The Malta Girl Guides Association inaugurated a new Guides unit in Gozo – 1st Victoria BC Unit. It takes the name after the hosting school – the Bishop’s Conservatory Secondary School.
The event, in the school’s hall, opened with Mass celebrated by the school’s chaplain, Fr Mark Bonello, during which new five leaders were enrolled. Following Mass, speeches were delivered by several members. The climax of the event was the enrollment of 24 Guides in their respective patrols. A reception followed.
Currently, the unit consists of only a Guides section (10 to 12 year-olds). They meet at the Bishop Conservatory Secondary School in Victoria on Fridays at 6pm.
Those interested to join in or to help the new unit are to contact the leaders on victoriabcgirlguides@gmail.com.
