The Youth programme is safe, social and supportive. Your child will gain leadership skills, create friendships, and learn how to care for others. But most importantly, they’ll have fun!
Confidence
Confidence and self-esteem come with learning new skills. Watch their confidence grow as they learn to care for others.
Knowledge
Your child will learn first aid and valuable life skills fit for their age, in a fun and engaging environment.
Giving back
We encourage young people to give back to their community, and we love to see how much they
learn from being part of it.
Penguin Programme (school years 0 to 6) 
Our penguins meet once a week, learning through fun games and activities that teach honesty, courage and fair play. If they work hard and get nine badges, they'll be Super Penguins!

Our cadets learn first aid and emergency training, develop leadership and decision-making skills. Cadets meet once a week and are grouped according to their age and needs. They work towards getting badges, with the goal of earning their Grand Prior's Award.
