 Guides & Brownies

Although the Guide programme has been constantly adapted to meet the changing needs of the girls, the principles and aims of the original idea of Guiding remain unchanged. To connect to the UK Guiding organisation website click here
 

 

GUIDES, BROWNIES AND RAINBOWS IN GREENBANK

It's that time of year again when we are winding down for summer. Sadly, some leaders are winding down permanently which leaves plenty of places for you to fill.


Rainbow guides

This is the youngest section of the Girl Guide organisation. The girls can join at 5 and remain in rainbows until they enter Brownies at 7. At the moment 1st Clarkston Rainbows meet in the church Hall on Wednesday evening 6.00 - 7.00 pm during school term time, where they enjoy a variety of activities. There is, however, a waiting list and we accept names from the age of four.

Brownies

There are four Brownie packs within Greenbank and any girl between the ages of 7 and 10 is very welcome to come along. within each pack, songs are sung, games are played, things are made, visits undertaken and there are pack holidays and of course, lots more. after making their promise, the girls make an imaginary journey every year: footpath, roadwa; and highway. as they travel, they must learn new skills or improve on old ones. At the end of her highway journey, the Brownie will be ready to move to Guides.
