A summary of the Charltys maln actlvltles to further Its purposes for the publlc beneflt and the
1st Ballynahinch Guides and Rangers continued to meet on Zoom throughout 2021 with 10 girls in
attendance weekly.
We continued with the ever popular baking, including chocolate
cake in a mug (you must try this, it is is delicious!) and lemonade
scones to name just a few. The leaders particularly enjoyed not
having to clear up afterwardsl All of the girls completed the Girl
Guiding Ulster Shine badge which involved making lighthouses.
learning some sign language and completing random acts of
kindness. At the end of June we had an Jumping Clay join us in a
virtual meeting and we all made our own mini me guide or leader
and had a badge giving in the car park so was great to see everyone face to face.
In September we had hoped to begin the guiding year in the hall, but with the schools being back
and Covid cases so high we decided it would be better and safer to stay on Zoom. We continued
with many varied activities including making googley eye headbands, origami bookmarks, poppy
pinwheels and follow my instructions tasks (easier said than done). We
have completed the Sock Challenge Badge and Parliament Week Badge.
We were delighted to tske part in the Ballynahinch RBL Remembrance
Day parade this year for the first time since 2019.
We were able to have our Christmas party in the hall where we made
Christmas tree hot chocolate baubles, and craft and generally got to
know each other again. Everyone enjoyed being able to have a face to face chat.
Since February half term we have been back in the hall full time with around 9 members. We would
hope these numbers would increase now we are back in the hall and trust that September will see
some new faces joining us.
Our girls are to be praised for their commitment each week turning up and taking part in all off the
online and now face to face artivities.
