Juniors, Tuesday 20th is last night for Term 2 for badges!
We will finish another challenge for the Environmental Guide Badge & have time for any other badges plus if any guide has a game they want to run in their patrols, we will have time allocated.
We have guest speakers organised by Mikalya arriving at 6:15 to talk with us about the book collection.

Congratulations Juniors on your badge work last night! I was inspired by your achievements to strive to be a girl guide! I ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ seeing guides learn how to treat a blood nose, learn about fire safety, learn to plait & find challenges to do at home! Your enthusiasm & dedication makes our unit awesome!
Many over 8 year olds could be working towards their action guide (at back of look wide book) or junior bp. Have a look & bring along next week.
Thank you again to Louise (Daisy & Belle’s mum) for being our badge supervisor. Without your help we couldn’t tick off 13 badges last night👍
So if you want some assistance bring your badge work along next week (last week this term for badges). Let’s help you to earn badges over school holidays.
Love ❤️ Bickie 😝
Niamh dropped all the goodies off to the Chelsea Community Breakfast people this morning! They were thrilled to receive the donations and very impressed with her effort. Abig thank you to those girls and families who donated and helped makes this challenge a success for Niamh.
Need some ideas for junior BP or badges? Here are a few events on in the area.
Badge / Games Night for Juniors & Gumnuts (gem challenges) plus junior BP work.
Bring along your ideas & challenges to work in at guides.
Those patrols still to organise games will run these on Tuesday

If you are 9 years & older (8 years can start too but must be ready for the challenge) – you might like to work towards your Junior Baden Powell Award – highest award in Junior Guides. Aim High books can be purchased at guides & together with the leaders we can assist you to achieve this award. See Bickie for more information. Term program will include dedicated session times for working on award.
If you are 11 years & older (10 years can start too but must be ready for the challenge) – you might like to work towards your Baden Powell Award – highest award in Senior Guides. Aim High books can be purchased at guides & together with the leaders we can assist you to achieve this award. See Willow for more information.
Thank you from all the Carrum Guide Leaders for your support & patience.
Tuesday night was great to see 6 new junior guides make their promise! Without the parent support & help, our night wouldn’t of been as successful (apart from the timing – my apologies, blame that heat!)
Without the help & support from our parents, we cannot deliver a dynamic program full of fun, badges, games, patrol system & girl driven. It is an important & fundamental part of our unit for both Juniors/Gumnuts & Seniors.
We encourage your daughter to read the “Look Wide Book” to see what badges they want to work on. If they want to work towards a badge, we encourage you to let us know before they work on the badge to make sure there is a “guiding flair” to the badge!
Did you know about our “Action Guide” Badge, it is in the back of the “Look Wide Book”. Each year, they work towards this badge – have a look & get us to mark your daughter off – you will be surprised that is she attends events & guide nights regularly, half of the badge might already been achieved by mid year!
Is your daughter 8 years old? If yes, maybe they might be interested on starting working towards their Junior BP Award?
Or if your daughter is 11 years old? If yes, maybe they might be interested on starting working towards their BP Award?
We will be having an information session next term on both the Junior BP & BP awards.
Yours In Guiding Bickie
