Rossall’s Combined Cadet Force enjoyed an unforgettable day of water-based adventure training at the iconic Liverpool Albert Docks, and what better way to beat the heat?

Day 1 of Army Camp kicked off with a bang, literally, as Rossall CCF cadets dove into an action-packed day of fieldcraft training like no other. Under the expert guidance of two highly experienced instructors from the North West Cadet Training Team, cadets learned how to engage a simulated enemy in the field.

With a 100% pass rate and an average point score of 36, significantly above both UK and global averages, Rossallians are now heading off to pursue a diverse range of exciting pathways, including some of the most competitive university courses in the UK and internationally.

Dear All,

As the academic year is now drawing to a definitive close, I am writing to express my heartfelt gratitude to all Rossallians and their families. Rossall is a truly outstanding community of which I have been immeasurably proud to have been a member.  Thank you so much for the incredible kindness and friendliness that has been extended towards the Quartermain family over the years. We will miss the Fylde Coast enormously but I know that the connections that we have made here, and the friendships that have evolved, will endure long into the future. 

“May the road rise to meet you, may the wind be always at your back, may the sun shine warm upon your face, and the rains fall soft upon your fields. And until we meet again, may God hold you in the palm of His hand."

It was a special day for the chapel today as next year’s Year 7’s embarked on a treasure hunt through the building. What started tentatively - and with a slight air of apprehension and genuine awe - quickly turned into an avid competition to find stories in windows, names on honours-boards and the name of the handsome wooden man standing on a dragon in Memorial Chapel…..(It turned out to be St George)

The more time you spend in our beautiful chapel, the more detail you discover: almost every window shows a different character from the Bible, every plaque is a memory of a Rossallian’s life, every little wooden creature makes you realise just how special a place you are in - and our new Year 7’s certainly discovered every detail, looked into every corner and brought the chapel to life with their enthusiasm and energy.
