Year 11 Hoodies A Tangible Memory Of Princethorpe School Days

On Wednesday 18 March our Year 11 pupils were able to collect their hoodies and they were all quick to put them on. Now a tradition for most schools, we know that the hoodies will always be a tangible memory of their time at Princethorpe and their fellow pupils. They provide a sense of belonging and of community and in the long distant future we hope they will prompt wonderful memories of their Princethorpe school days.

Year 8 And 9 Immunisations

As you are aware our recent Immunisation Session had to be postponed. For Year 9 girls who were due to have their second dose of HPV the guidelines state that this should be given 6-24 months after the first dose, so there is still plenty of time for the course to be completed. 

I am liaising with the Immunisation Team to ensure we can re-schedule the vaccinations once schools re-open.

If anyone has any queries please contact me via email at pcmatrons@princethorpe.co.uk

My best wishes to everyone at this challenging time.

Church Services Suspended At Our Lady Of The Angels, Princethorpe College And St Anne's, Wappenbury

Mass at Our Lady of the Angels, Princethorpe and St Anne's, Wappenbury is suspended until further notice. The celebration of the Mass is under constant review following the Government and Archdiocese guidelines.

For updates regarding the resumption of Mass at both churches please use the parish website, see below.

For those Sundays when you are not be able to attend Mass, I encourage setting aside the same time as if you were at Mass and using the Missal to pray together (if there is more than one family member in the house) or alone in some quiet space in your home.

I will try to upload some relevant material for us, as parishioners and friends, to reflect upon. You can also find a lot of relevant material on line.

It is my hope to upload a homily reflection for each Sunday.

Throughout the weeks, I will celebrate Mass alone each day at about 9.00am. If you can find a little quiet time then, please join with me in prayer.

Let us use our social media to keep in touch during these times, especially with our elderly and unwell parishioners and friends. You are welcome to contact me at any time during this difficult time - there will always be time! My contact details are listed on the parish website.

If you would like further information about St Anne's, Wappenbury please use the link here.

You also have the opportunity of joining the celebration of Mass from some local churches live using the following link

Please note both churches are now closed until further notice.

My prayers and blessings are with the parish community and all those connected to the Princethorpe Foundation.
