We have had a very busy term at Guides. Take a look at some of the things we have done already, and the activities we are going to do this term.
- Knots and Flagpoles - we were so lucky to have Naomi and her dad come to Guides to teach us how to erect a flagpole from scratch. Our knotting skills are improving and we will be having another knots night later in the term.
- Fundraising - What a great effort by the girls at the Trolley Push fundraiser. The money raised will help to send those girls who came to Jamboree 2008.
- Scorpion Patrol - drama and high fashion was the tone of the night as the girls designed and created outfits using recycled clothes. Some of the clothes were a bit suspect... I wouldn't want them to be worn on the street! This was followed by lots of acting as groups of girls were given plays to act out. Very very funny!
- Promise Cermony - Abby and Aleisha made their Promise for the first time... Congratulations girls! Michaela and Emma re-made their Promise as they had joined us from Junior Guides. Beautifully done girls!
- BP Award - Laura and Bethany were the toast of Warragamba Guides as they achieved their BP Awards - the first girls to do so for a long time. They looked lovely at the ceremony at Abbotsleigh and did us very proud. Bravo Laura and Bethany!
- Outdoor cooking - we made a dinner for one in a tin can. Cutlets, carrots, potatoes, pumpkin and beans all cooked inside a tin can over an open fire. This was followed by yummy golden syrup dumplings.
- Movie Night - I just love watching Monty Python in my PJ's.
Coming up we have some exciting activities:
- A night at the Don Bosco Sport and Recreation Centre
- Bunnings BBQ fundraiser
- more knots
- tent training - come along and learn how to put up a bell tent, a patrol shelter and make gadgets.
- Air Activity Day at Camden Airport - Girl Guides take to the air!
Don't forget to leave a comment telling us what you have enjoyed this term. You may even have some suggestions for future activities.
