Sacred Heart Guide Company – Annual Report – 2016-17

“The destiny of a nation is folded within its youth as it is a flower within the close embrace of the petals that see the buds” – says our foundress Sister Lady Annie Besant.

The Sacred Heart Guide Company provides a non-formal education programme that is dynamic and flexible while offering value based training in life skills, decision making and leadership.

All the activities the girls do, from weekly meetings, to camps, to expeditions and hikes are driven by the girls themselves with input and assistance from their leaders and are planned to match the abilities of the girls.

The process used in our Guide programmme is Discover,Decide,Plan, Do and Check.

Our company’s mission is to empower girls and young women to grow into confident, respectable and responsible community members.

This character formation and health developing movement is a part of our school activity and has been increasing in strength every year.
