More than 400 children have been given survival training at the Army's training area at Otterburn, Northumberland.
Members of the Cleveland Army Cadet Force learnt how to build makeshift, lean-to shelters, called bashas, in the woods and cook Army compo rations. Older teenagers on the summer camp took part in adventure training, including canoeing, abseiling and raft construction.
A highlight for many was being taught how to ride a motorcycle by a former member of the Royal Signals White Helmets motorcycle display team.
Scott Dunkley, 14, from Ingleby Barwick, said: "When I leave school I want to join the Royal Signals as a technician and hopefully get into the White Helmets team.
"This is the third time I've been on a motor bike and it's great."
Andrew Thwaites, 12, from Stockton, and Fay Crosby, 14, from Guisborough, were filmed in a basha, cooking their meal and during map and compass training as part of a promotional film for the cadet force.
