Year 5 go to University…

8th April 2022Mr J Morgan

Yesterday, as part of their link with Children’s University, Year 5 children went to visit City Campus in Wolverhampton. This included a tour of the buildings and an explanation of what to expect in University life.

Their first activity included working in groups to design their own university using lego. Each group was given a specific part of the university to design and build:

  • University Library
  • Halls of Residence
  • Canteen
  • Student’s Union
  • Sports Centre
  • Academic Buildings

After sitting and having lunch, which was provided by the university, the children were introduced to all the possible courses that are available at university. This included activities like; guess the career, how many jobs are there in a hospital… This was really eye-opening for our children as it really broadened their minds as to the amount of careers out there for them in the future. Our many thanks go to the Wolverhampton University outreach team who arranged this for us.

School of the Year!

30th March 2022Mr J Morgan

SS Peter and Paul have won the National Parliament Award for School of the Year. Yesterday, Mrs Byrne and some pupils (past and present) went to London to accept the award from the Houses of Parliament on the schools behalf.

A huge thank you to our entire school community as without your support and backing for our #SSPPthebeatgoeson campaign, none of this would have been possible.

 

Year 4 – PCSO Visit

30th March 2022Mr J Morgan

Yesterday, our local Police Community Support Office (PCSO) visited our Year 4 class to discuss about Antisocial Behaviour in the community. The children were really engaged and took the opportunity to ask lots of interesting questions around recent issues that may be happening in our local area.

After Easter, our Year 3 and 5 class will also be having a class visit.

SSPP Run Wolves 10K

28th March 2022Mr J Morgan

Congratulations to our committed team of runners who participated in the Wolverhampton 10K yesterday to raise money for a school defibrillator!

All the team made a fantastic effort and smashed their personal targets all in aid of a wonderful cause.

Thank you to all the friends, families and children who came out to support on the route!

SSPP Children’s Run

25th March 2022Mr J Morgan

On Wednesday, our children took part in their sponsored run to raise money for a school defibrillator. Years 2, 3, 4 and 6 went to Aldersley Stadium to do their runs around the track in 45 minutes. The remaining classes ran around a specially designed course in school, again seeing how many laps they could complete!

The effort from all the children, from our youngest in Nursery to our oldest in Year 6 was absolutely amazing and the support all our families and friends gave with donations was out of this world!

 

We look forward to supporting our staff running team on Sunday in the Wolverhampton 10k!
