The Scout Law - Our Values

The new Scout Law for SCOUTS New Zealand is launching at the start of Term 4, 2015.  This new law follows significant nationwide consultation, National Council approval in March 2015 and WOSM (the World Organisation of the Scout Movement) approval in July 2015.

The new Scout Law is a contemporary values model, comprised of three values. This will apply to all sections and replace the existing Cub and Scout Law. Keas will now have a Promise, Motto and a Law.

The new Scout Law expressed as Values is:

Te Reo Maori translation:

Te Ture Scout (Our Scout Law)

He whai whakaaro
Ki a koe, ki tangata kē atu
Ki te taiao

Kia tika
Kia ngākau pono  
Kia manawanui.

Kia ngākau pai
Tū whitia te hopo
Hei hoa ki te katoa
