Members of our school who are part of our district Guide or Scout units are encouraged to wear their scouting or guiding uniforms to school on 22nd February.

 

Each year on 22nd February, members of the Guide and Scout movements all over the world celebrate World Thinking Day. It’s a day when they think of each other and give thanks and appreciation for the international friendships.

 

22nd February was chosen as the date for Thinking Day because it was the mutual birthday of Lord Baden-Powell, founder of the Scout movement, and his wife Olave who served as World Chief Guide. One of the traditions of Thinking Day is that members of the Guiding and Scouting movement wear their uniforms to school to show others that they are part of the movement.
