Since its launch in 2012\, more than 600 of our Guides have become GB Ambassadors of the award-winning garden. Guides who have completed the programme discovered more about the vast variety of plants and acquired valuable knowledge on the sustainability efforts of the garden. In addition\, they also gained experience by conducting garden tours as well as facilitating and delivering programmes amidst the beautiful setting. This is indeed a great learning opportunity for the Guides as they play an active role in one of Singapore’s popular tourist attractions.\n\n \nSession 3 & 4: ASK Me!

Do they want to make a positive change in your community? If so\, join our Advocacy Mentorship Programme 2026!\n\nThis is a programme for Guides to work in teams of three or four to design and execute an original advocacy project. This project should be related to one of the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs): \n\n SDG 3: Good Health and Wellbeing\n SDG 5: Gender Equality\n SDG 10: Reducing Inequalities\n SDG 13: Climate Action\n\nEach team will be paired up with an External Mentor who has substantial experience and knowledge advocating for the chosen SDG. The External Mentor will provide project guidance and feedback to develop the group’s project management and advocacy skills.\n\nAdvocacy is not simply raising awareness of an issue; it involves mobilizing collective action to promote changes in policy\, practices\, or laws. Advocacy should ultimately identify and target one or more decisionmaker(s) (e.g.\, school principal\, community leaders\, Member of Parliament\, or businesses leaders). To learn more about advocacy\, access the WAGGGS toolkit here: https://www.wagggs.org/en/what-we-do/girl-led-advocacy/advocacy-toolkit/ \n \nDuration of Project\n\nAll projects must be completed within six working months (e.g. 16 May 2026 to 16 November 2026). Progress shall be tracked in detail by the group.\n\nWithin this six-month period\, the team must complete their advocacy project and accumulate at least 10 hours of execution time.\n\n‘Execution’ does not include planning time and refers to any action of creation or advocacy (e.g.\, pitching to decision-maker\, making banners\, setting up and running social media campaigns\, giving speeches\, etc.).\n\nThere will be an Opening Meeting and Launch for at Guide House on 16 May from 9.30am – 12.30pm. As has been the case in previous years\, the official closing of the programme will be marked by World Thinking Day 2027. However\, apart from these two events\, the dates and times of group meetings and activities will be decided by the group in consultation with their External Mentor.\n\nThis project (once completed) is also eligible as an Advocacy Project under Initiatives or can be used as the PGA candidates’ VIA project.\n\nAt the end of the project\, each group will have to submit the following: \n\n A project portfolio\, which includes photographs and individual group members’ reflections.\n All activities during the project period\n Corresponding time spent on each activity\,\n\nMore details will be provided to selected groups.\n\nEach group shall select a group leader. The group leader shall submit her group’s application\, after discussion with her teammates on the project proposal\, to this link. Throughout the project\, the group leader shall be responsible for communicating with GGS HQ and the group’s External Mentor.\n\nThere is no limit to the number of applications a school can submit. Should you wish to develop an existing project that had been created by Guides from your school\, your proposal should clearly state the new\, substantial elements of the project that you wish to embark on; it cannot be a mere repetition of what has been done before.\n\nApplications will close on 18 April 2026\, Saturday. Confirmation of final teams will be announced by 30 April 2026\, Thursday.\n\nTimeline\n3 March: Open Calls for AMP 2026 Submissions\n18 April: Deadline for submissions https://forms.gle/wf2k4T5WpdRado638\n30 April: Announcement of shortlisted teams with mentors\n16 May: Launch and Opening of AMP 2026 (compulsory for all shortlisted teams)\n\nIf you have any queries or concerns\, please email specialprojcomr@girlguides.org.sg. \n\nThank you! \nSincerely\, \n\nMs Anthea Goh\nSpecial Projects Commissioner URL:https://girlguides.org.sg/upcoming-events/advocacy-mentorship-programme-registrations-open-3/ CATEGORIES:Special Projects END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Asia/Shanghai:20260516T090000 DTEND;TZID=Asia/Shanghai:20260516T120000 DTSTAMP:20260605T111038 CREATED:20260301T203918Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260324T082225Z UID:19000-1778922000-1778932800@girlguides.org.sg SUMMARY:Olave 1st Pack Meeting DESCRIPTION:Dear Olave 1st Pack Brownies\,\n\nPlease note that there is a Meeting for Olave 1st Pack on 16 May 2026\, 9am to 12pm at Training Room\, Level 2.\n\nFor parents interested to send your daughters / wards to join the Olave 1st Pack\, please click on the link here for more details. \n\nThank you.\n\nSincerely\, \nMs Candice Soh\nCommunity Guiding Commissioner URL:https://girlguides.org.sg/upcoming-events/olave-1st-pack-meeting-16-may-2026/ LOCATION:Girl Guides\, 9 Bishan Street 14\, Singapore 579785\, girl-guides-9-bishan-street-14-singapore-579785\, Singapore\, Singapore CATEGORIES:Community Guiding END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Asia/Shanghai:20260516T090000 DTEND;TZID=Asia/Shanghai:20260516T130000 DTSTAMP:20260605T111038 CREATED:20260303T005455Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260303T081209Z UID:19120-1778922000-1778936400@girlguides.org.sg SUMMARY:BTC Theory Module (Part 2) DESCRIPTION:Dear Guiders / Adult Leaders\,\n\nGirl Guides Singapore (GGS) will be conducting the Basic Training Course (BTC) in March–July 2026 for all Adult Leaders leading the Brownies / Girl Guides’ programme in School.\n\nThe BTC is a compulsory training course for all teachers who are appointed as Guiders for the school CCA\, Brownies / Girl Guides and for any Young Adult who wishes to become a warranted Guider.
