With dark nights upon us and the cold weather of winter fast appoaching, the new Princethorpe College Zaini hat is now available. The hats can be bought for £15 from the school shop. These would make a fantastic Christmas present.
I would like to say thank you to all the pupils and staff for their hard work in all of the PE and sport activities that happened last half term. It has been great to see so many pupils participating in sport on site and representing the College in competitive fixtures.
For Games, pupils will continue to come to school in their Princethorpe College PE kit and the correct footwear for their activity, it is recommended that pupils bring their College waterproof with them with a change in the weather expected.
The extra-curricular programme will follow the same programme although some small changes have been made to boys' football.
Year 9 boys football training – Tuesday lunchtime on the astro turf
Year 8 boys football training – Thursday lunchtime on the astro turf
Year 7 boys football training – Friday lunchtime on the astro turf
All pupils must ensure that they attend all sporting activities in the correct College kit.
