Outside our weeknight parades, we also hold a wide range of weekend activities and exercises for you to participate in. These are designed to put the skills learnt on a Wednesday night into practice – so you get the most benefit from doing as much as you can.
During our activities you’ll get the opportunity to try new things, as well as meet cadets from other cadet units in Wellington and the North Island.
Weekend activities are usually held on a Saturday, or over a whole weekend. Common activities include:
Sailing (practice and races)
Kayaking
Powerboating
Target Shooting
Regattas (skills competitions against other units, sometimes held out of Wellington)
RNZN ship visits
Sail camps
Tramping
Bushcraft camps
High ropes course
Visits to military camps and bases
Military parades
Inter-unit sports competitions
