Hi Irish
So hard to date the cadet badges.
My thoughts would be 1960s but possibly a little earlier.
The school was opened in 1937. Not much info around on the cadet units but they were very popular post WW2 for a few decades. So your time line may fit.
The other thing with the cadet badges is that the design rarely changed. So it could have been worn for many years.
