Penrice Joins Parkrun at Eden

Saturday 22nd March 2025
Penrice families gather at Eden Parkrun, February 2025
We’re encouraging Penrice families to gather once again at The Eden Project on Saturday 22nd March as we join in with the local Parkrun!

The beauty of Parkrun is that you can walk, jog or race the route. We’re encouraging as many parents, students and staff to come together and enjoy the many benefits of Parkrun.

Bring your best running shoes (or your most comfortable ones, we’re not judging), register for your barcode and save the date: Saturday 22nd March, 8.45am, Eden Parkrun!

Wednesday 26th March, 5:00pm – 6:30pm

As part of our continuous work in valuing every voice, we hereby invite parents and carers of current Penrice students to our upcoming Parent Forum which will take place on Wednesday 26th March.

For this forum, we will focus specifically on Curriculum Enrichment Week (CEW) and enrichment more widely at the school. Whilst completing the registration form below, you will also have the opportunity to share some thoughts in advance of the meeting if you wish to.

Year 7 Disco

Thursday 27th March, 6:00pm – 8:00pm

Dear Parents and Carers

We are excited to inform you that we will be holding a Year 7 Disco at Penrice Academy on Thursday 27 March from 6:00pm to 8:00pm. This event is being organised as a reward for the hard work and dedication that Year 7 students have shown throughout the year, and we are looking forward to an evening of fun and celebration.

To help cover the costs of the event, we are asking for a voluntary contribution of £1 which can be given in on the night. Students will be able to purchase sweets and drinks, which will be served by our wonderful Year 11 Student Leaders.

If you would like your child to attend the Disco, please fill in the online form below. The form will need to be submitted by Monday 24 March to confirm your child’s place.

 
We are looking forward to a fantastic evening and hope your child will be able to join us for this exciting event.

Students should be dropped off and collected from the main carpark at the front of school.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact the school office.

Yours sincerely
Mr D Darbourne & Mr G Thomas
