Programme/Activities:

My visit was a Parents Night. All sections were together in the main hall. The Moderator opened and closed the programme with short prayers. There was a very good attendance of parents. The Explorers made Easter cards with materials prepared by leaders. The Junior section also made cards by using photographs of themselves previously taken by leaders and the Brigaders made cup cakes. All girls listened to and followed instructions for their activities and enjoyed the results. Parents were encouraged to help.

During the session, the girls have enjoyed a sleep-over and a curry night.

The Brigaders had prepared and served a meal for the leaders. A visit to the pantomine had to be cancelled due to adverse weather but it was hoped to make a visit to the cinema soon.

Medals and trophies were presented for service and achievements.
