Guides@Home - School Holiday Program

Looking for something to do during the School Holidays?

Love Guides so much that you can't wait for the school holidays to end? Problem solved! Join Possum, Leena and Koala for another round of virtual Guides@Home Unit Meetings in Cyberspace these school holidays.

The two sessions last holidays were so popular that these holidays we are running a session for each Guiding age-group, see below for dates and times.

Pre-junior Guides: Recycle & Reuse! Make Sock Puppets with girls from around NSW, the ACT and the NT and then sing a silly song!

Junior Guides: Swaps Swaps Swaps! Make something special out of nothing. Learn to make a swap you can share with your Unit or swap at camp.

Guides: Decorate your own space or make a gift for a special friend! Join in the meeting and weave a godseye for a mobile.
 
Senior Guides: Imagine Future You! Your future is your story. Make it your own. Program information will be emailed to you with plenty of time to Be Prepared for the meeting.
