Our Sections

The Company Section offers a programme that is full and varied, with activities to suit all levels of ability. The aim is to promote co-operation and teamwork, whilst at the same time allowing Boys to be individuals. These activities will be suited for the individual Boy’s own level of ability. The Company Section Awards Scheme is made up of 5 core elements. These are:

  • Adventure
    - camping, expedition, discovery, mountain biking, orienteering.
  • Community
    - conservation, crime prevention, first aid, fire prevention, road safety, health and fitness.
  • Interests
    - arts, crafts, hobbies, communications, music.
  • Physical
    athletics, swimming, physical recreation.
  • Brigade Leadership
    - leadership, Christian faith.

This scheme actively encourages Boys to explore and learn new activities and to learn individually from this as a whole person. Physical activities feature in our programme and these are aimed at the ability of all Boys. Boys can work towards advanced awards, such as the Queen’s Badge (top award a Boy can be awarded) and there may be the chance to undertake the Duke of Edinburgh’s Award. On a Battalion basis we hold events and competitions which Boys can take part in. We have a football league and there will be a chance to meet with Boys from Edinburgh and the surrounding area. There may also be the chance for Boys to go away for a weekend as a group.
