Tuesday 30 April
As part of the preparation for secondary school transition we will be taking the Junior 5 classes to our Foundation senior school, Princethorpe College, on Tuesday 30 April for a Taster Day. They will be leaving Crackley Hall at 9.00am, by minibus.
Pupils will get a feel for senior school life through a variety of classroom sessions, they will also tour the school, have the chance to quiz current pupils in a Q&A session and experience breaktime and lunch in a busy secondary school environment. Please send your child in full school uniform but please note that no bags, snack, water bottle or lunch are needed as these will all be provided.
At the end of the afternoon, parents who are interested in entry to Princethorpe in September 2025 are invited to an informal Parents’ Information Session at 4.15pm, where they will collect their child.
Grove du Toit, the Headmaster, along with other key members of staff will be available to talk to you about the College and will outline the admissions process. The children will also be able to trial the online CEM test, one of the exams that prospective pupils complete during the Entrance Examinations Day, which will take place on Saturday 9 November 2024. Light refreshments will be served.
For those parents who are unable to attend the Parents’ Information Session, your child will be transported back to Crackley Hall for 3.30pm. Children whose parents are collecting them from Princethorpe will have an extra lesson before their parents arrive.
In the meantime, if you have any questions about admissions to Princethorpe College, do get in touch with the Admissions Team on 01926 634201/297 or email admissions@princethorpe.co.uk.
