Description

A group of Brownies are seen playing games before the film moves to scenes from a Girl Guide camp - saluting the flag, a visit to a lido, a campfire sing-along and cooking on a barbecue. The Queen and Prince Philip visit Morwell, Victoria on March 3rd 1954 - children arriving on foot and by bus, the Royal couple on a stage at Traralgon and the open-topped Royal car passing through the streets.
