Forging friendships and honing skills

By CASEY NEILL

Greater Dandenong girls can learn skills through fun and forge friendships.
Girl Guides groups in Springvale and Noble Park are inviting girls aged five to 14 from all backgrounds to give the world-wide organisation a go.
Leaders are trained to guide the girls through indoor and outdoor games and activities that foster life skills and other informal learning.
The girls complete challenges at their own pace, make lifelong friends, develop confidence and contribute to their community.
From 5.30pm to 7.30pm on Monday 1 August, girls aged six to 10 years can try Guides at the Noble Park Guide Hall at Ross Reserve, corner Corrigan Road and Memorial Drive.
Girls aged 10 to 14 can give Guides a go at the hall from 7pm to 9pm on Wednesday 10 August.
Springvale Guide Hall, 55 Royal Avenue, Springvale, will host a ‘come and try’ session for girls aged five to 10 years from 4.30pm to 6pm on Wednesday 10 August.
Email rcurtis@guidesvic.org.au or call 0409 330 347 for more information.
