ADF Visit
Year 10-12 students were recently presented with introductory information about the ADF pathway after College. SGT Kingaby and CPL West discussed entry options and expectations of personnel within the ADF. Our students asked excellent questions and utilised the opportunity of having these experienced personnel in front of them. If an ADF career interests you visit ADF Careers for further information.
