Early years are celebrating World Nursery Rhyme this week, and on Wednesday welcomed families to join in with rhyme related activities, before singing the 5 rhymes from the ‘Rhyme a Day’ challenge. Those rhymes are Baa Baa Black Sheep, Two Little Dicky Birds, Down in the Jungle, Row Row Row Your Boat and Incy Wincy Spider. A big thank you to all who attended.
Our school has launched a Facebook page as another way to keep our school community updated with events in school.

We did it!!! Thanks to the dedication of our school community, we have managed to complete our Aldi Kit for Schools Poster. This means that we will be rewarded with some new sports kit and additionally, go into the competition to win £20,000.
Thank you to all parents, staff and children that brought in stickers to complete the poster!
Last week we took part in UK Parliament Week. We had a virtual tour of parliament, held a debate on ‘should school holidays be longer’ and held our house captain elections. Well done to those children who are our elected house captains for this academic year.

Children from across Key Stage 2 performed a dance to explain the suffragettes and how they fought for the right for women to be able to vote. This was choreographed by Nicole (Our Dance Teacher) and was performed in front of visitors from across the Midlands, who had come to visit the school in relation to our pursuit of the Arts Mark. A fantastic performance!
Film night was a huge success! Classrooms were turned into mini cinemas with refreshments provided and a roaming tuck shop available for the children to purchase further snacks.Thank you for all the children that attended and all the staff that helped support the running of the films.
On Friday, parents, children and staff were able to celebrate all the wonderful history projects that had been made by each class around their own History topic. There were such a variety of projects, all completed to a wonderful high quality. Thank you for the all the time that children and family members put into making these. Children were also able to share their knowledge of their History topic when some children questioned them on their projects. Well done all!
So Close!
What an excellent start to the season! It was great to play the match against St Andrews and they really worked us hard. The first half was particularly tough and unfortunately we went 3-1 down. However, our players refused to be downcast at half time and showed real team spirit and resilience. A special thanks must go to Dorian (Year 5) who really motivated the players and kept  everyone focussed. Additionally, great credit must be given to Kacper (Year 4) who succeeded in making some game changing saves! Although we couldn’t fully turn the match around, we achieved a very respectable 4-5 score.
The team played superbly and their sheer grit and determination was a great credit to our school; if you see any of the squad,  please congratulate them on their fabulous effort. Finally, our award for ‘man of the match’ goes to Jonah (Year  5) for his determination whilst on the ball and the respect he showed for the opposition.

On Friday, children and staff at SS Peter and Paul celebrated the religious festival of Diwali in school by wearing traditional dress, bright clothing and learning about the festival in classes. Traditional refreshments were also on sale to the children and parents at the end of the day.
What a lovely way to end a busy half term! A safe holiday to all and we will see you back at school on Monday 4th November for the start of Parliament week.
