Guiding in Mosman is a wholly voluntary organisation.  If you’re an adult over 18 years of age, you can help make Guiding happen by becoming a volunteer member.

Volunteering with Girl Guides is a fun and rewarding way to help open a world of possibilities for girls. All you need is a little extra time, and the desire to do something worthwhile and fulfilling.  There are numerous ways to help out in both a formal and an informal capacity.

As a Unit Leader or Helper

If you have enthusiasm for life, a willingness to try new things, and a sense of community, you have all the skills required to be a Unit Leader or Helper. The only other thing you’ll need is the time to commit to supporting the girls in your Guide Unit on a weekly basis.  Your role would include the following:

• Leading your Unit of girls
• Helping your Unit decide what activities it wants to do
• Facilitating those activities
• Liaising with both parents and the staff in the office of Girl Guides NSW, ACT & NT
• Attending age-appropriate events with your Unit.

Girl Guides – Monday 6:30 – 8:00 pm

Junior Guides – Wednesday 6:00 – 7:30 pm

Training and Support Provided                  

Every month, Girl Guides NSW & ACT run Guiding Orientation webinars. They run for about an hour and are the place to start, if you’re thinking about becoming a Guide Leader. Leadership Qualification training is then provided at no cost to those making the commitment to become involved.  Throughout your training, an experienced Guide Leader will support you and act as your learning partner.

District or Support Group Roles

If working with girls is just not you right now, or you’re unable to make a regular weekly commitment, you might be more suited to being a Leader of Adults.

Girl Guides couldn’t operate without volunteer managers who help to coordinate our Leaders and ensure the smooth running of Guide Districts.  If your background includes skills in managing people, you might be the ideal candidate for a District management position.

Share your skills and experiences

Although you mightn’t be able to commit to a leadership or management role, there are still lots of ways to be involved. Community members often work together in a volunteer capacity with parents and Leaders to build their local Guide District. Did you know you can even join or volunteer for any role without having a daughter in Girl Guides?

Your Guide District’s management team or support group will likely have different roles to suit a variety of talents. Through volunteering, you’ll join other enthusiastic and friendly people helping your Girl Guides in your community through activities such as:

• Assisting with maintaining the hall or meeting place
• Promoting Guides in the community
• Helping raise funds to assist with hall insurance, resources and equipment used by the District.

Hall Maintenance and Community Thanks

This page summarises recent major achievements relating to the maintenance of the Mosman Guide Hall.

These works would not have been possible without the generosity and kindness of various businesses within the Mosman and surrounding communities, who gave money, time, equipment, products and services to ensure that our lovely hall for hire and party venue not only looks amazing but is a safe and fun environment for any and all who use it.  We thank these businesses and individuals for their support and look forward to many years of co-contributions from our community to them and theirs.

We hope that all who visit this page will thank these companies by using them for any services that they provide.

Wednesday 6:00 – 7:30 pm Age 7-10 

Junior Guides in Mosman provides a space where girls can be girls for a little bit longer while still enjoying fun activities, developing new and lasting friendships, and having adventures whilst engaging in age-appropriate activities.

Our programme is all about providing a supportive environment for the girls to try new challenges, giving them opportunities to gain confidence in speaking up and being heard, and most importantly having fun each week.  We operate a Patrol system whereby the older girls in the unit will become Patrol Leaders and help the younger girls develop their skills through sharing knowledge and experiences.  No matter what inspires your daughter, or what interests her most, Junior Guides will help her develop her potential while also making new friends.

Activities 

Throughout the year we undertake a wide range of activities:

• Weekly meeting – fun, games, crafts, team building, imagination and adventure.
• Outdoor adventure – bush walks, rock climbing, sleepovers, water fun and bush skills.
• Themed programmes – environmental, world, home skills, our five senses and emergency.
• Unit camps – get away for some fun and adventure with your Junior Guide Unit
• Community events – Clean up Australia Day, Christmas Carols at BUPA Mosman, Bag Packing and visits to local service providers.
• Region fun days and events – join with other Junior Guide Units in the Northern Sydney Region to make new friends and have a great time.
• NSW & ACT events – wider events for the whole state including the popular Lark in the Park at Centennial Park.

Leaders         

Mosman Junior Guides is led by a volunteer adult leadership team, mostly made up of parents in the Junior Guide Group.  Their names are taken from native animals and birds and create a fun and friendly setting for Junior Guides to be held.

Monday 6:30 – 8:00 pm   Age 10-14

For over 100 years, Girl Guides has provided a unique space for girls in Mosman to learn new skills, make new friends, and become more community-minded.

Our programme is all about trying new challenges in a safe environment, helping the girls develop confidence in their abilities, giving them an understanding of the amazing possibilities life offers, and most importantly having fun each week.  We operate a Patrol system whereby the older girls will become Patrol Leaders and help the other girls develop their skills through sharing knowledge and experiences.  No matter what inspires your daughter, or what interests her most, Girl Guides will help her develop her potential while also making new friends.  The guiding experience is very relevant in this modern day as it offers young girls the opportunity to express themselves whilst learning important friendship skills in an environment where they are interacting with other girls their own age and feeling safe and comfortable.  As many young people attest to feeling isolated from their peers, Mosman Girl Guides allows this interaction to occur under supervision from both adults and older girls.

Activities   

Throughout the year we undertake a wide range of activities:

• Weekly meeting – fun, adventure, leadership skills, creativity and exploration.
• Outdoor adventure – rock climbing, camping, high ropes, bush skills and water-based fun.
• Themed programmes – Get Active, Get Gourmet, Get Relaxed and Rested, Get Real, Team Girl and girl-chosen themes for camps.
• Unit camps – get away for some fun and adventure with your Guide Unit.
• Community Events – Clean Up Australia Day, Christmas Carols at BUPA Mosman, Bag Packing and Carol Singing at Woolworths.
• Region fun days and events – join with other Guide Units in the Northern Sydney Region to make new friends and have a great time.
• NSW & ACT events – wider events for the whole state including the popular Great Guide Sleepover at Taronga Zoo.
