Our age-appropriate programme is relevant to the needs of today's youth and it is carried out in an unpressuried atmosphere. The programme teaches girls leadership and responsibility in the context of fun and friendship. There is a strong emphasis on the outdoors and girls are encouraged to follow their own paths in terms of what activities and challenges they would like to do.
Through a variety of activities, girls are encouraged to:
-
Develop leadership skills
-
Develop a knowledge and understanding of spiritual values in their daily lives
-
Be involved in decision-making
-
Learn practical indoor and outdoor skills
-
Participate in the international aspects of Guiding

Be aware of and care for the needs of others
-
Appreciate and use environmental resources properly
