Unit Support Committee

Information for Parents and Caregivers

Every local Sea Cadet unit has a Support Group of parents that are commonly referred to as the Unit (or Parent) Support Committee.

ALL parents or guardians of Cadets (and any interested persons) are invited to be members of the Support Committee and attend meetings which are held at TS Achilles Sea Cadet Unit on the second Thursday of each month (during school terms) starting at 7pm.

The Committee is responsible for management of:
  • Unit Finances (eg: setting the level of joining fees and annual donations to be paid by Cadets)

  • Fundraising (for purchase of and repairs to Unit resources including, but not limited to, boats, safety equipment and vehicles   to transport cadets/vessels to sailing, camps or other events)

  • Assisting with the recruitment of Sea Cadets and Sea Cadet Officers through advertising campaigns, signage etc.

  • Supporting Sea Cadet Officers and other staff in the development of the youth that attend the Unit.


The primary elected roles within the committee are
  • Chairperson

  • Treasurer  

  • Secretary  

  • Committee members

Parents and Caregivers of Cadets are also invited to participate and encouraged to attend Committee meetings.  All roles are voluntary.

Elections for Committee roles are held at the annual TS Achilles AGM.  Positions that become vacant during the year will be advertised via the TS Achilles Yahoo email group and Minutes of Committee meetings.  Vacancies are filled through voting by members of the Parent Support Committee.


Meetings

Each meeting follows a formal Agenda with Minutes taken and distributed via email.  Ideas for discussion are always welcome from Parents and Caregivers of Cadets.  Talk to a Sea Cadet Officer or bring your ideas to the meeting.  The Committee usually meets in the Unit Wardroom on the second Thursday of each month from 7pm at the same time as the TS Achilles Sea Cadets parade.

ALL parents, guardians and friends are eligible and encouraged to attend these meetings.



Please Note: 
  • Attending a Parent Support Committee meeting does not mean you are going to get voted into a ‘permanent’ role.  
  • Every idea and suggestion presented is appreciated and will be given due consideration.

Your ideas can help shape the enjoyment and learning experience of your Sea Cadet.....

We look forward to welcoming you to a meeting of the TS Achilles Parent Support Committee.
