During their time in Anchors, the boys will work towards gaining badges for their armband (part of the Boys' Brigade uniform). The topics covered are varied and include practical skills, like tying shoe laces and even a bit of cookery!

We also have an annual display evening, held at at the Church in May, where the Company puts on an evening of events to entertain parents and families.

Being a Christian organisation we encourage all of our boys to attend Church at least once a month - the second Sunday in most months when we hold our parade services. These services are aimed at families and the boys really enjoy them.
