24.01.2022 REGISTER // FRONT ROW SEAT FOR A BETTER AAFC FUTURE We asked for feedback. Our members asked for change. And you’re going to see EXACTLY what the results are; the good, the bad, and the ugly. Please REGISTER your attendance in advance:... JOIN US: Monday 20JUL2020, 2000H AEST. https://us02web.zoom.us//register/WN_OZKqOjMOS6it3teApBPcIA At the end of 2019 a survey was released to all Air Force Cadet adult supervisors titled AAFC People Engagement Survey. It was important for our members and our Senior Leadership Team, to see an open and honest sharing of opinions and experiences to determine if we were living up to our aims and values as an organisation. This Staff webinar will deliver ALL of your contributions. Please join WGCDR(AAFC) Paul Hughes, WGCDR(AAFC) Darren Banfield and myself as we deliver this feedback, together with the key recommendations that have been developed.

19.01.2022 Extract from information circular released on CEA yesterday. Update on the suspension of cadet activities due to COVID-19. After a review of the National situation all three cadet Service Programs (Australian Navy Cadets, Australian Army Cadet and the Australian Air Force Cadets) have agreed to suspension of all ADF Cadet facetoface activities, including any International activities, until further notice. The cancelation includes all... School Based Units activity, conducted internal to the school as part of normal curriculum. The full notice from DGCADETS-AF is available on CEA. We will be focusing on a return to operations plan so that when a restart date becomes known we can start strongly. We will shortly be sharing details of a National Webinar program which will start off soon with the first run including myself and the Director General. I thought I would share this photo from my time as a Cadet. This was CUO course 1993 at Amberley. It reminded me that memories and experiences you have in cadets are forever cherished. We will return stronger.

02.01.2022 Over many years ANZAC Day has been supported and commemorated by our organisation through ceremonial parades country wide. ANZAC Day is a meaningful way of showing thanks to our ANZAC’s, as well as all men and women who have and continue to serve our country. Despite the ongoing challenges we face through the global crises of COVID19 we encourage all Cadets and Staff to participate in the ANZAC Day Driveway Vigil that has been initiated by RSL Branches across Australia. We believe that it is important to adapt and evolve through these uncertain times by taking part in a collective Dawn Service, standing in your driveway, on your patio or balcony at 0600hrs on ANZAC Day.
