It is relaunching its Pōkeno presence with code GIRL Matariki, a full-day event where girls will programme a robot to draw the Matariki constellation, among other activities.
Local co-ordinators from the Te Kauwhata chapter Luci Fraser and Burnadette de Meyer are hoping families and parents would be keen to volunteer and help keep the Pōkeno chapter going.
"“The main thing that has kept us going and that I think will be great for Pōkeno is the stability for the girls,” Fraser said.
“Especially at the moment where there are lockdowns and a lot of people moving into Pōkeno, the lives of all these children are just so massively changing.
“Girl Guiding is that one constant, that safe place they can go to every week, whether it’s online or in person, it’s a safe consistent place that isn’t home or school.”
Would you volunteer for Girl Guiding or sign your daughters up?

We asked, listened, and collaborated directly with farmers in the making of this gear. We tested and re-tested in on-farm environments. We re-engineered what farming workwear can be with your needs front of mind.
We brought our decades of experience creating world-class performance gear. Add to that a legacy of Kiwi innovation, a challenger spirit and a practical attitude that’s been part of Line 7 since we started back in 1963.
Every detail has been reviewed and refined – without overlooking the obvious. Breathable, flexible, functional and comfortable, while still being supremely durable and waterproof. Made to fit farmers of all shapes and sizes, with a dedicated range for women. Built to last, and last a bit longer still, with an included repair kit that means you can fix it up quickly yourself.
Now take it out there, try it on and put it to the test. Wear it out and wear it again. We’re pretty damn confident you won’t be disappointed
