BUSH RANGER CADETS

Bush Rangers WA is a youth-based conservation and community development program. It supports young Western Australians to take an active role in the conservation of the natural environment and better understand the mechanisms for its management. The program offers opportunities to undertake personal development while developing conservation skills and knowledge through involvement in practical nature conservation projects. Projects can be school-based, within the local community, and others can take cadets to some amazing locations and landscapes across the state! Bush Rangers WA encourages young people to take action for positive change!

At JFSC, cadets will have the opportunity to contribute to environmental conservation programs; develop first aid, bush craft, survival and navigation skills; learn about managing national parks, state forests and other locations; help save threatened plant and animal species and their habitats; develop leadership and interpersonal skills, including participating in drill sessions; work with community groups and local primary schools and participate in a range of camps and excursions. The program runs after school every Monday from 3.15 to 5.00pm and it costs nothing to be a cadet. The uniform, activities and even camps are free for all cadets. Further information can be found at http://internal.johnforrest.wa.edu.au/bushrangers/ or by emailing Mr Cummings.
