Warwickshire (UK) Girl Guides Visit the Europe Office

Ist Overslade Guide Unit

In July 2011 during a 6 day visit to Brussels, Belgium, travelling via Eurostar from the UK and staying in a local youth hostel, the Ist overslade guides, a group of 8 guides, 2 young leaders and 5 adult leaders visited the Europe office on 26 July to learn more about the Region.

This is what they have to say about their visit:

Bonjour! Hola! Hello!
We are guides from Rugby and have come to Belgium to discover chocolate, culture & the Manneken Pis!
We arrived on the Eurostar and have walked aound Brussels discovering the Atomnium, Planetarium, chocolate factories, museums and the WAGGGS Europe HQ. All a lot of fun.
We have had a great time learning all about Girl Guiding and would like to thank the WAGGGS staff and our leaders for making the vist possible.

After meeting the staff and a quick look around the offices we enhanced our knowledge of WAGGGS with a quiz. The staff who were friendly and helpful were full of useful info which we can take back to Rugby, Works, England and share.

We really enjoyed our visit to the WAGGGS Europe office. We came to find out more about Girl Guiding and we learnt that WAGGGS has a lot of responsibility in the world. It made us feel that every contribution we make has a big impact in our world.
