During the second half of the summer term, both classes from St Peter’s Year 6 will be experiencing lessons at Oaklands as a completion of their Philosophy for Children study.  Each fortnight, the pupils in Year 6 have a lesson with the Headteacher in which they explore and discussion different concepts and arguments.  For the final 3 lessons of this school year, under the guidance of RE teacher Miss Hogan in Oaklands’ chapel (pictured below), the children will undertake a programme of study in Philosophy and Ethics in which they explore the presence of God in our lives.

This is an excellent bridging opportunity between primary and secondary school, as well as challenging the pupils to put their reasoning and debating skills to the test at an extended level.

Our brilliant PTA The Friends of St Peter’s organised a Fathers’ Day gift sale this week, enabling the pupils to buy a little something for dads, grandads, uncles or special adults in their lives.  This was ahead of their main fundraiser, which saw a welcomed return of St Peter’s Summerfest on the school field on Friday evening 17^th June.  Great fun was had by all at this circus-themed event, with music from a local band and lots of stalls for children and adults alike to enjoy.
