​Who We Are
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.
​
Rosebud Sea Scouts uphold Scouts Australia's Scout Law and Scout Promise. ,in addition to which we have a Group Code
​
​Our mission in doing this 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.
Here's a video of one activity that Rosebud Sea Scouts' Cub Pack completed - Paracord Bracelets.
Our Social Media

Rosebud Sea Scouts uses a number of social media platforms, to deliver information and services.

Code of Conduct
For everything we say or do, there's a simple two step test.
Is it kind?
Is it helpful?
If it can't pass both those tests - don't say it, don't do it!
