The event, for Brownies aged seven-10, took place at High Tunstall School.
Hartlepool Life photographer Michael Gant captured these images of enthusiastic Brownies as they participated in various science crafts and also made rockets with High Tunstall STEM teachers.
Meanwhile, Hartlepool Girlguiding has asked for help as it nears a fundraising target to save a cottage which has been a holiday destination for thousands of members over decades.
Girlguiding Cleveland, which has 2,300 members across Teesside, has been using Egton House, in North Yorkshire, for trips since 1969.
But the house had to be closed two years ago due to severe damp which made the building “unusable”.
Hartlepool Girlguiding’s Rachel Lee attended Egton House as a child and said it was “heartbreaking” to see the cottage in such a state of disrepair.
She said: “Egton is my happy place and holds so many memories for me – from going there as a young child, as a Brownie and a Guide, and then taking my own Brownie unit. Egton will always hold a special place in my heart.”
She added: “I hope that by raising enough money, we will be able to repair our cottage and reopen it for future generations to enjoy holidays there, like I did.”
