City of Auckland Army Cadets

We are a military-styled, volunteer, youth organisation for NZ's leaders of tomorrow. Officers give their time voluntarily.

We are a partnership between the Ministry of Defence, New Zealand Defence Force and the community. The New Zealand Defence Force supplies the training syllabus and expertise. Supporters help to fundraise for uniforms, equipment and trips. The training programme helps Cadets develop a positive outlook, maturity, self-confidence, initiative, teamwork, and leadership skills. It gives them many opport

unities that will benefit them in any career in the future. Contact us for information or come and see us on Wednesday nights during the school term between 6.00pm and 9.00pm. We meet at:
Auckland Army Centre
204 Great North Road, Grey Lynn

They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them.

Final Parade 10/12/25
As we begin the first school term of 2026, we take a moment to reflect on the commitment, effort, and growth shown by our cadets throughout 2025. From parade nights to exercises and courses, every challenge contributed to the skills, confidence, and resilience built along the way. The unit acknowledges the contributions made by all members and extends best wishes to those moving on. We look ahead to the year to come and welcoming new recruits as our second intake begins.
