Socially-Distanced Welcome
Mrs Morris and Mrs Waling welcomed new Reception parents to our first socially-distanced meeting in the freshly decorated Sunnylands Hall. The event was a huge success as parents respected social distancing whilst learning about their child's learning journey at St Peter's. Parents also welcomed the opportunity to meet the new teaching duo. Both Mrs Morris and Mrs Waling are looking forward to September and getting to know parents, and children, even better.
