This information (your name, suburb and email) will then be emailed to all parents who have responded to this form. It will then be up to individual cadets/parents to make contact and arrange carpooling. Let us know if you have any problems with the link! Happy carpooling.
Picking up your Cadets at the end of night
We’ve noticed lately that there have been a number of Cadets waiting out on the roadside for an extended period before being picked up after parade. Please collect your Cadets promptly at 9.15pm – and we will do our best to ensure they are ready to go by this time. In these winter months, any cadets who are left waiting for a long period will be brought inside the building to be supervised inside, and can be collected from there.
