The Royal Air Force was also there, to celebrate the start of an ambitious three-year partnership by helping the girls to make space rockets out of film canisters and see how far they could make them fly.
Last July, Girlguiding launched its updated programme of more than 800 new badges and activities. The RAF will be supporting the development of new activities to engage girls in STEM subjects, science, technology, engineering and maths.
