Marine Training Corps Ore

Training will be split over training evenings, field days, some weekend camps and courses, and Summer Camp. Parade evenings take place twice a week. This provides training across a number of different areas, which is then enhanced during field days and weekend training camps, where cadets can spend longer periods of time developing a particular skill.

If you're a fan of action and adventure, love sports and getting to know people then you're in the right place.

Our aim is to enable the development of personal responsibility, leadership and self-discipline.
