Juniors having all the fun

Juniors having all the fun

Not sure who had the most fun this morning, our Junior Sea Cadets or the Adult Volunteers who supported them with their morning, whichever it was it was certainley a fun time.  Chocolate Concrete, Cake Pops and Cup Cake Decorating was the order of the day and is a prime example of the kind of activities our Junior Sea Cadets get up to.

If you know of a young person between 10 and 12 who would benefit and enjoy this type of activity on a Sunday morning, come down on a Tuesday night and have a look around.

Our New Leading Cadets

Our New Leading Cadets

Congratulations and well done to our 2 newest Leading Cadets.  AC's Katie and Helen travelled to Milford Haven this weekend and successfully passed their Advancement Board.  They look positively pleased with themselves and so they should, this is a tremendous achievement and it has not been easy. A lot of hard work and determination has been put into this by the cadets and staff who have supported them along the way. With their new status comes responsibility for helping to support leading the next group through.  

 A very proud Sherbourne CO and team.
