FOSP Quiz & Pizza Night What a fantastic evening at the FOSP Quiz and Pizza Night! Over 75 quizzers took part across ten teams, enjoying an evening filled with laughter, friendly competition and plenty of pizza. A huge thank you to the Friends of St Peter's for organising such a brilliant community event. Congratulations to PAINT SEATERS (took me a while!), who took home the quiz trophy for Brigstock! Events like these are a wonderful reminder of the strength of our school community. #SchoolCommunity #QuizNight #FriendsOfStPeters #StPetersKettering
Reception Science Outdoors Science took place outside the classroom this week for Reception. Armed with their Chromebooks, the children explored the school grounds, observing, recording and investigating the world or Spring plants around them. Combining technology with outdoor learning helps bring science to life; encouraging curiosity, observation and discovery. Future scientists in the making! #ScienceLearning #OutdoorEducation #Reception #StPetersKettering
Year 5 Class Assembly Year 5 delivered a brilliantly creative and hilarious class assembly this week! In the space of twenty minutes we travelled through history and imagination; from Ancient Greece, to Richard III, to the Victorian era, and even a stop at airport baggage reclaim! The children performed with confidence, humour and impressive knowledge, showcasing just how much they have learned this term. Assemblies like this are always a joy; a chance for pupils to shine and share their learning with the whole school community. Well done Year 5! #SchoolAssembly #PrepSchoolLife #Confidence #StPetersKettering
Preschool Forest School Adventure Our Preschool children headed into Forest School this week for another outdoor learning adventure. The children explored the mud kitchen area. There is something very special about learning outdoors. Curiosity grows, confidence builds and the natural world becomes the classroom. A muddy, magical morning of discovery! #ForestSchool #OutdoorLearning #EarlyYears #StPetersKettering
Preschool Holi Celebration Our Preschool children celebrated Holi, the beautiful festival of colour, joy and new beginnings. There was laughter, excitement and an incredible explosion of colour as the children explored the traditions of this special celebration. The playground quickly became a rainbow of bright powders and smiling faces! Moments like these are a wonderful way for our youngest learners to experience different cultures, traditions and celebrations from around the world. What a joyful way to learn! #Holi #PreschoolLife #LearningThroughPlay #StPetersKettering
World Book Day Magic! St Peter's was transformed into a world of stories as we celebrated World Book Day! From classic characters to modern favourites, our pupils arrived in a wonderful array of costumes, bringing their favourite books to life. The creativity was incredible and the school was buzzing with excitement about reading. One of the joys of the day is discovering new books through the children's enthusiasm. We've certainly added a few titles to our own reading lists! At St Peter's, we believe a love of reading opens doors to imagination, creativity and lifelong learning; and days like this remind us just how powerful stories can be. What was your favourite book as a child? #WorldBookDay #LoveOfReading #PrepSchoolLife #StPetersKettering
