The best job in the world with a fantastic team of people! #Outdoors #Educationwithcharacter #Credimus

Our 23 recruits made their Cadet Promise today and enrolled into the Squadron in front of family and friends! The first milestone in your cadet career, you have some amazing opportunities ahead! #Recruits #68Entry #Enrolment RAF Air Cadets Commandant RAF Air Cadets

Just finished my Christmas present from @PltOff_TRoberts. A great read from both my professional Great Schools Trust role and CFAV perspectives, which I’d highly recommend to anyone who has an input in leadership development within their AOR #NextGeneration #LeadershipDevelopment

Really informative course today to help increase successful delivery of The Duke of Edinburgh’s Award at Great Schools Trust #Credimus #Educationwithcharacter

So yesterday I received official notification of being awarded my Cadet Forces Medal for 12 years adult uniformed service in the cadet forces. I don’t do this for the medals, but it’s something to show others of my commitment to helping the youth of today #CFM #LongService

Cadets from @kingswarrington & KLAL deployed to Holcombe Moor Training Camp Northwest Rankin FCA this week, to undertake Initial Weapons Training. ‘Marksmanship is 98% Mental and 2% Physical’. – Lanny Basham instagram.com/p/CZCsB36oZSO/…

Another example of the power of the RAF Air Cadets with cadets from 2 of our sections mixing and integrating whilst sharing the life changing experience of their first flight. They certainly won’t forget it!

Some half term CPD and team bonding this evening. You know you have a good team when you choose to spend your free time with them! Great Schools Trust #development #climbing #CPD

This week we have been out running The Duke of Edinburgh’s Award training with all of our Great Schools Trust Learning skills ready for their expeditions. King's Bolton @KingsWoolston King's Leadership Academy Liverpool King's Leadership Academy Hawthornes

So today’s the day I’ve been so excited for! 24 hours of drill to raise vital funds for our great causes. If you’re able, please go to theaircadets.org/drill22 to find the donation link. Every penny counts!

Amazing amount so far! Certainly helps us keep our momentum!

This message from a parent of one of my cadets reinforces just why I volunteer. I don’t do it for praise, but sometimes you need a reminder of the positive impact you have on a young person and THAT is why I #volunteer with RAF Air Cadets

Getting stuck in to the first day of #PlatinumJubilee celebrations with a trip to Horseguards with the 1st Battalion Irish Guards #TroopingTheColour and then to The Mall to see the flypast by the Royal Air Force. What a day to be British!!!

Want to join our Personal Development team? We have a great new job on offer starting in September. ⁦King's Leadership Academy Liverpool⁩ ⁦Great Schools Trust⁩ #ASPIRE #outdooreducation tes.com/jobs/vacancy/p…

An honour to play a part in celebrating the success of such a great group of people. I wish you all the best of luck in your future endeavours! #credimus

A recent notice to my cadets summarising our main highlights from 2022. Each young person in the CCF at @KingsWoolston and wider Great Schools Trust CCF's can be proud of all they have achieved this year and hopefully go on to greater things in 2023! #credimus #whatwedo Combined Cadet Force RAF Air Cadets

So for the past few months I’ve been preparing for this, switching my Royal Coat of Arms rank slides for those of a commissioned officer with the RAF Air Cadets. It’s something I never thought I’d do, and I’ll never forget my time as an SNCO. Here’s to a new chapter!

Congratulations to the @KingsWoolston cadets who were successful in the latest round of promotions. It was also a day I got to present 4 yellow lanyards to those who have passed their Methods of Instruction course. Well done all! @ShaneIerston Great Schools Trust Tuesday Humby

A whirlwind 24 hours! Helicopter travel to London for a stay at Royal Air Force Club before #TroopingTheColour2023. I even got to catch up with my old OC 2348 Maghull ATC. All these opportunities because I took a chance and joined RAF Air Cadets at 14! #SocialMobility #Whistlestop #London

This weekend I got to see both sides of RAFAC join up to achieve something big. 70 proficiency badges across 5 courses and 3 units is quite an achievement. Let’s hope it’s a partnership that may continue for a long time! #workingtogether
