Girlguiding

Girlguiding at Christ Church.

This was first established over 40 years ago and is thriving!

A group of Rainbows, Brownies, and Guides use the Church premises and gardens for their weekly meetings.

Each unit is run by qualified leaders and the programme offered to the girls adheres to the policy of the Girlguiding Movement with the Promise Law at its centre.

86th Leicester Rainbows.

Rainbows are the youngest members of Girlguiding. Girls aged between 5 and 7 years old meet at Christ Church on a Friday
evening between 5.30pm and 6.30pm.

We have had trips out to the fire station and police visiting all to learn bout what to do in emergencies.

We have recently developed a link with a Rainbow unit in America. So hoping to share ideas, letters and pictures.

We attended a fun day for all Rainbows in Leicestershire where we learnt new crafts, games, circus skills and made new friends.

We had a Rainbow sleepover all to do with Spring time. We had activities around spring cleaning, growing spring flowers and looking for signs of spring in the world around us.

This term we are going to looking at keeping healthy physically, mentally and socially.

We always include lots of time out doors, food, craft and FUN.

If your daughter enjoys crafts, messy play, challenges, games, singing, laughter and having fun then Rainbows is where she will find it.
