✨ Katoomba Girl Guides | Building confidence, friendships & leadership through adventure, camping, challenges & community. We’d love to welcome you! 💜

Tuesdays 4:30pm at Katoomba Guide Hall. 🌿💙 At Katoomba Girl Guides, we empower girls aged 5–17 to build confidence, leadership, and lifelong friendships in a safe, supportive space. 🌸✨

Each week, our Guides take part in fun activities, outdoor adventures, community service, and camps — developing skills for life while making great memories. 🌿🌏

“But I won't know anyone.”

We understand. 💙

Walking into a new group can feel enormous when you're 10, 11, 12, 13 or 14.

The lovely thing about a small Guide unit is that it doesn't take very long before you DO know everyone.

You don't need to bring a friend to Katoomba Guides.

You might just find one here.

Come along for two free trial nights and see how it feels.

⚡ FUN THEMED CAMPS? OBVIOUSLY. ⚡

What happens when you give imaginative Guide Leaders a campsite and a theme?

Excellent things.

Because learning doesn't have to FEEL like learning.

Girls can practise teamwork, independence, responsibility, problem solving and traditional camp skills while completely immersed in an adventure.

That's something our Leaders do brilliantly.

Take the purpose behind traditional Guiding.

Add imagination.

Repackage for 2026.

Then let the girls have an absolute ball.

This one's for the parents of the wonderfully quirky girls. 💙

The intense girls.

The shy girls.

The girls with BIG interests.

The girls who talk a mile a minute.

The girls who hang back and watch.

The girls who haven't quite found their friendship group.

The girls who sometimes feel like square pegs in round holes.

We rather like square pegs at Katoomba Guides.

Nobody needs to become the same to belong here.

Katoomba Guides isn't just a group that happens to meet in Katoomba.

We're part of Katoomba.

We want our girls to know their community, participate in it and understand that they can contribute to it.

Because Guiding has always been about more than what happens inside the Guide Hall.

Service.

Kindness.

Responsibility.

Community.

Those traditions haven't become old fashioned.

We think they're more important than ever.

“So what do you actually DO at Katoomba Guides?”

That's surprisingly difficult to answer.

Because we don't do just one thing.

🔥 Campfires
⚡ Themed camps
🍳 Cooking
💄 Makeup
🥋 Self-defence
🏕️ Camping
🎨 Creative projects
🧭 Guide skills
🥳 Parties
🤝 Community activities
🏅 Badges
😂 Lots of laughing

If your daughter gets bored doing the same activity every week, that might be exactly why she'll love Guides.

14/09/2026

Some girls sit still and listen.

Some listen while moving.

Some need to know exactly what's happening next.

Some ask seventeen questions.

Some jump straight in.

Some prefer to watch before they join.

All are welcome.

Katoomba Guides is ADHD and autism friendly, with a small group and wonderful Leaders who get to know the individual girls.

We're not a specialist service.

We're simply a Guide unit that understands there isn't one right way to be a girl.

Or a Guide. 💙

10/09/2026

We have something at Katoomba Guides that we're particularly proud of.

Amazing Leaders. 💙

Creative. Imaginative. Caring. Funny. Inclusive.

They don't simply ask:

“What activity should we do this week?”

They ask:

“What is something you would love to do?”

They know that different girls engage differently.

They know when to encourage, when to help, when to adapt and when to stand back and let a girl discover that she can do it herself.

That's what brings Katoomba Guides to life.

09/09/2026

Can a girl love adventures AND animals?

Obviously.

Harry Potter and hiking?

Absolutely.

Cooking and camping?

Why not?

Parties and community service?

Of course.

Girls don't fit into one little box.

Neither does Katoomba Guides.

We give our girls LOTS of different experiences because the point isn't deciding what a girl should be interested in.

It's giving her enough opportunities to discover what she actually loves.

07/09/2026

Between 10 and 14, friendship can feel like EVERYTHING.

And when friendships at school aren't going well, it can feel as though there's nowhere else to go.

But school doesn't have to be her whole social world.

Guides gives girls another circle.

Different schools.

Different ages.

Different personalities.

A fresh start.

Another opportunity to find a friend.

Another place to belong.

For some girls, that second circle can make an enormous difference. 💙

03/09/2026

We are SMALL BUT MIGHTY. 💙

And being a small Guide unit has some pretty wonderful advantages.

Our Leaders know the girls.

We know who's bursting to take charge.

Who needs some encouragement.

Who needs five minutes before joining in.

Who has a brilliant idea.

Who needs a friend.

And who is about to ask Krystal a question for approximately the 47th time that afternoon. 😂

Girls don't disappear into the crowd here.

They're known.

And we think that matters.
