Around three o’clock on Thursday we headed back to the
school to meet the Girl Guides. All the children appeared to still be in school when we
turned up even though the bell seemed to have already rung. When we finally
rounded up the Guides (all sixty of them!) and the teacher who is the leader,
we stared with some singing. We chose to sing Alive,
Alert, Awake, Enthusiastic, and This Little Guiding Light Of Mine. The leader
was extremely enthusiastic and made us sing the songs through many times until
the Guides had definitely learnt it.
Following on from this we made a 'promise tree' for their promise, which is very similar to our old one. We drew up a tree with five branches, one for each part of the promise. Each of the Guides had to fill in the leaves with how they would keep that part.
Afterwards, we went outside and sang some more songs – Good Evening Friend Brownie, along with Taps. We finished off the session with the Guides singing their end of meeting song and national anthem. We also gave each of them a badge, which they really appreciated.
