Challenge yourself
Guides
Hampsthwaite Guides meet every Tuesday (termtime). Girls can join us from the age of 10 years old.
At Guides we try to make it fun and interesting. We learn whilst having fun. We do many challenges and activities and also go away on a Guide Camp every so often.
It is a really fun night for girls to be girls (without the distraction of boys!) and learn lots of new skills whilst making new friends.
Guides is all about being independent and a lot of the time the girls get to decide what they would like to do in Guides.
What do Guides do?
Guide activities range from crafts, games, learning activities, challenges and trips away. We are currently doing our Royal Wedding Badge. This involves learning all about the Royal Family whilst having fun.
Trips out
We do have a number of trips out. One is our annual trip to the Pantomime at Harrogate Theatre. We are also going to be learning stable management and riding at Follifoot Riding Stables in the near future. A Guide Camp is also on the agenda.
Shows
Every year we do a fantastic show involving all our Brownies and Guides. Every girl is given a role and this gives them so much confidence rehearsing on our big stage ready for the big day when we invite family, friends and villagers to come watch.
Last year we did a Lollywood Show (Lollywood is the Pakistan version of Indian Bollywood). We had a professional Lollywood dancer who came to teach us the moves. As well as including the girls dancing, we had professional belly dancers, Asian Drummers and Lollywood dancers. The show was a huge success and raised over £600 for the Pakistan Flood Victims.
