Every year, the unit holds its annual Senior Cadet Mess Dinner based on the Military Mess tradition. As they arrive, they are given a choice of apple or orange juice, followed by a photo in their finery. Once everyone has arrived they are invited to take their seats at the table where they then enjoy a 3 course meal cooked by Mrs B and her catering team, which is then served by the staff. After dinner it is time for Passing of the Port (Non-alcoholic), toasts and the speech. This year the speech was provide by Able Cadet Charlie. On completion, they continue to party the night away with a disco.
