🎃 Hallowe'ensday Juniors 🎃

Party night tonight for the Wednesday Juniors, with some fantastic costumes!

We played Mummies, Ghost in the Graveyard, Doughnut Hunt, and Apple Dooking! The boys also painted their very own spooky pumpkins, some really scary designs 😱🎃 👻 🦇 🐈‍⬛ 🧟

All that's left is to wish the boys a safe Hallowe'en on Saturday when they go trick-or-treating 🍬 🍭 🍫

The Thursday night anchor boys and junior section returned this week with us learning all about different mazes.
First the boys solved different mazes on paper ranging from easy to very tricky.
Afterwards the boys paired up and had to guide their partner through a maze while they were blindfolded.

Congratulations to this week’s boy of the week Reuben⚓️.

🔵⚓ Wednesday Anchors & Juniors ⚓🔵

Tonight the Wednesday Anchors had a great time playing all sorts of different games led by Stuart, who is currently completing his King's Badge.

A huge well done to Callum for being this week's Anchor of the Week! 🌟🌟

The Wednesday Juniors also enjoyed playing some games led by Stuart, but even more than that, they got to make their own pizza 🍕🍕! A mixed set of choices for toppings, but everyone enjoyed it, and we look forward to what other cooking we might do this year...

Our Thursday night Anchor Boys and Junior Section enjoyed a fun night full of games. As Shepards we tried to make sure all our lost sheep were back in the pen. We also enjoyed a fun game of bowls as well. We ended the night as we usually do with a game of dodgeball.

We hope everyone enjoys their week off and see you all when we are back ⚓️

🔵 Wednesday Juniors 🔵

Tonight the Wednesday Juniors spent some time considering harvest, it's importance and what we may receive from the harvest.

The boys considered how thankful we are for the farmers and the hardwork they put in all year round to ensure we have a healthy supply of fruit and vegetables all year round!

Lastly, the boys then considered other things in their life they may be thankful for... Pets, the BB's, God, friendship and a variety of other things which make our daily lives that much better. For all of these things, we are thankful!

The officers... Well this week they're thankful because it was our last night of this half of the term! Next week the Wednesday Juniors are off as the school's have their October break. Happy relaxing, and we'll see you after a well deserved week off!

⚓ Wednesday Anchors ⚓

Is it a liquid??? Is it a solid???

It's both!?

Tonight the Wednesday Anchors got messy making ooblek! They all made their own fun colours and we had some really different textures, some runny, some slimy and some really solid. The best oobleks were runny when left alone, but solid when rolled about - how peculiar!

The night ended with some of our favourite games.

We'll done to this week's 'Anchor of the Week'! Some really excellent work was seen tonight.

Lots of local BB folks involved in this event!

. Drama Kirk presents -
Gospel in a Day

Join Drama Kirk on Saturday 14th November as they mark their tenth birthday!

'Gospel in a Day' will celebrate the gospel in Drama Kirk-style, staging the scriptures. Focusing on the gospel of Luke, we will start at the beginning at 10am and work through scene by scene, until we complete the gospel and continue to Pentecost, the birth of the church.

Each scene will be presented in a different style, including drama, comedy and music. We'll draw on a variety of scripts we've used over the last decade, including the five different passion plays we've presented, dramatised walks, Bob Hartman's Rhyming Bible and an array of sketches. We'll also introduce new material, with many scenes specially written for the occasion. Never thought you'd see DCI Taggart in the Gospels? Think again!

Audience are welcome to come and go as they please, with refreshments available throughout the day.

Saturday 14th November, 10am onwards, Hamilton Old Parish Church, Strathmore Road, Hamilton.

Join us, and see even more of the Gospel come to life!
