Juniors Programme


An exciting array of activities has been planned for Boys in the Juniors Programme. Through weekly parades and camps, Boys are developed in the following aspects:

  • Global Awareness
Boys connect with the rich history and legacy of The Boys' Brigade (BB) as a local, regional and global movement, and develop a personal sense of mission as a member of the organisation.

  • Community Spiritedness
Boys explore the various societal needs present in the community while working together to plan and execute a community service project. Through this aspect, Boys develop empathy while caring for the society around them. Closer to their community, Boys are able to focus on family values through the BB's partnership with Focus on the Family Singapore as the Boys build a strong foundation for building and deepening familial relationships.

  • Personal Mastery
Boys identify with mental and physical disciplines like time management, squad drills and reflection, to grow personal effectiveness and preparedness.

  • Leadership
Boys discover the basic building blocks of relational influence in the foundational leadership habits of encouragement, social initiative, trustworthiness and service to others.

When I was appointed as a Squad Leader, I took on more responsibilities, from helping my squad with tasks like correcting drill movements to larger responsibilities such as guiding my peers to pitch a tent. When I first joined The Boys’ Brigade in Primary Three, I struggled with certain tasks, such as performing a proper right turn during drill. However, after a few parades, I developed new friendships with other BB Boys who helped me to improve my various skills. Through this, our friendships deepened. I learned to step up when opportunities arose and not to be afraid to take initiative. This newfound confidence extended beyond BB, and I began helping out more at home, taking the initiative with chores.
