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 theĀ NurseryĀ 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.
Nursery children visited the Marquis Drive Visitors Centre, Cannock Chase on Tuesday 25th June, supported by Tanglewood outdoor learning. They became nature detectives and explored nature’s palette, which is outdoor natural art.
Despite the weather, which was rainy and damp, a great time was had by all. Thank you to everyone who helped out on the day, and to parents and carers for ensuring the children were equipped for the day.
On Wednesday, the much anticipated productions of ‘Beowuld’ and ‘Anti-Bullying’ by Year 4 and 5 were performed on stage at the Newhampton Art Centre. The children from both classes have produced the majority of the production themselves: script writing, designing backdrops, stage transitioning and building props. There was also an opportunity to display their work in the exhibition hall.
Both performances were show-stopping and revealed some hidden talents for performing from many children. Thank you to all the parents, family members, governors that attended and supported the pupils. They were truly marvellous and a credit to the school – well done!
On Friday 14th June, Years 3-6 braved the unpredictable weather to participate in many different sporting activities at Aldersley Leisure Village. This culminated in a running event hosted by marathon kids – where the children would do as many laps as possible of the running track in a set time. Each time the children completed a lap – they received a wristband.
I am very proud to announce that SS Peter and Paul children/staff ran a combined 397km (246 miles) in 30 minutes. Well done to all the children, parents and staff who supported and attended this event. Each child received a medal for their efforts and as a bonus met Wolfie!
Last week, Key Stage 2 had a visit from Clare Mullin, who works for Parliament. She led an assembly explaining to the children about democracy and how the Houses of Parliament are home to the House of Lords and House of Commons. The children found this extremely engaging and knowledgeable and prompted lots of fantastic questions for our guest.
Children from Year 3 and Year 2 traveledĀ to Warwick Castle on Wednesday.Ā They had the opportunity to learn about the history of the castle, explore the grounds, take a look inside the Great Hall and take part in a Stories and Shields workshop.Ā Whilst the children were eating their lunch by the riverside, they were able to watch The Falconerās Quest Show; watching birds of prey take flight and perform aerial acrobatics. It was an action packed day and the children thoroughly themselves. The weather was really kind to them too!Ā
On Saturday, SS Peter andĀ Paul held a Father’s Day event where dads could take part in lots of different activities with their children. The poor weather didn’t dampen the day, and there were lots of fun activities going on in school.
Thank you to all the families that attended and for Miss Murphy for organising the event.
