Chilled night at BB with Anchors and Juniors. Our younger boys kept out of the sun by decorating glider planes then constructed and flew them. There were some impressive flights, some of the planes even completed loop the loops before gliding to a stop.

Finally we cooled off in the last 10 minutes with a water fight. Hannah and Jack joined in (although they regretted it as they became targets for the boys!)

Next week we are back at Church for our Presentation Evening. We will email in the next few days with more details.

Last night our Company Section and Seniors made the most of the nice weather (and Graeme's pizza oven) and made pizza ๐Ÿ•.

The results were amazing (and the rest of the Leaders were very pleased that there was enough for them to enjoy too!)

Well done boys!

As we reach Good Friday, we remember that "God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son" (John 3:16) - and rejoice in knowing that Jesus' death on the cross was not the end of the story ๐Ÿ™

Our Anchors and Juniors were busy over the last 2 weeks creating beautiful Mother's Day cards and heart decorations for their Mums.

We hope all Mum's are having a special day today and loved their gifts.

On Saturday we hosted the Battalion Juniors Competitions Day at Emmanuel. We only had a small team of 3 but they were all superstars as you can see from all the certificates they earned!

They came...
3rd in the Handwriting Competition*
2nd in the Reading Competition, Jenga Challenge and Artwork Competition*
1st in Inspection, the Quiz and the Challenge Room

*the Handwriting and Artwork were completed by all our Juniors (even if they weren't there on the day).

Our Boys' amazing effort meant that 3rd Reading also won the Competitions Day Trophy!

Well Done Boys! We are very proud of you and all your hard work. Well done to all the other Companies from our Battalion who turned up and took part.

Thank you also to our Judges who came along to oversee the various competitions and challenges.

Tonight Anchors and Juniors learnt about David & Goliath - we watched a video of the story, created some amazingly creative artwork (in preparation for our upcoming Competitions Day) and then tried to defeat Goliath using paper cups "slingshots".

We had some very close calls and some amazing shots. Well done Boys!!!
