Spring into girls’ only fun

Looking for a fun and rewarding way to keep girls active and engaged during the school holidays? Look no further! Girl Guides Victoria is offering two single-day holiday programs in Lilydale and Mooroolbark on 25 and 26 September — DIY Adventure and Athlete Adventure. These programs are designed to get seven to 14-year-olds moving, learning new skills, and sharing unforgettable moments with new friends.

For girls who love to craft and create, DIY Adventure, held 25 September in Lilydale, offers a special blend of creative, practical and eco-friendly activities. Open to girls aged nine to 14, participants will spend the day woodworking, wool crafting, and upcycling. They’ll also get to make and take home their own fidget toys and shrinky keyrings! Secure your child’s spot and watch them craft, create and customise their way to new skills and creative fulfilment!

For girls aged seven to 12 with energy to burn, Athlete Adventure, held fittingly on 26 September, just before AFL Grand Final Eve, is the perfect way to kick off the holidays! Participants will gather in Mooroolbark where they’ll get into the AFL spirit with a footy clinic, try out barefoot bowls at Mooroolbark Bowls Club, and enjoy a cricket clinic run by Mooroolbark Cricket Club. They’ll even take part in the ever-amusing Potato Olympics, enhancing their physical and numerical skills while having a blast.

Both programs offer a day of excitement and personal growth, offering unique opportunities for girls to explore their interests and build new skills in a friendly, supportive, and oh-so-fun environment. Spots are limited and selling fast–book today to give your child a school holiday adventure they’ll remember for years to come: bit.ly/ggvholidayprogram.

Girl Guides Victoria Adventure Days are open to all girls aged seven to 14, not just current Girl Guides.
