| Girl
Guides meet on Monady nights from September to June 8:00 - 9:30pm.
The girls ages range from 10-15 years. There is one guide guider,
two assistange guide guiders and one young leader in charge.
Each
night is opened with either a scripture reading or thought for today
and prayer. We then have a varied programme which includes games,
crafts, or working on one of the many go-for-its that have been
introduced in place of badges. These challenge the girls to look
at issues such as healthy eating, survival and environment. From
time to time we would ask people to come in and work with the girls
on different projects such as deaf awareness.
The
clear nights see us out and about in the forest or swimming pool.
Summer usually sees us at camp.
The
aim of guiding is to help the girls develop emotionally, mentally,
physically and spiritually so that they can make a positive contribution
to their community and the wider world.
