About this outing
Ballysillan Youth for Christ, known as the BlueHouses, is at 50–56 Benview Park. Its youth work welcomes children and young people from all backgrounds and abilities and combines recreational, educational, social and faith-based support. The Junior Drop In is for ages 7–11 in P4–P7; Intermediate Drop In is for ages 11–14 in Year 8–10. Choose the group matching the child’s school stage rather than treating the building as an unsupervised public play space. Call 028 9071 4255 or email ballysillanyfc@thebluehouses.org about a first visit, registration and current arrangements.
