6th and 7th BurgessHill Guides enjoyed camping at Blackland Farm Outdoor Centre. Our Under the Sea themed camp had aquatic themed crafts, abseiling and crate challenge, den building, a slip'n'slide, glow stick wide game, torchlight trail and (because of the drought) fireless campfire.

7th and 11th Brownies had a merry Christmas holiday in the sun last week! Christmas came early to Bluewoods, with Christmas Eve, Christmas Day and Boxing Day. Some of the many things the Brownies did was make paper chains, decorate reindeer face biscuits and decorate and hang up Christmas stockings. We were visited by Elvie the Christmas elf who turned up in lots of surprising places, including the fridge. They also helped prepare and cook a Christmas roast lunch and make a South African Christmas pudding with our South African Rudolph (Sparkle Owl). No camp fire because of the fire risk but they did do canoeing and paddle boarding, perfect activities for a hot Christmas!

2nd Rainbows have been working on their LaSER Insects & Mini-beasts badge this half term, so the last meeting was a game of themed bingo & an insect version of 'hedgehogs'
At the end of the meeting we said goodbye to 7 Rainbows. We wish them well, and hope those who are joining Brownies next term have fun in their next section
Although we are proud of all our Rainbows achievements we we especially proud of Heather (our first Gold Award).
To celebrate the end of term Red Bow did her usual magic & made butterfly cakes for everyone & a special one to recognise Heather's award.

What a magical weekend 1st Brownies had at our Wizard Sleepover! Brownies enjoyed a fantastic weekend filled with enchanting activities.

We crafted dragon egg nests, mixed bubbling liquid potions, and made delicious edible wands before heading into the woods to create magical wands from sticks we found along the way.

We enjoyed a magical campfire, sang songs, and enjoyed tasty s’mores together.

A huge thank you to all our fantastic leaders and helpers who made the weekend so special, and well done to all our amazing Brownies for making happy memories together! 💛✨

Yesterday the 11th Brownies had a really good evening playing Golf. It was a great session we think they would all recommend it.

For the last two weeks 2nd Rainbows have been working on skills builders; 'Build a Team Machine' & Be Brave & thinking about being a part of a Team & how each member can help each other. Lots of fun was had at the first meeting working together to make 'robots' from recycled items & then the next meeting, deciding which was most difficult, acting, dancing or singing. All then helped each other to do short performances. To reward their bravery each decorated 2 'bug' biscuits to take home which contributed to their LaSER Insects & Mini Beasts Paw Print badge.
