school), and Meritorious Service.
Outside trophies, such as the McBrayne Centenary Trophy (a music trophy won by the band
at least five years in succession), were also competed for on an annual basis
Although not strictly awards in the same way, HM Duke of Edinburgh Awards Scheme,
Commando, Parachute, Flying, Gliding, PT, Signals and RAF Navigational courses were all

be rewarded by 'Star Camps' (an RAF Camp where a cadet lived in the Officers Mess, and
enjoyed the luxuries of the station), and overseas Exchange visits.
