All boys are eligible for the Company Section from Primary 7 upwards to 6th year in Secondary School. The Company Section allows more senior boys to take part in the activities and the decisions. A chance to build friendships, a chance to make mistakes that will not be thrown back at them, where skilled staff support can present challenges fitted to the boy. Successfully achieving one challenge is great practice for the next. Boys’ Brigade awards provide incentive and ensure progression at a rate suitable to age and growing physical strength; there are leadership opportunities to release abundant energies in purposeful ways, advancing Christ’s kingdom among boys and promoting habits of obedience, reverence, discipline, and self respect. Activities include hobbies, midnight hikes, games, competitions in sport and arts. Working toward President’s and Queen’s Badges is a key feature of 4th/5th Kilmarnock Company.
