Our fearless Year 5 & 6 adventurers went deep beneath the earth, exploring ancient caves and navigating the twists and turns of the prehistoric world! In complete darkness, with only head torches to guide them, they crawled, climbed and squeezed through underground passages; conquering fears and showing incredible bravery. An unforgettable journey into the depths... and into their own courage! #StPetersSchool #CavingAdventure #FearlessExplorers #Year5and6 #BraveryBelowGround
Year 2 took their learning out of the classroom today with a delicious trip to Pizza Express at Rushden Lakes! As part of their English topic on writing clear instructions, the children had the chance to follow (and later write) step-by-step guides on how to make their very own pizzas; from dough to toppings to oven! Tasty, practical, and packed with learning; the perfect recipe! #StPetersSchool #LearningByDoing #PizzaInstructions #Year2Adventures #rushdenlakes
A huge shoutout to our amazing Year 5 & 6 adventurers who took on climbing, bouldering, and abseiling with courage and determination! They pushed themselves to new heights, quite literally, and conquered their fears by stepping boldly over the edge. Teamwork, bravery, and big smiles all round. What an unforgettable day! #StPetersSchool #ChallengeAccepted #FearlessLearners #ClimbingConfidence #Year5and6Adventures
Year 3 took their maths learning outside today for a hands-on lesson all about capacity! Using the EYFS outdoor area and water trays, they measured, poured, estimated and compared; all while enjoying the sunshine and a splash of fun! Practical, purposeful and perfect for a sunny day! #StPetersSchool #LearningThroughPlay #MathsOutdoors #Year3Capacity #SunshineAndSTEM
A huge well done to our Reception Class who led their very first Class Assembly this week; and what a fantastic job they did! They confidently told us all about minibeasts, sharing fun facts, songs, and big smiles along the way. It's no small feat standing up in front of a hall full of grown-ups and older pupils, we are so proud of their courage and enthusiasm. What a brilliant boost for their confidence and a lovely way to start the week! #StPetersSchool #ReceptionStars #MinibeastMagic #ConfidenceBuilding
Tonight, our Year 5 & 6 intrepid children hiked to the top of the world... or at least South Wales! What an adventure; what a view. #explorers #conquerers #adventurers #sunset
Happy National Limerick Day! At St Peter's, we love a good rhyme, and what better way to celebrate than with a limerick of our own? There's a school in the heart of the town, Where no one is ever seen frown. With gardens and trees, And a buzz full of bees, St Peter's wears learning like a crown! The children all sing with great pride, In Houses they stand side by side. With laughter and cheer, And teachers so near, It's a place where young minds open wide. There's a pond and a forest to roam, A mud kitchen just like at home. With wellies and sticks, And den-building tricks, It's a childhood in full garden gnome! From concerts and carols to plays, We celebrate all kinds of days. With kindness our guide, And joy we can't hide, St Peter's deserves all the praise! Why not try writing your own today and add it to the comments? Let's celebrate the joy of language and a little bit of silliness too! #NationalLimerickDay #StPetersSchool #LoveOfLanguage #CreativeKids
Off they go! Our Year 5 & 6 pupils have set off on their Govilon Residential adventure this morning, full of excitement, laughter, and a few very big backpacks! While many children across the country will be sitting SATs this week, ours will be climbing, caving, canoeing and making memories that will last a lifetime. At St Peter's, we believe in putting children first, and that means unforgettable experiences, challenge, teamwork and fun! #GovilonAdventure #PuttingChildrenFirst #LearningBeyondTheClassroom #StPetersSchool
