      School is a life experience. You spend 7 hours a day, 5 days a week – 190 days of the year – with us, so we want you to leave with life-long memories and stories.
      When it comes to joining Penrice, we have a well-established programme which makes the transition from Primary to Secondary school as smooth as possible.
      We marked the end of this year’s epic charity Project, #Penrice3580, with the shipping of a 40ft container to children in Kissi Town in Sierra Leone.
