2017 Visit from Japanese Girl Guides
We are currently seeking families to host girls from a unit of Japanese Girl Guides visiting Ballarat in 2017. Are you interested in this great experience?
Guides trying new things
Our Guides had a great time playing arcade games, billiards, pinball machines, air hockey, table tennis and karaoke.
Cardboard Classic Train Race
At the Ballarat Show, local Scouts and Girl Guides joined together to participate in the annual Cardboard Classic. They made their own trains and competed in an obstacle course.
Lest We Forget
Local Girl Guides have learnt about Remembrance Day at Ballarat’s iconic Arch of Victory. They learnt all about the Arch and the Avenue of Honour from Bruce Price, a relative of those involved in these projects.
Remembrance Day Poppies
Ballarat Girl Guides have helped the Sebastopol RSL to sell poppies and collect donations in the lead up to Remembrance Day. The RSL provide assistance to those affected by war – particularly widows, orphans, veterans and their families.
