Combined Cadet Force

The Combined Cadet Force (Army Section) is for students in Year 8 and above. We parade each week on Thursdays 3-4.30pm in Room 45, and we are proud to wear our cadet uniform on these days.

The CCF gives students endless opportunities for personal growth and experiences beyond the everyday. As well as our regular training in school, we spend weekends away on trips doing such activities as navigation, field-craft, weapons training, climbing, abseiling, paintballing, laser tag, first aid, communications and visiting the regimental museum. We also support the Redruth Remembrance Day parade. We attend annual camps with a huge range of other CCF contingents each summer and there are many more opportunities for training, fun and competitions for those who are interested in doing more. Those who show leadership skills can be promoted and take additional responsibilities within the contingent. It is a chance for everyone to shine.

CCF offers these opportunities at a small cost to students. For example, our week-long summer camp this year includes all transport, meals, accommodation and activities for £45.  Support is available to those who are unable to meet costs. Through our connections with the Army, we are able to access a vast array of activities with a highly qualified and experienced training team.
