On Thursday 15th May 2025, during a scenic outdoor evening colours ceremony at T.S. Lochinvar, two of our Junior Sea Cadets were recognised for completing key developmental modules in their Sea Cadet journey.
Able Junior Cadet A Quinn was awarded the Green Badge for completing the Outdoor & Recreation modules. These modules encourage resilience, independence, and a sense of adventure — from learning about weather and shelter building to healthy lifestyle choices and navigation skills.
Junior Cadet First Class I MacRobert received the Yellow Badge after completing the Community & Citizenship modules. These activities promote personal responsibility, teamwork, and engagement with the local community, helping cadets understand their role as active citizens.
The badges were presented by Lt (SCC) Andy Malarky RMR, our Officer-in-Charge, in front of the Junior Section and Royal Marines Cadets. This moment captured the spirit of our Unit: progress through effort, learning through doing, and celebration through shared pride.
The Junior Sea Cadet Programme provides a fun, safe, and structured environment for young people ages 10 and 11. It builds confidence, leadership, and character — preparing them for life both in and out of uniform.
Bravo Zulu, Cadets Quinn and MacRobert.
