The Flagpole

I would like to take this opportunity to remind you, particularly those new to Princethorpe College, about the wide variety of Co-curricular activities and clubs that are on offer during lunch time and after school.  Not only is it a good way to try new activities but it is also a great way to make new friends.

A list of all the Co-curricular activites can be found at the front of the Michaelmas 2018 Termly Calendar which you will have received by post during the summer.  Alternatively, click here to view an electronic version which can also be found on the Princethorpe College website in the section titled 'Outside Class'.

There is still time to sign off your award in time for the Certificate Presentation Evening.  The following steps are required to be completed by the end of the month:

• Log onto your eDofE account
• Submit your signed Assessor Reports for the physical, skills and volunteering sections and upload onto your account
• Submit each section for approval

If you are having problems with any of these steps, please come to the DofE Completion drop-in sessions on a Tuesday or Wednesday lunchtime in the Limes computer rooms. There is also a Duke of Edinburgh's Guide and Frequently Asked Questions document available if you click here which you may find useful.

The enrolment forms for those that have signed up to the Duke of Edinburgh's Award have now been processed.  Online eDofE accounts have been created and participants will receive their course materials the week beginning Monday 19 November. It has been fantastic to see so many have already signed up for the award this year.

The enrolement deadline has passed. If you missed this but are keen to participate, please contact me directly at willbower@princethorpe.co.uk.
