If you think students spend all their spare time avoiding studying, going out with their mates and having a good time then you'd be right. Well our student bloggers do anyway. While they assure us they don't slack on the study, they've got a lot to answer for when it comes to enjoying themselves while volunteering.

What the cadets really think

i figured you're all probably really bored fo listening to me ramble on atm and as i am a bit stuck for ideas ( comment me if you have any) i thought i would ask one of our cadets what they thought about st john.

"...St John Cadets is fun and interesting. It's a good way to meet young people and make friends. It allows me to learn new skills and achieve something, outside of school. So it is good for in the future, something to put on your CV. Some of the skills that we learn are important to society like the first aid courses; it is good to be able to go to public duties and help people..."

Just want to say thank you to our lovely cadet who wrote that and say it's not just me that likes st john look - other normal sane people do to !! i told you - it's really gd!

be back soon sammy x x

My future with St John

I am kinda writing this in response to a comment i recieved from Natalie so if anyone else has a question they want to know i will answer them all.

Right now i am in sixth form studying for A-levels, and then i plan to go to university to study psychology. I will be moving away for uni and so i won't be able to carry on helping out at my current cadet divisionwhich is very bad and i have already been told they're going to kindap me so i can't leave ! i am certainly not looking forward to leaving.

I plan to find another cadet divison close to my university and help out there as i find ti so rewarding, and visit my current one whenever i go back home for holidays, so i will definately stay in touch with them all. I would also like to join the adult/uni st john ambulance divions where ever i end up going to uni so i can keep my skills topped up and make sure i dont forget everything.

hope this answered ur question and i am sorry u lost contact with ur divison

take care, love sammy x x
