Girl GuidesTitle Making Waves a Bold Approach to Lifesaving Eight-year-old Carine Girl Guide Jedda is also a member of Trigg Surf Life Saving Club and she recently competed in the Little Nippers Carnival at Cottesloe Beach. Jedda is fearless when it comes to the water races and always gives it her all. She doesn't know the meaning of giving up and ends each race with a smile on her face. Jedda's superpowers are her inner strength and determination to try her hardest. She never forgets that she made a promise to "do her best". Jedda's parents report that attending Girl Guides has been wonderful for her confidence and independence. She loves completing badges and coming up with her own ideas about what she wants to achieve and how to challenge herself.

Monique and Isabelle make The Boldest cut Isabelle (13) and Monique (12) from Hampton Park Girl Guides (as well as Mum) recently cut off their long locks to donate it for wigs for those in need. They had been growing their hair for a long time and were a little anxious about going to short hairstyles. However, they took the plunge and gave up something special to them, putting others' needs ahead of their own concerns about their appearance. Isabelle donated 34cm and Monique 30cm. Bravo on making this bold move!
