Goodbye RAFO Students - you were great ambassadors for your country!
A fond farewell to our latest group of RAFO students who departed York at the weekend! The students said goodbye to the school and to their friends with the now customary farewell meal at one of York's finest Indian restaurants. We were pleased that so many of our other students went along to wish the RAFO's well in the future and to enjoy a final evening out with them. A great time was had by all! We are really looking forward to welcoming our next group of students from the Royal Air Force of Oman.
