Welcome to Boy
Scouting!
 CHARACTER BUILDING
The Scout Oath
THE SCOUT OATH
On my honor, I will do my best;
To do my duty to God
and my country, the Republic of the
Philippines, and to obey the Scout Law,
To help other people at all times,
To keep myself physically strong,
mentally awake and morally straight.
ANG PANUNUMPA NG SCOUT
Sa ngalan ng aking dangal, ay
gagawin ko ang buong
makakaya;
Upang tumupad sa aking tungkulin,
sa Diyos at sa aking Bayan, ang
Republika ng Pilipinas at sumunod sa
Batas ng Scout;
Tumulong sa ibang tao sa lahat ng pagkakataon;
Pamalagiing malakas ang aking
katawan, gising ang isipan at
marangal ang asal.
The Scout Oath enumerates three
outstanding duties of every Scout. They
are:
a) Duty to God and Country;
b) Duty to Others; and
c) Duty to Self.
The Scout Law

Mapagkakatiwalaan; Trustworthy;
Matapat; Loyal;
Matulungin; Helpful;
Mapagkaibigan; Friendly;
Magalang; Courteous;
Mabait; Kind;
Masunurin; Obedient;

The Scout Motto

The Scout motto is “LAGING HANDA” – it means that the main purpose of the
training of a Boy Scout is to be always ready for service. He willingly offers the knowledge
and skills he learns in Scouting to his country and his fellowmen.
In your Scout life, you will take certain tests in order to qualify for certain ranks, and
thus earn the distinction and privilege to wear the badges of those ranks you have earned.
There is, of course, little need to remind you about it. We just want to make it a matter of
record that an Eagle Scout is better PREPARED for service than a First Class Scout, and that
a Tenderfoot is inferior to a Second Class Scout in preparedness. Therefore, look upon
these test requirements as a scheme to make you better prepared and thus live true to
your motto, rather than mere steppingstones to beautifully embroidered badges.
The Scout Slogan

Besides the motto, The Scout has also a rallying cry or slogan.
It is “Do a good turn daily.” The Scout Slogan is a repetition and a reminder of
the second part of the Scout Oath and the third point of the Scout Law. It places before the
Scout the ideal of Service, to which he and his brothers in the Movement are committed. A
Good Turn is not just something you do for the sake of being courteous. When you offer
your seat to a lady, you are merely showing good manners. But when you go out of your
way in order to help an old man cross a busy street, you are doing a Good Turn.
The Scout Sign, Salute, and Handshake
The Scout Sign
 The Scout Salute

•How It Is Given. To give the Scout Salute, place the fingers of your right hand at the Scout sign
position. Bring the hand up smartly, palm very slightly sideways, with the forefinger touching the
right eye or, if you are bareheaded, the edge of your right eyebrow.
•It’s Meaning. Wherever and whenever the Salute is used, it means Respect and Courtesy.
•Its Uses. The Scout Salute is used to salute the Flag of the Philippines and when greeting, meeting,
or leaving Scout officials.
• Whenever you meet, address, greet, or leave any Scout official, salute him whether he is in
uniform or not.
• Whenever a Scout official enters or leaves a meeting AND IS RECOGNIZED by the one in charge of
the meeting, RISE and salute him whether he is in uniform or not.
•Correct observation of the regulations governing the use of the Scout Salute will help you live true to
the fifth point of the Scout Law – A Scout is Courteous.
THE BOY SCOUT UNIFORM
The Boy Scout Uniform, which
you are going to wear upon
registration and investiture as a
Scout is specifically authorized by
Commonwealth Act No. 111,
approved by the National Assembly
of the Philippines on October 31.
1936, as amended by Republic Act
No. 7278 and is protected by the
provisions of Section 7 of the same
Act.
