Girlguiding Wyndham District – We give girls a space to belong and have fun! We bring girls together to have incredible adventures, figure out what makes them tick, share laughs and learn about the world around them. Maybe you recognise us from your own childhood or used to know us as the ‘Girl Guides’?  Whether your child comes from generations of guiding or your family’s completely new to our movement, she’ll find a space to belong here.  

Girlguiding offers all girls an equal sense of belonging, no matter who they are or where they’re from. Ours is a relaxed and encouraging all-girls space where every girl can feel at home, guided by our inspiring volunteers. We know the barriers girls face, and we’re committed to making sure they have equal opportunities to thrive. Our programme is packed full of resources to help girls build their confidence and speak out.
