Boys' Brigade

Our Core

The 53^rd Boys’ Brigade Company strongly believes in servanthood leadership and our core values include obedience, reverence, discipline and self-respect. Our BB Boys are nurtured to be faithful in what is entrusted to them and to be committed to the organisation. We train with utmost excellence and take pride in what we do.

Our Company Achievements

For 2019 to 2020, our company has once again attained the James Milner Fraser Gold Honour Roll, which is awarded to the top BB Companies in Singapore. This year, due to the COVID-19 situation, BB Blaze Adventure Race 2020 was cancelled. BB Blaze is a grueling competition where the Boys have to run over 20 kilometres, kayak, rock climb, abseil and complete obstacle courses along the way.

Our Boys' Achievements

Despite the circuit breaker, we are proud to announce that we have two BB Boys who received the Founder's Award this year. The Founder's Award is the pinnacle of awards achievable at the Secondary School level.

Our Holistic Curriculum

Our BB camps are specially tailored to suit the needs of our BB Boys. Our Recruit and Company Training Camps, including our Leadership Training and Development Camps focus on building heightened levels of tenacity and teamwork. They provide opportunities for the holistic development of our BB Boys as we observe them engaging in active collaboration and progress to become more confident individuals.

To further help them in this holistic development, we send our BB Boys for proper certification in Sports Climbing, Kayaking and Lifesaving. Moreover, we conduct intentional mentoring programmes for selected BB Boys to stretch them even further.

Service to the community is another important component of our BB programme. Towards the end of every year, we are actively involved in the BB Share-a-Gift project. The Boys developed empathy and show kindness to the underprivileged.

Finally, to help the BB Boys face the Volatile, Uncertain, Complex and Ambiguous (VUCA) world, we constantly engage the parents and guardians too. We host purposeful engagements during our camps and conferences, and even partner with the BBSS Parents Support Group (PSG) at times. We are currently exploring programming in our BB curriculum and social entrepreneurship as we strive to stay current with the trends in the education scene.
