Thank you to all our willing boys, dutiful officers /helpers and wonderful parents!! Safe to say it was a bit silly, but most importantly - Jesus is always at the heart of everything we do. A great way to reflect, and celebrate another great year at 3rd Ballyclare BBNI!!

🔵 Busy weeks at BB 🔵

Over the last couple of weeks our Company & Junior sections have been learning life long skills - wiring plugs and some Ulster Scots history and language! We tried to ‘toss the caber’, welly wanging, hurling the haggis and made some soda bread pizza!

A great start to 2026, for our boys!

And what’s a space experience, without pizza?! 🍕

Good Luck to our P7 boys who sat the SEAG exam and are receiving their results this morning!

You are more than what is written down, your best will always be good enough!

We hope you trust God’s actions and can transition into this exciting new chapter, with him at the helm.

SURE AND STEADFAST ⚓️

We are very proud of you!

Praying over all our Juniors receiving SEAG results today! 🌱

Your results are just the beginning of a wonderful journey God has planned for your life. Every step, every opportunity, every new door. He uses it all for good.
