Promise and Law

Every Guide around the world makes a Promise when they understand the commitment they are making. For younger girls it should be with the agreement of their parents and Leader.
 
 The Australian Guide Promise

I promise that I will do my best:
  to do my duty to God, to serve the Queen and my country,
  to help other people, and to keep the Guide Law.

 Serving your Queen and Country

The Queen is Australia's Head of State - to serve her is to serve Australia. How can you be a good citizen?


Does your Unit go to Citizenship Ceremonies to carry the flags and welcome new Australians?

Our State Governor, Her Excellency Professor Marie Bashir represents the Queen in NSW, and is also the State President of Guides NSW.
