That's all for 2014!

The Hendersonian Guides wrapped up the year 2014 with a sell out of our cookies out in a record breaking hour! We apologize if many did not get their hands on the tins of their preferred choice. We would like to take this chance to say we truly appreciate the support HSS students, teaching and non teaching staff have given to the Guide movement. 

We are sure the yummy cookies are a well deserved treat for the completion of a rather eventful year! We had heaps of events this year: Grow week, Speech day, our 40th anniversary concert the ALP programme roll out, learning journeys, engineering competitions & most recently the D&I day & Roots coming up next week. The Guides led their first combined UG campfire & went on to win several competitions at our SDD 2014.

Congrats to the Morning Glory patrol for coming in first in our semester long inter patrol competitions. They truly are a strong team that remains undefeated. The Guiders are certain Orchid and Hibiscus will give them a good run to maintain their title next year.


Really looking forward to the activities planned for next year. We shall bid you goodbye for now. Happy holidays!!! See you all rested and ready to zoom come 2015!

HENDERSON GIRL GUIDES
The Guides' Motto

Be Prepared

The motto, Be Prepared , shares the Founder’s initials and is a practical reminder of the educational purposes of Girl Guiding.


What does HSS Girl Guides do?

The Girl Guides Singapore's mission is to eanble girls and young women to develop their fullest potential as responsible citizens of the world. In Henderson Secondary School, we work very closely with this mission. Being a Guide you can learn new skills, make your own decisions and not forgetting, have fun. Guiding in HSS provides a safe platform and environment to explore new possibilities and achieve personal goals while making friends and having adventures.


More about Girl Guides

Girl Guides work together in Patrols. We elect our own Patrol Leaders and plan our own activities to eusure the total development of our girls.

The Guide Promise to us is very crucial and it is the pivot behind Girl Guiding:

I promise to do my best,
To do my duty to God,
To serve my country
and help other people,
and to keep the Guide Law


We also follow the 10 Guide Laws:
1. A Guide is loyal and can be trusted
2. A Guide is useful and helps others
3. A Guide is polite, considerate and respects her elders
4. A Guide is friendly and a sister to all Guides
5. A Guide is kind to all living things
6. A Guide is obedient
7. A Guide has courage and is cheerful in all difficulties
8. A Guide takes care of her own possessions and those of other people
9. A Guide Is thrifty and diligent
10. A Guide is self-disciplined in what she thinks, says and does
