The mentor took everyone through the module 1 qualification so we can ensure that we cover all the ground so the qualification can be achieved. As experienced leaders, it was agreed that completing the new on-line leaning module would be appropriate training this time as no classroom sessions are available.
Additional First Aid training was investigated but unfortunately the timely and suitable St John's Activity First Aid course was cancelled. On reflection, we will not attempt to find another course at this time as everyone has a valid First Response certificate. We will try to schedule something for a future date perhaps using our own Guide trainer.
The low ropes instructor course takes about 7 hours and will be offered in sections starting on 9 July by our team at the activity centre.
Other activities which are leader-led eg. grass sledging will follow the normal routine of a comprehensive safety briefing on the day to the leaders.
We will book instructors if other specialist sessions are required this year and review adding training for future years
We're delighted you are interested in this project which we hope will get more girls into Guiding in Gloucestershire and having a great time. Please feel free to share your comments. I will be using this Blog to record the way we have gone about it so that if others are interested they can use or improve the process
