We all had great fun dressing up as book characters on Thursday 7th March. The day got off to a great start with an assembly where everybody showed their costumes off! We were delighted to find that, thanks to the children’s kind donations, we raised over £247 for Book Aid International. This money will help to pay for books in less economically developed countries.

St Peter's Pebbles Playground Assembly, by Mrs Brandwood
Date: 1st Mar 2024 @ 2:56pm
St Peter's Playground Pebbles lead a fantastic whole school assembly on Tuesday.
The Pebbles explained how they could support children at playtime and lunchtime who are feeling lonely or who are finding it difficult to join in a game. They explained how they will model and use our Christian Values to help everyone have fun when playing outside on our playground.
In front of the whole school, the Pebbles made their special promise:
A friend to all who need it - for we believe that,
"...if one falls down, his friend can help him up..."
Ecclesiastes 4:9-10.
The group then went onto explain the exciting new games they will be leading each lunchtime and introduce some of our new playground equipment.
Well done to our Pebbles! You showed great leadership, teamwork, bravery and friendship as you delivered your assembly. Everyone at St Peter's is very excitied to get outside and play at break and lunchtime!
St Peter's WOW Church Welcomes 'Praise Along' to record a fantastic collective worship song!, by Mrs Brandwood
Date: 1st Mar 2024 @ 2:42pm
On Tuesday, St Peter's enjoyed hosting our Spring Term WOW Church Synod Group meeting. This meeting was special as we were delighted to welcome Kelly and her team from ‘Praise Along’ to produce an environmentally based collective worship song. 10 children from St Peter’s were joined by children from St John’s Thornham and Milnrow Parish to sing a beautiful song called, ‘Rich Diversity’. This was a wonderful opportunity for our children and they had a fantastic time singing, performing and recording the song. It was amazing to hear the collective voices of our group sing out about such an important topic with great enthusiasm!
Thanks again to Kelly and her Team from ‘Praise Along’ for this opportunity and for members of our diocese for attending and showing their support. We are looking forward to hearing our song when it is published later this year – watch this space!
Our WOW Church members would also like to share the prayer we said at the beginning of our meeting to show our gratitude for our wonderful world:
Dear God,
We praise you for the beauty of creation, its richness and variety.
The earth is yours, and everything in it, the world, and all who live in it.
Grant us your grace that we may exercise wise stewardship of this Earth; tread lightly upon it and cherish its resources so that in years to come everyone may enjoy its riches.
Please be with us today as we create this song to help spread the word of how wonderful and diverse your creation is.
Help us to restore and care for this beautiful earth you blessed us with.
Amen

Year 5 Ranger Visit, by Miss Healey
Date: 8th Feb 2024 @ 10:06am
In preparation for our Earth Day art project, we had a visit from a Ranger who had lots of interesting and informative activities for us. We first went on a scavenger hunt for information about the damage specific types of litter have on our wildlife, then we used our clues to solve an anagram. We did a litter pick and then learnt all about the timeline of how long things take to rot and degrade when thrown away and put into landfill. We were extremely surprised at some of these answers, especially disposable nappies and styrofoam! What a great learning opportunity!
