A summary of the Charity’s main activities to further its purposes for the public benefit and the main achievements in the year
We started back in September with 14 Brownies. We had a busy year working towards another 2 theme awards (Know Myself and Express Myself) The know myself theme got the girls to explore their emotions and learn about themselves. Lots of conversations about feelings and how to build confidence and how feelings affect behaviour. Express myself got the girls to be creative and encouraged them to try new things. We elebrated the Kings Cornation and did the Coronation Challenge badge. We worked towards our rights interest badge as a unit where we learnt about our rights and also the painting badge where the girls had to find out about different types of art and artists. Some of the girls worked towards the grow your own badge. We held our own sports day and managed to earn another bahde (get active badge). We 4 brownies complete their Bronze Award and 5 brownies completed their Silver Award. All leaders are very proud of the girls on how much they have achieved this year and enjoyed watching them grow in confidence.
