A summary of the Charity’s main activities to further its purposes for the public benefit and the main achievements in the year 

Our membership was of 24 girls with an average of 20 attending each week. 

We had 2 trips to the local cinema with other Girl guiding units. 

We had our first sleepover at the Brownie meeting place with a pamper theme. 

We took the Brownies on an overnight camp with a St Patricks Day theme to Lorne Activity Centre where this did crafts and various outdoor activities. 

We were able to award out first Bronze award, numerous theme awards and lots on interest badges including Charities, Baking and Languages. 

There was no harm flowing from the Charities purposes and that there was no private benefit.
