotes self-control, self-reliance and self-direction. Scouts and Guides classes started in St.John’s School in the year 1990, with 20 children. But now the strength has gone above 300. Cubs and Bulbuls classes are conducted every Friday and scouts and guides classes every Saturday.
