Fun for girls from 5 years upwards in a caring and safe organisation. We meet in the Guide Headquarters on Aylsham Rd. North Walsham.
We are always ready to welcome new members. We have weekly meetings and also group holidays and extra outings in the school holidays.

We began with a launch sleep over at Sheringham junior School 5 Brownies from 4th NW attended.

We went on the 'Santa' special train at North Norfolk railway.
We went to Butlins at Skegness for a weekend of fun and games.
We had a special Girlguiding Centenary Thinking Day service at the Cathedral in Norwich and our own in North Walsham Church.
Our Senior Section girls had challenged the Local Guides, Brownies, Rainbows
and Trefoil to a Movie Challenge and we had our own Oscar awards afternoon in Mundesley with real Oscars for the Girls (all of whom wore the most elegant dresses )to collect. We also had a red carpet walk way.
We had a trip to Colchester Zoo and we fed the Elephants and Giraffes.
We climbed South Repps Church tower (by the inside steps). We had made parachuts for Teddies and a helper, helped the Teddies to parachute down to the ground.
We had an end of term party at Stompers with food and a chocolate cake.
We went away for a week on our pack holiday. It was very wet but we had a good time
and did lots of fun things. Including swiming, go-karts, pond dipping, sand castles on the beach (in the rain) pottery painting with Sticky Earth in Cromer.
We went to Gt Yarmouth with thousands of other Girl Guiding members from all over Norfolk for the 'Seaside Sparkle'. We raised funds by holding a jumble sale. The money we raised went to help with the cost of going to Gt. Yarmouth and having a meal in a restaurant and swimming at the Marina Centre.
To finish the Centenary Year on 20/10/2010 there was 'Vision' which was an enjoyable get together of the North Norfolk Girlguiding members and thinking about our Vision for Girlguiding in the future.
We had a very exciting year in 2010 and we have not rested on our laurels we have already had a weekend away, raised money with another jumble sale to buy items for 11 shoe boxes to send to samaritans purse and had a badge day,
we have lots of FUN things planned including a pack holiday in August.
