Last Friday, our Early Year’s team opened up the doors to our wonderful mums to celebrate Mother’s Day with their children. The morning consisted of cake and coffee and those lucky enough to attend in the afternoon were treated with afternoon tea! Thank you for everyone that attended.
Recently, our wonderful Reading Council members held a book sale and with the money raised, they allocated a budget for each class to spend on their reading corners, in order to win ‘best reading corner.’
The competition was tough, with each class taking it very seriously! Reading Council arranged for a very special guest to come into school and judge the competition – our very own Mrs Ross! Together with Reading Council and School Council as well as some input from parents – the winning class was decided… Congratulations to Year 6 who created their reading corner based on a number of the children’s own designs.
Below is a picture of the winning book corner, along with some of the other classes efforts!
On Monday, some of our Key Stage 2 children represented the school in the Wolverhampton Tag Rugby Competition. 14 teams from across Wolverhampton entered and were split into two leagues. The children performed extremely well, playing some superb rugby, especially some of our Year 4 children who had never played the game before.
We ended up finishing comfortably 4th in our league, narrowly missing out on the top 3 positions and playing for a runner up spot overall.
Here were our results and the completed league table:
SSPP 4 – 3 St Barts
SSPP 3 – 1 Wodensfield
Fallings Park B 4 – 2 SSPP
St Judes 2 – 3 SSPP
WGS Jnr 5 – 2 SSPP
Castlecroft 1 – 3 SSPP
SSPP 4 – 5 Bhylls Acre
On Monday, our children had a friendly match against St Michaels, who are also in our MAC. This was a chance for a lot of children to represent the school for the first time, and there were some stand out performances including Jacob in goal and Dravid playing on the left side. The final score was 8-4 to St Michaels. This was a thrilling match to watch and thank you to all the parents from both schools who attended to support their children.
Well done to our four Year 5 pupils who attended the annual Girls High Math’s Challenge yesterday. They placed joint 8th and 12th respectively out of 54 teams. This was a fantastic result!
On Friday, Mr Griffiths and Miss Higgins took our children to compete in the Annual Catholic Football and Netball Event.
Our footballers, as in recent years, performed extremely well with some children representing the school for the first time. They finished 4th out of 7 teams. A fantastic result – well done!
Our netball players, who had limited match experience, improved with every match they played. They finished 6th out of 7 teams, which included an excellent win thanks to some great shots by Julia in Year 6. Julia then received a netball for her excellent play in the tournament. Well done everyone involved, and a huge thanks to parents for their support with transport and attending the event.
Congratulations to all of our Year 6 children on their Confirmation last night. A wonderful occasion witnessed by friends, family and staff.
We all enjoyed a wonderful day at SS Peter and Paul celebrating World Book Day. All the children and staff have attended school dressed as their favourite book characters. We started the day by inviting parents in to school in the morning to read with their children. In Year 3, a parent shared a book in her home language (which the children all enjoyed).
Next also enjoyed a school assembly,where each class shared their Reading for Pleasure text. Later in the afternoon, the children swapped classes to share their favourite books with others. A lovely day in school all round!
Sarah Baker, author of ‘The Catapult Kid’, visited several classes at SS Peter and Paul on Friday to read her book to the children. We all thoroughly enjoyed her visit.
Yesterday morning, some of our parents came in to join their children in making pancakes for Shrove Tuesday. Here are some pictures of them in action. Thank you to all the parents that joined us!
