Last week\u2019s Home Training provided an exciting afternoon of adventure, challenge and teamwork for our cadets. Students took part in a series of outdoor activities, including an inflatable obstacle course, archery and rock climbing, each designed to build confidence, resilience and collaboration amongst cadets. We also welcomed Year 8s interested in cadets to trial through a variety of team building activities.<\/p>\n
Please see some reflections from current cadets:<\/p>\n
\u2018Home Training last week was incredibly enjoyable! We began the afternoon with short interactive activities in small groups alongside Year 8 students, which helped build connections and strengthen teamwork skills. Next, we challenged ourselves with rock climbing near the aquatic centre, where everyone enthusiastically cheered each other on and competed in friendly races to the top. To finish the afternoon, we went on a massive inflatable obstacle course to race others. With music playing, laughter, and lots of cheering, the atmosphere was energetic and highly competitive. It was such a fun afternoon filled with teamwork, encouragement, and fun memories for everyone involved.\u2019 \u2018Last week at MLCSACU\u2019s home training we had the opportunity to partake in some immersive activities such as archery and an obstacle course. The syndicates were taught by an archery instructor how to use a bow and arrow and competed with one another shooting at targets. We then took turns practising and improving our skills and were eventually all shooting perfect bullseyes. The next activity we did was the inflatable obstacle course where the cadets had fun racing each other. Everyone had a blast listening to music and competing with other cadets. Overall, this was an extremely enjoyable home training!\u2019 CADET REGISTRATION REMINDER<\/strong><\/p>\n A reminder that registration for the MLC School Army Cadet Unit (MLCSACU) is now open for students in Year 8 to Year 11.
