 For Parents and Cadets

Trafalgar Day

Celebrated on October 21st, Trafalgar Day marks the day on which Britain triumphed in The Battle of Trafalgar in 1805. This historic Naval battle was fought off the Cape of Trafalgar, offshore from Cadiz, Spain, with forces from France & Spain clashing with Britain.

The Battle of Trafalgar made Lord Horatio Nelson one of Britain's most famous war heroes.

Every year the Sea Cadet Corps lead the Trafalgar Day Parade through Trafalgar Square in London, the Cadets have the honour of flying the Naval flag at the event.

Further details on Events listings in the 'EVENTS CALENDAR ' will be given nearer to the event, if you have any questions then please ask a member of staff on a parade night.

I am sure many of you are aware that we are holding a reunion event on Saturday 27 October 2012. This will be at the Royal Naval Association, New Street Basingstoke.

 The purpose of this event is to establish contact with ex members of the unit who may be able to support us in some way.

All current members are welcome- Cadets, Parents, Staff, Trustees & Supporters.

All Cadets MUST be accompanied by a responsible adult to gain admission- No Exceptions will be made. Staff & other unit members will not be responsible for them. This Is Not A Cadet Activity.

There will be a disco, quiz & raffle; we also hope to provide a light finger buffet & the RNA bar will be open.

We would ask if parents could once again help by providing some food & maybe a raffle prize. We are approaching local companies for prizes & if anyone has any contacts that might be willing to donate we have a standard letter available in both digital & hard format.

Look forward to seeing you all there......

Very well done to OC Joseph Smith for winning the Peregrine Trophy for the Sea cadets, it is awarded for

" The single best photograph of a single theme that combines technical excellence, creativity and impact ".
