In the first three weeks of the spring term, pupils at St Peter’s have been very busy across the wider curriculum.  In the Reception Year the children were very excited to welcome visitors including a doctor, nurse, veterinary nurse and paramedic into the classrooms. They asked some fantastic questions and showed great curiosity about the important work these professionals do.

Year 3 have started a new music topic on samba. The pupils have learnt about where samba music comes from and what instruments they will be using over the term to learn how to play samba music. The children have already had the opportunity to play some beats on the instruments and can’t wait for what they will learn next.

Year 5 were visited by Katy Sexton MBE, a former Olympic swimmer for Team GB. Katy spoke about her achievements in swimming and how she got into the sport. She then spoke to the pupils about water safety ready for their class swimming sessions to begin.  Katy showed the classes what to do if they find someone struggling in the water, and what to do if they ever found themselves in trouble in open water.

Thank you to the St Peter’s staff for organising these great learning opportunities, and to the visitors who give of their time and expertise to teach our children.
