Boys Brigade

The Boys Brigade, 7th Singapore Company

The 7^th Singapore Company was the last Company of The Boys’ Brigade in Singapore to be formed before the Second World War. It was started in 1937 and had their first enrolment service on 19 January 1938. Based at St Andrew’s School, the first Captain was Revd AC Parr. Revd Canon RK Sorby Adams was the first Chaplain. Mr George Ee Cheng Hoe and Mr WA Ponnial were the original Lieutenants. Mr George Ee would take over the Captaincy in 1940.

The Company’s crest has the BB Anchor superimposed on the shield of St Andrew. We therefore draw inspiration from the strength of both Anchor and Shield: Sure and Stedfast in character building, while moving Up and On for the honour of God.
