Brownies

Woodside Park has a thriving Brownies group catering for girls aged from 7-10 in the community.

The 5th North Finchley Brownie pack meets at the Shul during term times every week. It has been running for 21 years, and caters for girls aged 7-10. They enjoy a varied programme based around the Girlguiding programme, centred on You, Your Community and Your World.

The girls have opportunities to make new friends, learn new skills and are encouraged to think for themselves. They can gain badges for such wide ranging activities as fire safety, first aid, world cultures, dancing, number skills and many many others. Because we are strictly limited to the numbers we can have in the Pack, please put your daughter's name down on the waiting list as soon as she starts school.

The brownies museum evening We made a "pop up" museum, whee the girls brought in items that illustrated some aspects of their own lives, or some items that they had collected. They all displayed them, and then we had a chance to look at everyone elses exhibits. At the end of the evening, the "Museum" closed for business! our photographs to see what fun we had.


The brownies decorated some boxes, which they then filled with goodies. Danni from GIFT then took them, and they were distributed to needy families the following day, thereby ensuring the Brownies did their "Good Turn" for the day! Take a look at the our photographs to see what fun we had.


The 5th North Finchley Brownies made a return visit to the Barnet Countryside centre last Monday, where they were able to do some exciting autumn related activities. They took part in a bug hunt race, made acorn necklaces, a greetings card using natural materials, tried their hand at stone sculpture and also free form art work again using natural materials found in the autumn. They were complemented on their creativity as well as their good behaviour! Take a look at the our photographs to see what fun we had.


The 5th North Finchley Brownies and the the 4th Southgate Brownies have just taken part in their first camp. Take a look at the video below and our photographs to see what fun we had.


"Thank You" from the 5th North Finchley Brownies to both Waitrose and all the members of the community for supporting us in their Community Matters scheme. We have received a donation of £240, which will be used to help give our Brownies a fantastic time at our next residential event in June.
