In November we hosted junior cadets from all over the North west. The cadets earned modules throughout the weekend, had fun at the Maritime museum, enjoyed travelling by trains and ferrys and took part in red, blue, green and yellow modules.
All the juniors reported they had enjoyed the weekend and all worked really hard to make the weekend a success.
Well done to everyone for turning up to the remembrance parades. Everyone looked smart and remembered our fallen with pride.
As is usual the unit were split between different locations including the parade at prescot, the guard parading at the cenotaph in Huyton followed by a service for the RNA at the Navy club.
Corporal McClellan responded to an advertisement to apply to take on a leadership challenge in the Brecon Beacons, successful completion of which would lead to a level 3 Institute of Leadership and management (ILM) award in team leading. McClellan found himself on the short-list and packed his kit bag to attend for the weeks training.
While in the Brecon Beacons he enjoyed participating in challenging outdoor activities such as gorge walking, advanced map reading, leadership and command tasks, mountain climbing and canoeing. All these activities allowed him to develop practical leadership experience, decision making, communication and team leading skills. all at the unit are very proud of Corporal McClellan and his achievements, he successfully passed the course and is currently completing the theoretical elements of the ILM level 3 award. Corporal McClellan hopes this course will stand him in good stead as he hopes to attend university and then join the Armed forces as an officer in due course.
Well done to our engineering branch who did an excellent job competing in the annual marine engineering competition. An impressive 2nd place overall... Overalls back on now as some cadets are off to the national sea cadet training centre at Weymouth shortly to gain a 1st class qualification and continue working towards their Level 2 Marine Engineering BTEC.
