Girl Guiding in Australia is delivered through the Australian Guide Program (AGP), which is a non-formal education program based on shared leadership and decision-making at all ages.
The AGP is facilitated by trained volunteer Leaders with a focus on programs being girl-led.
This means that all the activities the girls do, from weekly Unit meetings, to camps, to expeditions and hikes, are driven by the girls themselves with input and assistance from their Leaders, and planned to match the girls’ abilities.
When girls join a Guide Unit in their local area, they are given the space to develop new interests, identify hidden talents and share their experience with the support of the Guide Leaders. What’s more, Girl Guides are part of the largest voluntary Movement dedicated to girls and young women in the world. There’s a world of possibilities out there, and Girl Guides are given the space and support to explore it in their own way.
Girl Guides Tasmania offer a
4 week trial which enables you to participate in all activities and really experience Guiding before making the decision to
join.
