The Old Oakhamian Club

An unforgettable week at Bisley for the CCF Schools Meeting! 🎯 Ten cadets took on four days of shooting at 300, 500 & 600 yards, competing alongside 31 other schools. Ashburton Day was a highlight, with Evie, Henry, Isla & Harry placing 2nd in the Ashburton Four 🥈👏. A busy, rewarding week full of teamwork, focus, and new friendships — we’re proud of every one of our cadets 💪
