Walk to School 2017/18

By Mr J Morgan7th November 2017

As part of our aim to encourage our children to enjoy and live healthy lives and to try and reduce the traffic outside our school, we have joined the Living Streets – Walk to School Challenge.

Tom from Living Streets delivered an assembly to the children yesterday to launch the walk to school campaign. This scheme encourages children to be active on their way to school. They will get a badge each month for walking once a week at least; there are 11 to collect.

There are options to ‘park and stride’ , as the aim is complete at least a 10 minute walk to school.

The class trackers are available to the children each morning in their classes so they can mark whether they have been active for that day.

On Friday 29th September we held our annual Macmillan Coffee morning. Thank you to everyone for your generous donations of cakes, and for the delectable entries to our bake off competition. The judges had the pleasurable task of tasting the cakes and desserts, and the difficult task of choosing our winners. Congratulations to you all! They also judged the children’s bake off; Early Years and Key Stage One made fairy cakes and Key Stage Two produced flapjacks. Well done to Year One and Year Five who were declared the ‘champion bakers’ of SS Peter and Paul school.
We raised a grand total of £343.50, which is a fantastic achievement. We look forward to next year’s coffee morning with anticipation!
