School Council

The School Council TT challenge came to an end this week.

As a school we collected over 100 empty toothpaste tubes that we will now ensure are recycled correctly.

The winning class was 3C with 26 tubes.

Second was 3S with 24 tubes, and

Third place 2J with 21 tubes.

Well done everyone!

The past few weeks the children continued to work extremely hard on their cricket skills.

Year Two and Three have focused on the correct bowling technique, windmilling their arm around ensuring they brush past their ear to direct the ball straight to the batter. Everybody else has put their batting and fielding skills to the test and displayed wonderful teamwork skills to get the ball back to the bowler, as quickly as possible.

What an incredible sporting year it has been! So lucky to have such incredible sporting talent at the school and most importantly watching children blossom with confidence and show their inner Rita Resilience to develop their physical skills further. I am incredibly proud of all the children this year and it has been wonderful to watch them progress in a range of sports on offer to them. I cannot wait to start teaching back in September to all the children at St Peter’s 2-8. I must however say a big farewell to my lovely Year 3 children! They have shown great deal of potential in their sporting talent, and I hope the sheer determination, resilience, fair play, teamwork and competitiveness carries on through their sporting journey, as they progress through the next stages of their education.

I must also give a massive thank you to my Sport Graduate Mr Lomax, who has worked alongside me this year. Next year he will be undertaking a master’s at Loughborough University. The children have thoroughly enjoyed having Mr Lomax in their PE lessons and helping around school.

“I have thoroughly enjoyed working with the children this year, I hope they've learnt as much as they've taught me... thank you for your support (and patience) this year it's been a wonderful whirlwind of laughter.”

We wish him the best of luck.

Big thank you to all the children and parents for your cards and presents Mr Lomax and I received.

I hope you all have a lovely summer holiday! I can't wait to hear about your summer adventures and all the wild sport you get up to.
