More than 9,500 young people participate in over 190 cadet units throughout the State and involve around 1100 volunteer instructors. Cadets participate in a range of activities that develop leadership and life skills, and a sense of community responsibility and service. Secondary school students taking part in Cadets WA will typically undertake adventurous training, camping, hiking, sporting activities and exercise their leadership potential. An additional grant was made to the Duncraig Bush Rangers for them to continue with their Salinity Project. With a good stock of pots, trays and shade cloth already in hand, the funds donated after the 2009 Show will be enough for the group to purchase soil and seed for 4 years. |
