Moving on
When a Badger is approaching their 10th birthday, they will start their transfer towards becoming a Cadet. There is so much on offer for Cadets and the opportunities and experiences on offer will really help shape children into independent and confident individuals. Badgers are fully supported on this transfer period if this is something they really want to do. Remember, it's their choice.
