On Sunday 10th November cadets from our Unit joined members of the Shirley British Legion, cadets from the Royal Air Force and Army , along with Guides, Brownies, Cubs and Scouts in the Annual parade to commemorate those men and women who have lost their lives in all conflicts since the start of the First World War.
Well done to all who took part and to the organisers of the parade. Lovely service and lots of great comments on how smart the cadets and staff were. Well done guys
The annual district parade in remembrance of the Battle of Trafalgar took place in Leamington Spa – organised by Leamington Sea Cadet Unit.
The District Officer commented “It was heartening to see so many smart and well disciplined Cadets on parade and all the RNA were full of praise for them all. There was an extremely large platoon of Junior Sea Cadets who were proud to be there and were so very well behaved”.
Cadets, Staff and parents paid a visit to the national memorial arboretum in Alrewas Staffordshire and viewed the various sites remembering those who lost their lives during conflicts.
An informative and emotional day was spent by all.

VOLUNTEER litter pickers collected 16 sacks of rubbish - in just two hours - from around Dicken's Heath as part of the annual clear-up. The team gave up their time on Saturday to clear rubbish from the pavements and bushes, plant bulbs and trim bushes in the village. This year Shirley Sea Cadets joined Councillor Linda Brown and her team of volunteers to plant bulbs ready for the spring. |
On Saturday 7th September cadets, Staff and supports congregated in Solihull Town centre for their annual Flag Day street collection.
Fine dry weather accompanied all who attended and resulted in donations totalling £734.30 and 100% of this total will be used to maintain the equipment used by the Cadets and the Unit premises.
On the same day members of the Sub-mariners association were holding their annual mixed sub-mariners dinner at the St John’s Hotel and invited us to attend to make a collection.
We would therefore like to thank those ex –submariners who attended their annual dinner for their individual donations which totalled £126.
