A massive well done to the cadets who represented the Squadron at this years Wing Athletics Championship today.

Bringing home gold medals in the junior boys 4 x 100m relay & 400m, silver in the junior boys 1500m & junior girls 1500m & a bronze in the junior boys 200m.

Whether they bought any medals home or not, all the cadets did themselves & the Squadron proud.

Very grateful for this donation and support from Pickfords

Pickfords Cambridge Self Store recently donated cardboard boxes, bubble wrap and packing tape to 2524 (Oakington) Squadron, RAF Air Cadets, as they prepare for the refurbishment of their squadron building 📦

By providing these essential packing materials, we're helping the cadets safely store their training equipment, uniforms and supplies, so they can continue learning, training and growing in a safe, well-organised space.

This weekend saw the Squadron take part in this year sector Field Day.

Although we only managed to field a small contingent the cadets displayed great teamwork, determination and spirit across a range of stands that tested them in archery, leadership, first aid, STEM, drill and Lynx Look.

Well done to all the cadets who took part from across the sector & thanks for the volunteer staff who make these events happen.

Planning has already started for next years event!
