5 – 8 YEARS
The emphasis is on fun and programme activities include games, crafts, stories and opportunities to learn and share in new experiences. Throughout their time in the Anchor Section, children can gain badges and recognition
for their participation in the programme.
The Programme
Through our programme we want to provide children and young people with opportunities to develop skills, to be creative, to have adventures, to try new things and to make a difference.
As a young person starts out on their BB adventure, we believe they are entitled
… to experience new challenges. To develop and use existing skills, to learn new skills, to develop confidence, to have a sense of achievement and receive recognition.
… to be listened to and have a say. To have their opinions listened to and acted upon wherever possible.
… to be respected and valued. To be trusted and given responsibility, to be treated as you would like to be treated, to experience a safe environment, to be individually appreciated, to have the opportunity to
be part of the wider community.
… to have fun. To be able to come to BB because they enjoy it and want to.
… to have the opportunity to develop a personal Christian faith. To be able to explore their own faith, at their own speed, in a way that is approachable and meets their individual needs.
