YAs present: -

Just after my aLife lesson, I headed straight to the carpark next to the foyer. As usual, we did our roll-call. All the Patrol Leaders checked on our attire. After roll-call, we had our recess. At 10am, we slowly strolled to the parade square for the Enrollment Ceremony. During the ceremony, I learned how to work as a team. Teamwork is really important in forming the horseshoe . It was quite difficult. In the midst of the ceremony, all the Sec1 guides were required to recite the Three-Fold Promise. Mams than pinned the Trefoil on all the newly enrolled guide's scarf.

After the wonderful ceremony, we had some refreshments at the canteen. We were provided with fruits and sandwiches. Soon, we moved to the NE Square to collect our new CCA tee shirt. After that, some of our Sec3 guides shared their experience about the Camp Challenge. O think we can improve in our horseshoe formation the next time. By adding more quizzes and challenging activities, Fridays will be an interesting and a meaningful day to all guides.

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
