We are in the NPCC for 4 years or more!So,other than drill,PT and campcraft,what are we going to do.
This includes drill,PT and campcraft!
All cadets go through a 4/5 year course in their Secondary school, depending on their academic stream. Trainings may be once or twice weekly, varying from unit to unit.
Physical TrainingThis training session is meant to build up the cadet's physical fitness standard, with activities like running, push ups, situps, pull ups and resistance activities. All these activities push the cadets to try their very best to complete the task at hand, ignoring the pain and difficulty involved. Physical training sessions also aim to build up the cadets teamwork and camarederie, with rules such as 'Leave no man behind, run as a squad' and 'One for all, all for one' constantly emphasized on during running sessions.
Uniformed trainingThis training session takes place in full uniform and consists of drills and campcraft lessons. A typical session will include an Opening Parade at the start of training for a Teacher Officer to inspect the unit. Beforehand, a Uniform Inspection would have been carried out to ensure that the cadets' uniforms are in tip-top condition. After the Opening Parade, the unit breaks up into their respective academic levels, each level taken by a Drill Instructor. A Drill session follows, to train the cadets' discipline and alertness in responding to the commands. Drills taught vary greatly, from basic foot drills to baton and rifle drills.
After the drill session, cadets change into their PT kit for a campcraft session. Campcraft sessions are practical lessons on knot tying, lashings, tent making and pioneering.
The end of training is marked with a Closing Parade. This parade is a debrief of the cadets, and announcements on important matters of the unit.
Classroom LessonsClassroom lessons are occasionally organised by Teacher Officers or Police Officers to give cadets an insight into Police work or NPCC. These lessons can range from 'History of NPCC' to 'Crime Prevention Measures' to 'The 999 Emergency System'. Classroom lessons are meant to equip the cadets with a basic knowledge of the Singapore Police Force, and also basic crime prevention skills, which are very useful in daily life.
MarksmanshipCadets will get the opportunity to fire the .22 Smith & Wesson revolver and the Colt M16 rifle (NPCC Sea cadets only) in their NPCC life, as part of Marksmanship training. Weapon training sessions are always accompanied by a Police Officer, with an Officer to Cadet ratio of 1:1. This is to ensure the safety of the cadets involved in the shooting sessions. Shooting competitions are regularly organised between the different units, and cadets that have reached a benchmarked standard of shooting proficiency will receive a Marksmanship badge.
Cadet Inspectors and Officers have the opportunity to fire the .38 Taurus Model 85 revolver, which is the standard issue revolver used by the Singapore Police Force.
Proficiency BadgesProficiency Badges are awarded to cadets who have acquired a benchmarked level of proficiency in certain areas, be it Drills, Campcraft or Marksmanship. Badges are also awarded to cadets who have completed a course and taken a test on it, such as Crime Prevention, Total Defence or Narcortics.
When cadets are in the middle of their Secondary 3 academic year, they will be appointed as Non - Commissioned Officers. A course may be organised to determine their level of competency and their position as a CL [formerly known as NCO].
All cadets will pass out (be discharged) before they take their GCE 'O' Level Examinations or equivalent.
Selected senior cadets who are keen on contributing to the NPCC after their Secondary education are sent for the Cadet Inspectors' Basic Training Course.

1. Take your Kiwi polish and take the lid off.
2. Fill the lid with room temperature water.
3. Take your Kiwi cloth and wind part of it around your index finger.
4. Apply a generous coat of polish to your boot, applying it in a circular pattern.
5. Leave your boots for approximately 15-20 minutes or over night.
6. Dip you Kiwi cloth-covered finger into the water.
7. Dip the same finger into the polish but don't put to much polish on. A tiny amount will do.
8. Go over your boots in the same circular pattern and work them until there are no water dropplets left on your boot.
Thanks to Shae for this!
