drill to navigation and core naval knowledge.

Opportunities for cadets to engage in a range of activities

including scuba diving, sailing, powerboating, mountain

biking and hiking. Designed to build confidence courage,

teamwork and resilience.

on leadership roles, from becoming a divisional officer to the

mess president, these opportunities develop leadership, management,

initiative and problem-solving skills.

• Personal and Team Growth:

Whether through team-building exercises or individual duties,

cadets gain self-discipline, perseverance and a strong sense

of camaraderie.
