Jessica Scibberas
Jessica’s journey in Guiding began at the age of seven when she joined the Birkirkara Girl Guides. She later transitioned to the Rabat Girl Guides Unit, where she remained an active and dedicated member. Over the years, her involvement within the Guiding community continued to grow, and she is now a part of the Senior Rangers Section, contributing to various events and activities.
From 2022 to 2024, Jessica was a member of the first-ever Youth Committee, serving as the Central District Representative. This role provided her with valuable insights into the responsibilities of different committee positions and enhanced her leadership skills, equipping her with the knowledge and experience to support the current committee effectively.
Guiding has played a significant role in Jessica’s life, shaping her confidence and personal development. She considers it an integral part of her identity and cannot imagine life without it. Guiding has instilled in her essential life skills and has introduced her to lifelong friendships. Encouraged by her father, she has remained actively engaged in Guiding, nurturing it as a passion.
Currently, Jessica is pursuing a degree in Tourism Studies at the University of Malta. Her love for travel has led her to various international experiences, including an Erasmus+ program in Poland at the age of 18, which had a profound impact on her personal growth. Another transformative experience was her visit to Our Chalet in Switzerland, where she reconnected with the essence of Guiding. This experience deepened her appreciation for the global nature of Guiding, allowing her to engage with Girl Guides and Girl Scouts from around the world, all striving towards shared goals through diverse learning experiences.
