Juniors / Gumnuts – Term 2 Program (Parent Help Wanted)

Juniors / Gumnuts Parents & Guardians,

Here is the link to Term 2 2016 program. Click Here Full of challenges, events & badges!

Please have a look at the program & note where I have asked for Parent Help – it is essential that if you request to assist me at guides & you cannot attend for any reason, to let me know early enough OR arrange with another parent to help instead.

Our program can only be successful if parents assist. Without parent help, our program cannot be dynamic, interesting & full of challenges for the girls.

If you can help next week with the ANZAC Challenge, please contact me immediately as I have a little job to prepare before guides next week 🙂
