Uniforms - Burundi

This is my final post on uniforms around the world. As you may have guessed it will be on the uniforms in Burundi. The different age groups in Burundi are as follows. The first age group Bergeronnette Wagtail is aged 7 to 11. Then at age 12 till 15 you become a Girl Guide Junior and at 13 you are considered a Girl Guide Senior until 16. Then at 16 you are a Ranger.

All the different age groups in the Girl Guides in Burundi have the same uniform. It consists of a navy skirt and a short sleeved blue shirt with the Girl Guide Burundi badge on the left pocket. They have a different coloured scarf for each different Guide company.

The leaders also wear the same uniform as the Girls.

Uniforms - Pakistan




In this post I am going to write about the fourth country, Pakistan. The Girl Guides in Pakistan are split in three age groups. They are Junior guides who are aged 6 to 11. Then there are Girl Guides who are aged 11 to 16. The final age group is Senior Guides. They are aged 16 to 21.

The Junior Guides uniform is made up of four different parts. The first part is a white shalwar qameez. This is a long white dress like top and a pair of white trousers. The second piece of the uniform is a blue sash that looks like a v from the front. Then they have a white belt and a pair of black shoes.

The Girl Guide uniform is almost the same as the Junior Guide uniform except it has a green sash instead of a blue one and a green scarf.

The Senior Guides uniform also has a white shalwar qameez, white belt and black shoes. They have the same green sash as the Girl Guides and have a red scarf.

It appears that the leaders do not have uniform in Pakistan. In some pictures I have found they are wearing the same uniform as the Senior Guides.
