Australia Day Jan 26th at the Churchill Public Hall.

Starting usually a 7am this local event is now being held at the Churchill Public Hall Entrance. Pre 2009 there were different places but it was mainly  in the Hazelwood and Churchill Shopping Center area. [behind the memorial wall, [cigar] behind the saloon bar [no longer there] in the car park.... (theory of this is great)] Or even at Gaskin Park (2008).

As a Hazelwood and Churchill Event it is open to all aged Guiding personal and members. Event permission forms should be handed to the Guide Leader in Charge of the Guides on the day... signed by parent or carrer.

Previous years we have been asked to face paint as an activity while people eat and catch up with friends.  Other times there have been odd jobs like the handing out of flags, song sheets, readings, hoisting the flag / colour party [with Scouts]. 

One draw back here is that we ususally do not get finalisation of anything until the week before.  When we do it will be posted here.  So keep an eye out and email us when if you think you are coming.

Australia Day in Melbourne

Australia Day celebrated as a State Event in Melbourne. This event has the Guides carrying a large Australian Flag.  For this the day is primarily aimed at the BP's, Queens Guide's and OBPs presented the previous year.  The years that I took Guides down who had achieved these Peak Achievement we had a ball.  At the end of the march there we were in Government gardens joining in the festivities.

Full Uniform is worn.  Take drink bottles full of water and sun hats.  Make sure you are well fed before the ceremonies begin.

Flags of the Hazelwood and Churchill Guide District

1. World Guide Flag, 
2. Australian Flag, 
3. Victorian Flag,
4. Churchill Guide Flag      [Blue and Purple]
5. Hazelwood Guide Flag  [ Pink,light blue stripes, orange and lime green dots]
6. Churchill  Guide Flag [ Bright mid purple]
7. Old Brownie Emblems [ Brown back ground yellow elf][Yellow background with brown elf]

Learning about the flags , care, use and reason for is a repetitive learning process.

Stuck in as boat with choc biscuits and our Unit flag.

It was just too hot to do much. Having to run Guides inside was a horrible thought.  So the Guides found an area of shade under a big tree... in the dingy. As a get to know one another exercise they played in and around the dingy.  Cordial and chocolate biscuits were supplied and they went fast.  [In between the talking that is.]

Then out came the flags.  The first was the old Unit flag for when the Hazelwood Guides meet. Designed by the Guides.  Various Guides, parents and leaders created the flag. Probably why the colours are a pink background with light blue wide ribbon obtuse angles stripes and bright pink and lime green 4 to 5 cm circles sewn on both sides.

  These current Guides chose to recycle the flag and use it at all meetings were their ages were. it also meant that they did not have to make one too.  The empty  Flag pole from the Morwell Guide District,  which were donated to the Hazelwood and Churchill Guide District that week, were recycled too.  Now they hold this flag. Okay with that.

 Since the Guides are receptive to learning about flags, and the decision was theres various flag learning objectives struck  Strategies for learning and using this flag were implemented.  The Guides were also interested in learning about other flags, the protocol, ceremonies, care of flags, and of course what do you do with them?

Making a decoration

To make flat for cards or tags you will need:

• card to make head and feet

• eyes (draw or purchase)

• a little wool to make hair

Glitter and a Large Ground sheet.

•  1 pretty doily

• glue

Instructions:

Fold the doily as per the illustration and glue feet under the

doily. Draw or attach features and hair to the head. Glue the

head in place and use to decorate Christmas cards, gift tags

and so on.

To make as a decoration you will need:

• small pompom for the head

•  eyes (draw or purchase)

• cardboard rolled into a tube narrower at the top than the bottom

•  1 pretty doily

• gold thread Instructions:

Roll an oblong of card into a tube shape which is a little narrower than the head pompom at the top but wider at the bottom. Experiment with the size of doily you are using—the tube should be 2cm shorter than the bottom edge of the doily. Fix the edges of the tube in place with sticky tape. Fold the doily in half and then fold it around the tube as per illustration, gluing the 'wing' folds together at the back so the tube cannot be seen. Glue the features to the head then glue the head in place. Attach a hanging loop made from the gold thread. Optional for both versions: spray with gold paint when all glue is dry.
