Braving the snow showers, SVS Cadets gathered around Prefect’s Lawn to witness Mr Millbery be promoted from Major to Lieutenant Colonel, the highest rank available in CCF.

Mr Thomas, Headmaster, was present to award Mr Millbery with his new rank slides to denote the change: “The CCF at Sutton Valence School applauded Lieutenant Colonel Glen Millbery, following 20 years of outstanding services to the Combined Cadet Force. Many of the current students look up to him, and students who have already been through the school will have very fond memories of him. He is an inspirational leader, with the highest standards and the greatest level of care for his own profession and the young people he oversees in the CCF.”
