Formed in 1861 as the Volunteer Rifle Company, BCS Cadet Corps is
the oldest continuous service corps in Canada. Today, we are proud of
our reputation, and of the major role the Corps plays in the lives of
students, school and community.
The program, compulsory for all
students, is organized and run almost entirely by senior cadets.
Instruction is given in skills such as first aid, outdoor education and
service-type activities.
During the year cadets carry out and
organize a number of service-orientated activities. They include
participation in the School Bands, our literary magazine Inscape, the
Round Square and Outreach programs, the environmental Green Group,
Adventure Training, Community Services and the Yearbook. In May of each
year, the Corps holds its Annual Review Parade where many parents and
friends visit the campus and watch the students give a colourful and
lively show.
