Royal Navy Cadets prepare for Field Day

 

On Sunday 2 February, 18 of the senior Royal Navy Cadets, led by Warrant Officer Zak, began their preparation for the March Field Day by taking part in a reconnaissance hike in the Ampthill area.

 

They put their navigation skills to the test and checked out several routes that will be used by the teams of the younger cadets later this term during a night hike. It was an excellent opportunity for them to develop their skills in assessing risk, planning ahead and leading a group, whilst also providing time to get out in the fresh air, enjoy the countryside and bond in their groups.
