abstract	Wellingborough School’s Combined Cadet Force has a long and distinguished history. Established in November 1900, on the occasion of its centenary in 2000 the Annual Inspection was covered by BBC television. The CCF has facilities behind the Sports Hall as well as an indoor .22 shooting range. In over a century it has passed through numerous phases often reflecting changes in society. Today Wellingborough School CCF is a compulsory activity for all S9 pupils until the completion of the S10 year after which it continues to attract both boys and girls at instructor level. The annual Presentation Evening in January for the new S9 recruits is a memorable occasion in which serving members of sections provide a graphic picture of the experiences of life in the CCF. Three major trips are undertaken one of which is compulsory; the others are during holiday time though we always take the majority of pupils : each year Exercise First Field takes place during the first weekend of the Easter holidays at the military training area in Thetford Forest in Norfolk and all of S9 and S10 travel to the Peak District during the last week of the Trinity Term for a 2 night Adventure Training trip. Wellingborough School CCF compromises four sections in total - Army, RAF, Navy and Royal Marines. Facilities include a CCF operations area and an indoor .22 25-yard shooting range. The contingent is staffed by officers from the school. The Contingent Commander, Major S. Garfirth, has been in post since 2000. He is supported by Regimental Sergeant Major Warrant Officer S. Moffatt.
