After weeks of intensive training, the CCF Royal Marines Pringle Trophy team will be defending their title this weekend at the RM Commando Training Centre at Lympstone, Devon.

Twenty-two Shrewsbury CCF cadets attended Summer Camp this year, throwing themselves with enthusiasm into a week of challenging activities based in rural Shropshire, on military training areas and in Snowdonia.

Fourth Form CCF cadets Issie Urquhart and Eve Llewellyn and Sixth Formers James Weir and Chad Usher have all achieved notable success in recent weeks. Congratulations to them all.

School Firsts are one of the highest honours at Shrewsbury, rewarding pupils who have demonstrated exceptional contributions to School life. They are awarded each term by a committee of Upper Sixth Formers.
