If you are moving house. you must inform the Adjutant of your new address and phone number. This also goes for any medical conditions and other personal information that the unit requires. Any questions, see your duty NCO.

New Equipment!

We have just received a grant to purchase new uniforms to replace our older ones.

We have also just received our new photocopier.

Fundraising:

We have just started our Unit TradeMe account and are now looking for items to sell to raise funds for our Unit. So, if you have items which you no longer require and wouldn't mind donating to the Unit, bring them in on Thursday night to the Parent Support Group. Please note that Fundraising is required to support our cadets so much help is greatly appreciated.
