August Action is a chance for you to fundraise for things that are important to
you. The money we will raise will go to two places. Half of the money will go to a
Central Charity that all the Guides around Victoria will be fundraising for – in
2015 this charity is ROMAC. The other half of the money will go where ever
our Unit decides – start thinking……….

Request for Parent Roster (Junior / Gumnuts)

Gumnuts, Juniors, Parent Help, Program

Hi All,

Junior / Gumnuts Guides need a parent helper to organise parents for our program for Term 3. Parent help makes our night run smoother

Duties include: –

  • Establishing parents for roster
  • Be a parent contact if helpers need to swap nights
  • Ensure parents attend for duties
Girl Guides Victoria have a policy for Working With Children Check (WWC) & Police Checks. A female adult who volunteers on an occasional basis in an activity in which her child ordinarily participates is exempt from the Working with Children Check. However, this adult must not be unsupervised when working with other children. If you have a WWC (please present a copy to Tamara (Bickie) for our records) or we can arrange for a WWC to be done through Guides Victoria at no charge.
