In view of the easing of travel restrictions, many Scout Groups and Areas will be organizing overseas trips for their members.
While we strongly encourage Scout groups’ engagement in such exchange programmes with overseas Scouts, organizers are reminded to follow the procedures as required by SSA and the Ministry of Education (MOE).
The guidelines and procedures are attached in Annex 1. MOE Guidelines can be found in the School Safety Handbook. This can be obtained from your School Admin Office.
Scout Units and individual leaders are to ensure that they have obtained headquarters approval prior to embarking on their trips.
Should you need assistance to link up with overseas Scout groups, please contact the International Department and we will be able to assist you to look for a suitable Scout group.
For further clarifications, please contact Mr Maohaid Faizal Kasmin, Senior Manager (International Relations) at 6259 2858 or email tofaizal@scout.org.sg
