Pioneers are aged 9 - 12. If you're looking for activities for younger children, or older young people, you might find plenty of these are suitable, with a bit of adaptation to the needs of your group.
Our Times: campaign activities for Venturers
Our Times is the new campaign from young people around Woodcraft Folk, who want to give other young people a platform to be heard on social and political issues including war. The aim is to enable young people to educate each other on the issues they care about, and enable wider society to hear and respect young people's views.
We've put together a range of activities to get your Venturer group thinking about society and what they care about most in it. Download the PDF below.
