Who are Brownies?

Brownies are girls between the ages of 7 and 10 years old who are a member of a Brownie Pack.

What do Brownies do?

You will take part in all sorts of activities from crafts and games to outdoor challenges. During school term time we meet once a week and go on trips & pack holidays during the rest of the year.

Brownies belong to small groups called Sixes within a Pack. Being in sixes means you can make friends very quickly as other members always look after one another.

To serve the Queen and my country,

And To kept the Brownie Guide Law.

Brownie Songs

At the beginning of every meeting most Brownie units sing the Brownie Song:

We're Brownie Guides, We're Brownie Guides,
We're here to Lend a Hand
We love our God and serve our Queen and help our homes and lands
We've Brownie friends, We've Brownie friends,
From North, South, East and West
We join together in our wish to try to do our best.

At the end of each meeting Brownie Bells is sung, here are the words & click play on the shockwave file for the music.

Thy children call.
Grant us Thy peace,
And bless us all.
