Today one of our Junior groups learned about Remembrance Sunday and why we wear the Poppy in remembrance.

Rowing Regatta 2021

Rowing Regatta 2021

5 teams of Cadets from across the Jersey Sea Cadet Unit's 3 divisions, Port, Starboard and Royal Marine (RM), took part in their annual rowing regatta in near perfect conditions in St Helier Harbour.  With the two seaman divisions providing a Senior and Junior team and the RM Cadets having just a senior team, they participated in 6 races throughout the morning.  

Many of the cadets were taking part in the interdivisional regatta for the first time and did particularly well.  The hours of rowing practice across the year were obviously of benefit.  

Cadet Harry, one of Jersey's newer cadets taking part for the first time said:-  "I really enjoyed the rowing competition today.  It was really good fun and a great experience competing against other teams".

Results time combined across both races:-

Royal Marine A - 9.05 minutes

Starboard B - 9.49 minutes

Port A - 10.56 minutes

Port B - 11.08 minutes

Starboard A - 11.13 minutes

Royal Marine B - No time to count

Winners A Team = Royal Marine  - BZ

Winners B Team = Starboard  - BZ

JUNIORS STEM ACTIVITY

JUNIORS STEM ACTIVITY - GEODESIC DOME

Today the Juniors became construction engineers and had fun with long cocktail sticks and marshmallows to create geodesic domes similar to the much larger scale domes you see at places like the the Eden Project in Cornwall

They explored the thinking behind the design of a geodesic dome and learned the advantages and disadvantages of using different shapes to make structures.

........................ But the big question is...................what happened to all the Marshmallows??

Well done Juniors. BZ
