Overport Girl Guides

The girls enjoyed a range of activities this term at Overport Guides, including learning about guides, games, a dress up and bring a friend evening, and lots and lots of craft projects, which our group always enjoy. However, the activities that the girls loved the most were outside! Seeds which we had propagated were planted at Wallace Reserve one Sunday, which was enjoyed a lot by all who attended, and a night walk one evening was the clear highlight of the term. Waratah explained various star formations, and we managed to spot a ring tail possum and a tawny frogmouth, who patiently sat for quite a while. All of the girls admired his calm and dignified stance high on his branch.

Overport Girl Guides 

My name is Nikyla and I am 10 years old. I go to Overport Girl Guides. This term we have been doing lots of activities. We have made candles, ponchos for our teddies, and made scented and coloured bath bombs as Mother’s Day gifts.

My favourite thing I liked the most this term, was the biggest morning tea. There were so many fun activities, and we raised $60. Everybody brought a plate of food and it was really good.There was a raffle that you could enter, where you had to guess how many lollies were in the jar. My younger sister Karma guessed there were exactly 97, and she won. There was also a door prize raffle, and my mum won. It was a great night.

I really liked when we were able to have a sleepover at the Langwarrin Guide hall. We did lots of fun activities, had an indoor camp fire, and sang lots of songs. We made our own candles and decorated them with melted crayons. I made lots of new friends. It’s fun meeting other girl guides.
