Term 3 begins

Brownie Link

Term 3 got off to a fabulous start with four new Guides linking up from Brownies. They will be part of our Senior-Junior Patrol until they learn more about the Guide programme and renew their promises later in the term. Our three Senior Guides at the moment are super helpful and friendly, so hopefully our new Guides will feel welcome.

Badges Badges Badges

We had a HUGE badge presentation with every single girl receiving a badge or certificate for all of their hard work throughout the year so far. 






Geocaching

MH is our resident geocaching expert (she's found nearly 1,000 caches around the world!) and she taught the girls what geocaching is all about and how to read and use her handheld GPS devices. In small groups, they went in search of a cache near our Guide hall - a great way to get out and about on the first night back.


WAGGGS World Game

This is a Game I made up. The logos for the five WAGGGS regions are placed around the hall (one on each wall, and one in the centre), and the leader calls out a country or a World Centre. The girls have to decide which region the country or World Centre belongs in, and run to that area of the hall (a bit like Captain's Coming). This is a fun way to learn a little geography and also for the girls to understand just how widespread Guiding is - 10 million members in 146 countries!
