Happy #WorldThinkingDay to all our Guiding family here and around the world

[1st Littlecoates & 15th Gy Brownies @1stLittlecoates]

We decorated dolls in the appropriate colours to represent each section as a simple and enjoyable way to introduce our new girls to the Guiding family

[1st Littlecoates & 15th Gy Brownies @1stLittlecoates]

Tonight as Thinking Day is approaching we discussed how Guiding isnt just our unit but also includes other units in our district/division/county/region/country and of course globally.

So we've finished this term with a few Easter crafts. Bags the girls have coloured themselves, Easter bunnies made of socks filled with rice and of course some yummy chocolate nests with mini eggs.
We hope everyone enjoys their Easter break and we will see you all in a few weeks

On International Womens Day we think of the women in our lives past, present and future who have helped shaped who we are and who we will be #HappyInternationalWomensDay

Tonight we did some work about the history of Brownies. Talked about how it started, looked through some old hand and badge books to see how things have changed. Sooty Owl brought in her camp blanket with bages she's collected over the years #EveryoneLovesABadge #LeadersFeelOld
