First full day on this year’s Easter Camp is well underway - Weapons Handling Tests are being completed alongside some interest periods (including these drones)

Congratulations to our two newest Corporals. Excellent effort on Easter Camp so far this week, well done!

Easter Camp was a great success last week (apart from the weather). Recruits enjoyed cooking their own meals while on exercise.

Congratulations to Cadet Frears for winning the best recruit on camp this year, and Cadet Badcock for winning the most improved recruit.

A big thank you to all the NCOs and Staff who gave up their time to come and help teach / assist with this year's camp. Without them, the cadets wouldn't get these opportunities to develop the key skills the CCF aims to provide.

Congratulations to all the cadets who won awards on Easter camp. Cadet Frears (best recruit), Cadet Badcock (most improved recruit), Cadet Van Poortvliet (best AIC) and Cpl Nolan (best NCO). Well done!

To celebrate the upcoming Coronation of His Majesty King Charles III and the Queen Consort, students and staff at Abingdon School today celebrated with a CCF inspection parade, whole school Coronation ceremony, and singing of the National Anthem. ow.ly/MUcm50OgUS1

Lovely to have live music before the Celebration Parade this afternoon!

Many thanks to @JTChinook for coming to inspect the contingent for a very special Coronation Parade. Another proud day for Abingdon School CCF Cadets. Well done and God Save the King!

We would like to thank our U6th Cadets for all their hard work throughout their time in the CCF. As their final day at school approaches, we hope they have enjoyed their time with us and wish them all the best as they move on in their lives. Thank you.

Congratulations to the L6th Cadets who successfully interviewed and accepted their new roles as heads of sections ahead of their final year in the CCF. Well done!

Today we bid farewell and wished our Upper 6th students good luck, as they embark on study leave ahead of their public exams. Find out more here: ow.ly/hJ8P50OmyKL

We welcomed our new recruits this week. A great effort with their turnout, well done all!
