Registration and enrolment for 918 Griffon Squadron is currently open. The first step in the enrolment process is to sign up and attend our open house. As we are stepping out of COVID-19, we will be returning to our traditional in-person open house.

 

The open house session introduces the air cadet program and 918 Griffon Squadron to prospective cadets and their parents, as well as having an open Q&A to help address questions or concerns. This allows prospective cadets and their parents to confirm their interest in the program before handing in completed enrolment forms.
