Scouting and Guiding in New Caledonia

Scouts de Nouvelle Caledonie

Scouting is active in New Caledonia. The Scouts et Guides de France is the largest Scout Association on the island. Scouts Vaillants is a smaller association.

Scouts from New Caledonia participated in the 1998 World Jamboree in Chile, in the 2013 and 2016 Australian Jamborees, and in the New Zealand Jamboree in 2023.

A branch of marine scouting exists with the Notre-Dame de Lourdes group. This is the only overseas marine group in French scouting.

The Scout Motto is Sois Prêt (Be Prepared) or Toujours Prêt (Always Prepared) in French, depending on the organization.
