Britannia Park (Girl Guides Victoria)

The winning song, Kookaburra, by Marion Sinclair, was sung at the 1934 Scout Jamboree in the presence of Lord and Lady Baden-Powell.

A large fête called 'Walkabout' had been planned to be held in the Melbourne Town Hall in the same year to raise money for the camp.

The fête was held as planned, but the money raised (£1,000) was given to the Red Cross and to the Guide War Work for British evacuee children.

A blanket made from the wool of a Confederate soldier's uniform, donated by Helen Storrow, hangs in the Camberwell Room.

At some time this was changed (possibly due to water restrictions and bush fire danger) to be held in the September School Holidays.

Due to increased potential fire risk at Britannia Park during the summer months, it was relocated by the organising committee to the Marcus Oldham College in Geelong.
