GUIDING GROUPS - RAINBOWS / BROWNIES / GUIDESGUIDING IN AMERSHAM
We have Rainbows, Brownies, Guides and Senior Section groups in Amersham. Most of the groups go on pack holidays, camps, and International trips (Guides and Senior section). We have groups that meet on virtually every night of the week. The town is split into 2 districts- Amersham East and Amersham West. Rainbows
If your daughter is aged five or over, she has the opportunity to become a Rainbow Rainbows have fun! They take part in indoor and outdoor activities as part of their programme called the Rainbow Jigsaw. Their meetings are full of games and activities, which provide challenging opportunities for Rainbows to think for themselves, and take an active part in unit decision-making. Everything a Rainbow does helps her to develop – it’s an opportunity to look, learn, laugh and love. Brownies
Any girl aged seven or over can be a Brownie. The oldest Brownies are usually about 10 years old Brownies have fun! They take part in indoor and outdoor activities that challenge them to do their best! Their meetings are action-packed and full of challenges, games and activities, usually ones that the Brownies have suggested themselves. Everything a Brownie does is an adventure – it’s a world of excitement, new interests and friends. Guides
Any girl aged ten or over can be a Guide. Guides have fun! They take part in indoor and outdoor activities that challenge them to do their best! Guides choose and plan most of their own activities, which can include theme evenings, trips and all sorts of fun!
