Maldives Girl Guide Centenary

I just got my hand on this large souvenir sheet, that is supposed to mark the centenary of girl guiding. I am not sure of even the year of issue, because the Maldives post office website has listed a different issue in 2010 for this event; the rubric on the sheet indicates that celebration of girl guiding would be held every 10 April of 2010, 2011 and 2012. I would welcome any help on this matter. The relevance of this souvenir sheet here, is that the lower half of the sheet background shows underwater scenery in blue, with the silhouettes of 2 scuba divers.
