My dd is in a rainbow group which she loves and cannot wait to be a brownie once she turns 7. However, the brownie pack does not at the moment have spaces for her (she is 7 in sept). I was hoping she could stay at rainbows for a little bit while we wait fir a place to come up at brownies. The rainbow leader has told me that she must leave as soon as she is seven because she won't be covered by their insurance anymore. Other parents have been quite surprised when I mentioned this as was.
Do any rainbow or brownie leaders know whether this is correct?
I could understand if there was a waiting list for the rainbow group ( there may well be) then of course she could leave, but I'm not convinced about the insurance thing.
Also, other parents have said that their daughters transition between rainbows and brownies was handled by the leaders communicating between rainbows and brownies. My daughter's leader has not done anything about it and simply said I should have contacted the brownie leader myself by now since there is a long waiting list for brownies.
