Full Uniform

A neat, full uniform is important to all Guides. It strengthens the unit spirit and unity. It also shows that we are having the same Promise, the same goal and are willing to follow the same Guiding Law . We should be proud of ourselves when we are wearing the uniform, and should bear in mind that we are members of the HKGGA. So, we should be more self-discipline when we are wearing the uniform as we are representing all the Girl Guides. Besides, one cannot wear the uniform before her enrollment.
