November Intake

blueboat

For those starting in November

RedPool2891

Hahaha I can't wait to start a thread like this soon!  Good luck folks!

blueboat

Thanks Redpool. Hopefully it fills up as today/rest of week goes on!

goodburger1

Excited but apprehensive at same time. I think more apprehensive than excited at the minute. Hoping tomorrow I will see things more clearer. What age group is everyone?

blueboat

Prefer not to say on public board but not fresh out of school or anything like that. Yea I know what you mean, it’s still sinking in after waiting so long. Will be great to meet up with everyone. Hopefully there will be a good number of boardies in the class so we can put some names to faces.

Still can't believe the call actually came through after such a long wait with so many hiccups along the way

Congratulations folks.

Would one of yous be as kind to give us a class size once yous go for your induction day? Nothing compromising just a quick head count for all of us still waiting.

Well done to those of you who got that vital life-changing call. It's a very, very tough job. You will be put through the emotional windmill in just one shift, but it WILL be worth it. Delighted for all of you.

Prepare for a life less ordinary.

From the initial list you made in 1509 to this one here, I never thought it would actually arrive. Too excited for words. Just brilliant.

Absolutely; lots to be proud of.
From the 5,500 that applied we made it to the 2,000 that passed the IST. Then we made it to the 900 that passed the AC. We cleared every stage along the way to be offered a place with one of the best police services in the world.

Anyone know what the situation is re food at Garnerville?  Catering?  Self-catering?  Ashamedly, it's a passion of mine...

If you get to stay it's fridges, microwaves and toasters. So no Masterchef challenges lol

They have canteen facilities but as we no longer get the daily food allowance it might not appeal to all.

There's a canteen, the food is pretty good. You'll probably spend about £5-7 per meal depending on how much you eat. Otherwise there are fridges in the recreation room along with microwaves, toasters and an oven if you want to cook for yourself
