RAINBOWS, Brownies, Cubs and Beavers at a school in Stourport-on- Severn held a nonuniform day to celebrate World Thinking Day.

Children at Burlish Park Primary School wore their troop uniforms to mark one of the most significant dates in the Guiding and Scout calendar.

The day is about thinking about the meaning of Guiding and Scouting and about Scouts and Guides in all the countries of the world.

Many troops use it as an opportunity to study about other countries and cultures.

The day, in February, was chosen as World Thinking Day as it was the birthday of Scouting founder Lord Robert Baden-Powell and of Olave Baden-Powell his wife and World Chief Guide.
