Parents and Grandparents are invited to our Reception Classes Nativity performance of Shine Star Shine.
A lot of hard work has gone into the rehearsals so far, learning the songs, memorising lines, sorting out costumes, scenery and planning the production, and what a spectacle it is all going to be.
Before the performance the staff and children will be busy getting things ready in the hall and I would ask parents to please wait in the Library where there will be tea, coffee and some light refreshments served.
Due to the current situation, we are able to offer each family two tickets for the performance. The performance will be filmed and a link to the recording will be circulated after.

This year we will be holding our Christmas Carol Service at Princethorpe College in the Our Lady of the Angels' Chapel. Please join us for a wonderful evening of carols, readings and re-telling of the Christmas story.
All children in Years 3-6 are involved and required to attend. Please request permission from Mr Thackway if your child is unable to attend for any reason. All children are to wear winter uniform including blazers and grey tights for girls.
Please see Mr Thackway’s message regarding COVID management for this event. We are requesting that parents who attend wear masks and undertake a lateral flow test in advance. The capacity of the Chapel will allow for some distancing as well.
It would be lovely for family of the children in Years 3-6 to join us on this joyous occasion; however due to reduced numbers permitted in the chapel, we can only allocate one ticket per family for children in Years 3-5. Year 6 families will be offered two tickets as it is their last year.
Princethorpe have asked if families can refrain from arriving until after 6.00pm to allow their school day to finish safely. Please follow the signage around to the North car park where you will be able to leave your car and accompany your child through the Sixth Form Centre. All children. staff and the congregation, should be seated at 6.15pm for a prompt start. There will be instrumental and vocal solos taking place as people arrive.
There will be a retiring collection in aid of our termly charity, Warwickshire Wildlife Trust.
