Movilla Abbey  A Brownies is a group of girls aged between 7 & 10 years old who meet 33 weeks of the year on Monday evenings between 6.30pm & 8pm. Between September 2023 & August 2024 there were 19 brownies irregular attendance. 

During the year the brownies took part in activities such as games, badge work & crafts. As a unit we participated in a range of activities including investigating & learning about various jobs & recycling used milk cartons to make them into useable things such as pencil holder or vase & learned about planets in our solar system in a space themed night. These activities were chosen for the girls to achieve a range of badges. We had girls complete their bronze & silver& gold awards. 

We attended the christmas pantomime in our local amateur theatre & we had a camp themed night where we designed tents & toasted marshmallows. We also went on an action packed brownie camp for 3 days.
