CCF Biennial Inspection

Last week the CCF Biennial Inspection took place, several Everett boys were involved in a very successful afternoon, in particular well done to Gus and Jamie who were part of the banner party that took the salute from Lt Col Ladd. Also well done to Myles, Dom, Jamie and Gus who led their platoon sections well during the afternoons events. All the cadets took part in a variety of activities. The Royal Navy section conducted man overboard drills, as well as kayaking and command tasks on the river. In the squash courts, the RAF section learnt about the theory of helicopter flight before putting this theory into practice by experimenting with some remote controlled helicopters. The Army section took part in a blank firing pairs fire and manoeuvre activity on the New Field whilst the Year 10 recruits completed a number of short activities such as command tasks, drill, a first aid scenario and an introduction to the Cadet weapon systems.
