Sixty years of shaping young lives
Since 1964, Rangers Australia has mentored generations of young Australians — building Christlike character, outdoor skills and servant leadership that lasts a lifetime.
Our mission, our heart
Rangers Australia Incorporated is the national body for Royal Rangers in Australia — a church-based, Christ-centred mentoring ministry for young people aged 5 to 17.
Our mission is simple to say and lifelong to live: to evangelise, equip and empower the next generation of Christlike men and women, and lifelong servant leaders. We do it through small groups called outposts, led by trained, screened volunteer leaders in local churches across the country.
Everything a Ranger does — earning a badge, paddling a canoe, leading a patrol, praying with a mate — is designed to grow them spiritually, mentally, physically and socially.
The journey so far
Rangers Australia is established
Rangers Australia Incorporated is formally established, planting the Royal Rangers ministry on Australian soil and registering as a charity.
Outposts spread nationwide
Local church outposts multiply across Queensland, New South Wales, Victoria and beyond, bringing adventure-based mentoring to thousands of kids.
National camps and training grow
National Rendezvous camps, leadership academies and Ranger of the Year programs become fixtures of the Australian Rangers calendar.
A national movement
From our National Supply House in Bundamba, Queensland, we supply patches, uniforms and materials to local Ranger groups — and keep raising a generation that is ready for anything.
The National Supply House
Based at 12 Cullen St, Bundamba QLD, our Supply House is the heart of Rangers Australia's charitable work — supplying patches, badges, uniforms and merit materials to local Ranger groups across the country.

The four gold points
The Royal Rangers emblem carries four gold points — the four ways every Ranger grows. Everything we programme aims at these.
Spiritually
Growing a living faith in Jesus through Bible study, prayer, worship and the example of godly leaders.
Mentally
Stretching young minds through merit badges, problem-solving, and skills from first aid to navigation.
Physically
Building healthy, active bodies through camping, hiking, canoeing, sport and outdoor adventure.
Socially
Learning friendship, teamwork and leadership in small patrols where every young person belongs.
