It's 2015!

Welcome to our blog this 2015! HSS guides have some exciting activities lined in celebration of the year of Jubilee! 

We are glad to have had a friendly captains ball match with the GB. It's the first time we are playing together in our GG history. The Guides had a lot of fun and we predict we will be seeing a lot more of them this year and beyond. 

The sec 4s Joanne and Si Ting led the sec 3s in their first 5 point module on personal safety yesterday. Apart from being made aware of the potential dangers we face at home, school and on the roads, they learnt what are some precautions to take to guard themselves better. 

The module concluded with a debate on: 'Is it ok to accept a stranger's Facebook request?'. Though there were differing views, the Guides demonstrated that they were able to look after themselves, who to look for when they are in doubt and most importantky, they were aware of potential dangers of friendships that start on social media.

Thank you Joanne & Si Ting for the engaging session!  Next up, are our PLs Nazirah and Sharifa leading the gold module!

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
