In St James’s we have a great Company of over 85 girls.
The Captain and Officers have all come up through the Company and have a total of 204 years service between them.
A wide variety of subjects is covered in the Company and the badge work is split into 4 sections:-
Spiritual

Service
All ages enjoy craft, baking, games, drama and lots more.
We have outings, visits to places of interest, pantomimes and many other places.
Some of the places we have visited recently include:-
Wacky Workshop in Portrush
Belfast Zoo where we saw the animals being fed, picnicked and made peacock head bands
Stormont to see the Queen on her Jubilee tour

The Titanic Quarter to name but a few.
So as you can see there is something to suit everyone.
