Pack Holiday
On the first weekend in December 2009,
I, along with Mary McFadyen, Laura Walsh and Jess Rens (our young
leader) had the privilege of taking 15 of St. Faith’s Brownies on our
first pack holiday.
We had spent the previous 12 months
attending training sessions, organising menus, activities and funding.
We spent two evenings (Friday and
Saturday) at Shirdley Hill and our theme was 'Christmas'.
We spent time doing crafts, playing
games, competing in teams and cooking and cleaning, but most
importantly having a great time. On the Saturday we even had a full
Christmas dinner with all the trimmings.
After reading the questionnaires we
provided as a form of feedback, I know that all the girls really
enjoyed themselves.
We successfully gained our pack
holiday licence and are now in a position to take the girls away
regularly. Here’s to summer 2011!
A Big Thank You!
St. Faith’s Brownies would like to
thank Amirah Groves' (one of our Brownies) dad for taking part in the
Christmas Santa Dash in December, where he managed to raise £240,
which he split equally between a children’s charity and St. Faith’s
Brownies.
We are extremely grateful for this
very generous boost to our funds and thank him again for his wonderful
generosity.
WELL DONE!
