What lessons have you learned from cheerleading?
G: I've learned that, together we work, together we fall, we work as a team or we don't work at all.
B: To me when you are a cheerleader you need to be exactly what the name says, a leader. When you are a cheerleader you need to set good examples for your peers and represent the school, team and your country.
What advice can you give to those who have just started?
B: Don't give up, be serious and focused on what you're doing. Every moment counts and you may not notice a change but it will happen.
Unit 4, Lesson 9, Ex.2a
Hi! I’m Tony and I’m 17. I’m a Sea Cadet. I’ve been in the corps since I was 13. We meet or "drill" at our local unit weekly throughout the year. A unit is structured along military lines and is headed by a Commanding Officer.
We have classes such as basic seamanship, military drill, and leadership. There are weekend competitions where units compete with each other. We also often participate in community events such as parades and fairs, we work in Veterans' Hospitals and organize clothing and food drives.
The best part of my training was spending two weeks with the US coast guard. You know… The sound of alarm, the heart is racing. You actually help save someone’s life. It’s unforgettable. Our motto is Test your limits. And that’s what we regularly do.
I’m Steph and I’m 19. I started in youth parliament when I was 15. At that time I was going to a catholic high school, you know I had about 10-15 girls that I knew of that had children while they were in school. There was no one actually informing any of us on how you could stop that from happening, being safe. That was the main reason why I stood open and said that I wanted to be involved in youth parliament.
I was at the very beginning of SRE: are you getting it campaign. We actually managed to show our programme to the head of the NHS. We also showed it to some ministers down in London. I was a little girl from a little catholic school in the middle of Cheshire. You know I’ve actually helped to change the law and hopefully changed hundreds thousands of young people’s lives. YP is for those with the burning heart who feel ready to do what it takes to make the world a better place.
Hi! I’m John, I’m 16 years old and I’m in Boy’s Brigade Seniors section. Seniors have a special uniform that I enjoy wearing because I feel as though I belong to the family. I participate in the Challenge Plus programme, which is made up of different Projects and Challenges. The weekly section meetings usually run for 1½ - 2 hours and are finished by 10.00pm.
It's all about learning new things, making your own decisions and having fun.
I really recommend BB for those who want to explore new things and achieve a lot while making friends and having adventures.
