This evening, cadets enjoyed a Halloween party. There was a murder mystery to be solved, with teams of cadets looking at clues and asking instructors questions to determine who killed the CO.

Once the murder had been solved and the CO had been spotted alive and well, it was time to have sand easy with Halloween-themed treats.

Afterwards, there were games, including unwinding toilet rolls to make mummies and an egg-and-spoon race. Well done to all the cadets who dressed up, and to the pumpkins too.

⚓️ CHALLENGE ACCEPTED! 🪙

A few weeks ago, we had a fantastic visit from Dave Gibson, who threw down the ultimate challenge: a puzzle all about his epic Royal Navy career! 🧩⚓️

Our Juniors, Cadets, and staff have been working incredibly hard to crack the code. With the CO away on leave for a couple of weeks, the anticipation was building... but the wait is finally over!

The CO checked the answers (which Dave had safely left in his keeping) and we are thrilled to announce our winners! One from the Junior Sea Cadets section, one from the cadet section and one instructor. 🏆

They were awarded these brilliant Royal Navy Challenge Coins—custom-designed medallions featuring unique ship, submarine, squadron, or shore establishment crests. A true piece of naval tradition to keep forever! 🪙🚢

Congratulations to the winners, and a massive thank you to Dave Gibson for keeping us all on our toes! 🤔⚓️

Tonight, cadets were using the Morse keys that were very kindly donated by an ex-cadet who is now an RN veteran.

Can you work out their message?

⚓ I WAS A CADET, NOW I AM…

For National Cadets Week, we’d love to hear from former Sittingbourne & Milton Sea Cadets and show today’s cadets just how far a Sea Cadet journey can take you.

Since 1941, generations of young people have passed through our unit. Some went on to remain involved with Sea Cadets, while others pursued careers in the Armed Forces, emergency services, engineering, education, public service — or took their journey in a completely different direction.

But wherever life took you, did your time as a cadet help shape the person you are today?

âš“ Did you carry the skills, confidence and resilience you developed as a cadet into your career or everyday life?

🤝 Are some of your friendships and memories from your cadet days still with you?

📸 We want to hear your story!

Complete the sentence:

👉 “I was a cadet, now I am…”

Tell us in the comments what you went on to do, and if you have one, share an old cadet photo too. We’d love to see how far our cadets have travelled — and inspire the next generation to see where their own journey could take them.

Once a cadet, always part of the crew. âš“

This National Cadet Week, we’re celebrating our amazing cadets and the dedicated Cadet Force Adult Volunteers who make it all possible!

At Sittingbourne unit, we’re proud that five of our instructors started their journeys as cadets at TS Wyvern!
Each has followed a different path. One went on to serve in the Royal Navy before returning as a volunteer, others continued their journey straight into volunteering after ageing out of cadets, while some took time away before returning to give something back.
Photos of these instructors as cadets below!

Not all our instructors were cadets themselves and joined as adults bringing a wealth of knowledge and skills from other backgrounds. Their contributions have helped our cadets learn, grow and reach their full potential.

What brings all our volunteers together is shared passion for supporting young people and making a positive difference in their lives.

Across the UK’s Cadet Forces, Adult Volunteers generously give their time to mentor, encourage and inspire the next generation. Through their dedication, young people gain confidence, build friendships and achieve things they never thought possible.

This National Cadet Week, we’d like to say a huge thank you to all our incredible volunteers including UMT members past and present. Your time, commitment and enthusiasm truly make a difference.
