What we do
The programme is varied, and includes craftwork, discovery about nature, new skills, cooking, games, gym, first aid, drill, band, singing and so on. We also spend time learning about Jesus, and about how to deal with life and its challenges. Our ministers, Rev'ds Peter and Catherine Ball, provide us with valuable support in all our activites.
Brigades Band
We are very proud of our band. We practice regularly and provide music tuition and parade through the village for Parade Services, Remembrance Sunday and on request of local organisations.
Camp
One of the highlights of our year is camp, which is attended by the older boys and girls. Every July our leaders work hard to provide a wide and exciting promgramme of activities whist we are away, and ensuring our safety at all times. At camp we are able to enjoy spending time together, learn new skills which usually involve lots of water or high heights, learn more about God - and have good fun at the same time!
