At our award night Brownies were presented with a special biosphere badge.  This was provided by Galloway and Southern Ayrshire Biosphere Organisation.  The girls had to complete two activities from 3 different topics  to gain the badge.  We incorporated the six activities into our programme and it meant that they also received their Take Action - Make Change Skillbuilder.

Our Brownie Trip this year was to Ayr.  Our intention was to go to the playpark and then go to Pickmeupplates to paint a plate however due to the weather we ended up going to Pirate Pete's instead and then on to our painting session.  A great day was had by all.
