Today, our principal for the day, Miss Jarosz-Green, has taken control of the school. Children have come to school in their own clothes at her wish, and staff are in school uniform.

Her first order of business this morning was to read our latest OFSTED report, deciding which quotes should be shared and also where the OFSTED logo should be placed on our website homepage.

Yesterday, we had our Nursery Graduation where the children shared what they have enjoyed this year and also sang some of their favourite songs.

Parents, family and staff were treated to a phenomenal performance from the children in Nicole’s musical theatre club.

They have been learning 3 songs from the broadway show ‘Matilda’ and have also been acting small parts from the show. Staff were brought to tears as some of the children sang the songs showcasing their talent for performing. Well done everyone!

A lovely day was had by all last Thursday for our annual Sports Day and we were so thankful the rain held off!

All children competed and enjoyed themselves cheering each other on and showing tremendous sportsmanship.

A wonderful turn out by family and friends to support the children and donations were made to raise money for a school defibrillator. Thank you for our parent volunteers for running the refreshment stall.

Thank you and well done to Mr Griffiths for organising his first Sports Day.

Year 6 raised the bar with their tremendous end of year production – Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory.

The creativity and performances truly were special with some stand out performances from Mujtaba, Ernestas and Saya with her solo performance without any musical backing. A massive congratulations to all children involved.

A special thanks to Miss Higgins, Mrs O’Leary and Nicole for their hard work to put thi show together.

On Friday, Years 4 and 5 attended Scifest at Wolverhampton University along with other schools from across Wolverhampton.

The children attended various workshops including focuses on animals, rockets, coding for drones, social experiments and the invisible world (looking at organisms through microscopes). There was also an opportunity for children to look around the stalls and take part in a wider range of technology and experiments including: burning iron, virtual reality, reactions testing, construction, gaming and many more.

The children’s behaviour was impeccable as always – what a wonderful experience.

Congratulations to our Nursery Class who won the ‘Top 25 Picture Books’ in the Nursery category in Wolverhampton. The huge number of photos in their display showed that the children (and parents and teachers!) must have really embraced the whole idea of Sharing a Story! Please look at this link:

We are delighted to announce that SS Peter and Paul have achieved the School Games GOLD Mark Award for the 2018/19 academic year (and second consecutive year).

The School Games Mark is a Government led award scheme launched in
2012, facilitated by the Youth Sport Trust to reward schools for their commitment to the development of competition across their school and into the community, and we are delighted to have been recognised for our success.

As part of our application, we were asked to fulfil criteria in the areas of
participation, competition, workforce and clubs, and we are pleased that
the hard work of everyone at our school has been rewarded this year.

This demonstrates the school’s commitment to our children for developing the body as well as mind and spirit of each and every one of them.
