Program
The program for the day was put together using topics that were not covered at last November's Workshop/Network day, and others that have been requested this year. Nature Play will be a highlight - it's being run twice so hopefully most Leaders will be able to attend. Olaves and other adult members are welcome too.
The program has been set up with two or more options in most time brackets. When you book we ask you to choose the options you'd like to be involved in. A short blurb about each session is below. Come for one workshop, half a day or all day, whatever works best for you.

Bookings close on 31 October
Nature Play
8.45 - 12.00pm & 1.15 - 4.15pm
Do you want to learn about new ways to engage your girls in the outdoors? The nature play workshop will give you some tools to have your girls exploring the natural world right on the doorstep of your hall. It will run twice with the same content
Building Resilience in your Guides

We all know why resilience is an important skill to have. Learn some fun ways to help your Guides develop resilience, and share your ideas for other activities that work
Managing Difficult Behaviours
10.45am - 12.00pm
The name of this workshop really says it all! The aim is to help understand why difficult behaviours might occur, and to arm you with strategies to manage that behaviour at Guide meetings and events
Meet the Region Team
12.00pm
Hopefully we'll have much of the Region Team available for a question and answer session leading up to the lunch break. Here's your chance to meet that person who sends you emails, and ask that question that's been bugging you for ages!

If you completed your Passport in 2018, or working are through your Passport now, this is the session for you.

The presenters have worked hard to develop these workshops, and we really hope to see many of our adult members at some stage over the course of the day. The last session finishes at 4.15pm, and we'll have a quick clean up and closing ceremony after that.
Bookings will close on Wednesday 31 October to give the presenters time to ensure they have enough equipment and copies etc. for their workshops.
WE HOPE TO SEE YOU THERE!
