The Northern Ireland Anchor Boy Competition is
held annually. This year the boys had to design and colour a 'Birthday
Card'. They were free to choose the picture and the message for the card.
The competition was in two categories - those in P1 & P2 whose card was to
be A4 folded and those in P3 & P4 whose card was A5 folded.
East Antrim Battalion invites entries from all
their Companies (one in each age category) which are then judged
independently and the best two are then forwarded into the Northern Ireland
Competition.
This year the winners of the East Antrim
Battalion round were
P1/P2 Robert Boyle 1st
Larne Company
P3/P4 Kyle Hutton 8th
Carrickfergus Company
The boys are awarded the 'President Cup' which
the share (6 months each).
Well done to all who entered.
"The advancement of Christ's kingdom among Boys and the promotion of habits of Obedience, Reverence, Discipline, Self-respect and all that tends towards a true Christian manliness."
