About Us
Oakleigh South Guide Group is part of the world wide organisation of
Guides, which was founded by Lord Baden Powell over 90 years ago and is
available to girls and women in over 136 countries all over the world.
Being members of an international organisation, with over nine million
members world-wide, gives you many opportunities to discover the world.
Girls work in Patrols. A patrol is a small group of girls. Each patrol
has a Patrol Leader and a Patrol Second; these roles are a huge honour.
The Patrol system encourages team work, gives girls the opportunity to
lean leadership skills and fosters close friendships with their Patrol
members.
The Australian Guide program works on seven main principles:
Promise and Law
World Guiding
Outdoors
Leadership
Service
Patrol system
Guiding Traditions
Our weekly activities are all based on various aspects of the Australian
Guide Program.
Guiding has much to offer your daughter, but guiding is also open to the
rest of the family. If you have any other daughters, please ask us about
the other units in the Group, and we encourage parents to become
involved; your help, no matter how small is always appreciated.
