Chapel Christmas Tree Decorated With Stars

 In what has become an important Christmas tradition here at Princethorpe, the College community were invited to write the names of those who have touched their lives with love on a star. Each individual handwritten star was then carefully positioned on the tree.

The message of Christmas is one of love and the decorated Christmas tree in the Chapel is our College’s symbolic representation of that message. The many stars on the tree a testament to the presence of love in the world.

Standing outside the Chapel this year is our ‘Dove of Intergrity’ which has also been decorated beautifully with chains of brightly coloured paper Christmas trees. In their Advent Reflection, pupils in Year 7 and Year 8 were encouraged to share how they are living up to this year’s Chaplaincy theme of ‘Integrity’ by writing an example of how they have shown integrity on a miniature Christmas tree. Their thoughts were then joined together in a chain and displayed for all to see.

Our thanks go to our Year 7 pupils, including Sienna, Lucile and Sofia, who, alongside their peers, have helped with decorating our tree.
