Explorers : 3 - 8 years old

We are the youngest group in the Girls’ Brigade and we have lots of fun every week in our Companies. To join the Explorer section you must be at least 3 years old. Some companies will take new starts as soon as they are 3 year s old and others will only take new starts if they are 3 on or before the 1st July each year.

Explorers are the ‘STARS’ in GB and earn STAR badges. Here’s what they like to do:

  • Play games
  • Dress up
  • Sing songs
  • Make things – especially messy things!
  • Run around
  • Paint and draw
  • Listen to Bible stories
  • Go on special outings to the zoo or a farm

Explorers are divided into different age groups ~ Under 5s and 5-7s so that we can make friends with girls around the same age.

We have our own uniform so we are really special! Explorers wear a navy tunic with a bright red jumper. When we’re playing games we wear a white blouse instead.

Explorers meet once a week during the winter months. To join us, contact us or Find a Company near you.
