QSS Campfire

Date: 30th October 2008
Event: QSS campfire
Venue: Queensway Secondary School
Time: 1830-2130
Guides Involved: Pariza, MeiQin, Ashmitha, Lakshmi, Shanne, Sangeetha & Nicole
Guiders/YA Present: Ms Gloria Leng & MonaRekha

The campfire was small and cosy but yet fun filled. Everyone enjoyed it and didn’t want to say goodbye. Even though Henderson guides came in a little later then the others, they were still warmly welcomed by their fellow guide sisters.

The campfire started at about 6.30pm and the theme was spooky Halloween. The Queensway guides were very innovative as at the entrance they did a small “haunted house” were they dressed up as scary spooky ghosts. After getting to our place, we did a Henderson cheer to boost up our spirit! Following that we had sing-a-long and games.

The games were very out of the box. All the guides were very enthusiastic about the games. They all joined in the fun. In one of the games we were given 3 rolls of newspaper to dress up a guide as a mummy and that lucky person to get chosen from our school was Nicole. The last game was for the school mascot who was dressed up as the spooky Halloween girl. So, as they called them up to go on the stage, I went up as I was representing my school. All the mascots were chosen based on their dancing! As I wasn’t much of a dancer, I was very nervous.

As the campfire came to an end, they released the results to the games. Henderson Girl Guides won 2 games. The ping pong ball and the best mascot dancing! All of us were shocked and we did the Henderson cheer!

The campfire was very innovative and it the first ever Halloween campfire all of us attended. We experienced something new and really enjoyed it.

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
