Unit Commander's - Mission

To train the youth of tomorrow to be better leaders for the community, by providing them with a purpose, core values, safe disciplined army military and non-military training and giving them opportunities that other organisations cannot provide.

Unit Commanders - Command Philosophy

I came up through Cadets looking at Officers that gave up time and effort into making others and me who we are today. Youth are the Future of tomorrow, and I believe we need to look after our future just like someone looked after me.

Applying for Courses and Camps

When returning documents for exercise, the following proceedure needs to be followed.
 
You must correctly fill in your NZCF 8 completed all the required information.
