Reviews
In Flanders fields the poppies blow Between the crosses, row on row...
Our beautiful poppy wreath made by the girls to remember brave men and women who have lost their lives in conflict.
They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old: Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn. At the going down of the sun and in the morning, We will remember them.
Great turn out and a fantastic number of food donations - well done everybody!
TODAY IS THE INTERNATIONAL DAY OF THE GIRL
The United Nations declared October 11 as the International Day of the Girl Child in 2012, to recognize girls’ rights and the unique challenges girls face around the world.
Girls face discrimination and violence every day across the world. The International Day of the Girl Child focuses attention on the need to address the challenges girls face and to promote girls’ empowerment and the fulfilment of their human rights.
... In 2013 the focus for the International Day of the Girl is education and the role that education can play in making a difference to the lives of girls and young women.
Did you know that 66 million girls are missing from school rooms across the globe?
Let's remember girls around the world in our prayers today!!

Thank you all who supported us and sponsored us walking 3.5 miles to raise money for the GB equipment fund. We had a lovely walk, here's some photos from the morning.
Our craft box is filling up fast - thank you so much everyone. Keep your eyes peeled at the start of November, our handy work will be displayed for you all to see what we have done with it!
Thursday 12th September - our first taster session is over! "The chocolate game" led to chaos and lots of fun :) Check out how crafty we can be - we made these cute paper flowers using 1 square of coloured card and a pipe cleaner!
We will be walking 3 Miles on 29th September to raise funds for our New Equipment Fund. We want to be sure Girls' Brigade will always be a group young people will want to come and be part of. We feel offering more challenging and engaging games and activities as part of our badge programme will help us to achieve this goal so we are fundraising towards updating the equipment we have to offer. Please show your support and join us or sponsor those of us who will be walking :) - sponsorship forms are at St Nicholas' Church and on our notice board in St Stephen's. Thank You!
Don't forget Parade Service - Sunday 8th September 10.30am St. Nicholas Church, Elmdon Park
