Wee Kim Wee Challenge (Final Round)

Dear Guiders,

We are pleased to bring back Wee Kim Wee Challenge Shield 2025!

President Wee Kim Wee presented Girl Guides Singapore with a shield bearing the Istana’s Coat of Arms in 1994 just before he ended his final term. This Challenge was held on a biennial basis and has seen umpteen Girl Guides through a variety of challenges—each challenging them to exercise creative and critical thinking skills. 

The Wee Kim Wee Challenge was revived in 2007 challenging Guides to showcase their culinary skills and present their dishes creatively. The dishes originate from Ms Wee Eng Hwa’s Cooking For The President’s Cookbook. 

The champion will have their school name carved into the Shield and be able to display the shield in their schools for 2 years!

We are now inviting Brownie Packs, Guide Companies and Young Adults to participate in this year’s Wee Kim Wee Challenge.
