Welcome to our Latest News page - a place for you to see how we are learning and living 'Life in all its Fullness' at St. Peter’s Church of England Junior School.

• Happy Half Term

  Fri 23 Oct 2020
  Wishing all our families at St. Peter’s Church of England Junior School a happy half term holiday. 
  ‘Autumn days when the grass is jewelled
  And the silk inside a chestnut shell’.

  

• Beautiful Learning

  Thu 22 Oct 2020
  We are very proud of these beautiful beach collages, created by our Year 4 children as part of their project ‘What makes the UK a good place to explore’! The children have worked on these masterpieces over the half term, building on their designs week by week - starting with the painting of the sea and the creative design of their collage effect. 

  

• Year 6 Portraits

  Wed 21 Oct 2020

  Introducing our Year 6 portraits! This half term term, our children have been considering ‘Are values from the past still relevant today’ and their thoughtful portraits are a such a creative interpretation and expression of their own characters.

  

• Fundraising

  Wed 21 Oct 2020
  Thank you for supporting our ‘house shaped’ biscuit sale, helping to raise funds to rebuild a house in The Gambia, West Africa. Our children showed such beautiful kindness with their lovely appreciation and generosity, with so many children offering to donate their change. Such a shining example of our community working and joining together. Thank you to our kitchen team for making the delicious biscuits and for all the support from our children and families  - an impressive £166.25 was raised! 

  

• Pastel Planets

  Mon 19 Oct 2020
  We are very proud of our Year 5 children, who have created these beautiful pastel sketches as part of their space project. This half term, our Year 5 children have been considering ‘Is it right to explore a place where no human has ever been?’ Their art work captures the beauty, awe and wonder of space - leaving us to question whether it’s a place that should be left undisturbed.

  

• Autumn Days

  Mon 19 Oct 2020
  A beautiful Autumn morning at St. Peter’s Church of England Junior School. 

  

• School Community

  Fri 16 Oct 2020

  Next week, we will be hosting our 'house biscuit sale', helping to raise funds for the house project in The Gambia, West Africa.  Thank you to our kitchen team for making all the biscuits - such a lovely example for our Value of Service and a wonderful example of our community in action.

  

• Celebration of Learning

  Thu 15 Oct 2020

  Each week, we encourage the children to reflect on their 'life in all fullness' achievements.  What are you most proud of and why?  Which of our values have you shown and how?  This week, we are feeling proud of the writing outcomes on display in our classrooms - a lovely example of our Value of Celebration.

   

  

• Young Fundraisers

  Fri 09 Oct 2020

  In our year group assemblies this week, we have invited our children to reflect on 'what makes a house a home?' - with the launch of a fundraising appeal to re-build a family home in The Gambia, West Africa.  We invite the children to consider ways they might be able to raise a little money at home to help support this home, badly destroyed by recent rains.

   

  

• Student Leadership

  Thu 08 Oct 2020

  At St. Peter’s Church of England Junior School, we strive to create opportunities for our children to learn and live 'Life in all its Fullness' with pupil voice and student leadership at the very heart.  We are excited to announce a new role available to our children at lunchtimes - introducing our Play Leaders!  Applications are now open - please visit our Child Leadership page for more information!
