St Peter's First School

Our Reception children have thoroughly enjoyed taking their reading outside today! #readingforpleasure

The staff and PTA are busy setting the hall up ready for the Christmas fair tomorrow. There is a real buzz around the school! Please join us from 2pm.

Christmas Fair - please get in touch with the school if you would like to reserve a table.

The children at St Peter's will be spending time together today, thinking about the wonderful life of Queen Elizabeth II. Over the next few days we will be reflecting on the legacy of service she leaves behind.

Our Year 4 children at the Leavers Festival (Residential camping trip).

Why is it never a good idea to play card games at the zoo? Because there are too many cheetahs around! Years 2, 3 & 4 enjoyed a trip to @PaigntonZoo today as part of a postponed Science Week trip. Reception and Year 1 are heading over later this week. 🐆🐒🦒

Congratulations to Isla, Seb and Henry who finished in the top 8 in Somerset at the @SSAA_athletics championships held at The Bill Whistlecroft Arena today. 👏👏👏 A fantastic achievement, especially considering they’re all competing against athletes a year above them! 💪

The children were very excited to welcome some visitors today. The officers patiently answered all the children's questions about their job and gave a blast of the sirens, much to the children's delight! @ASPolice

@HalswayManor Please let us have the details, we can let our parents and carers know. The children thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Becki was very inspiring, and had the children eating from the palm of her hand.

@StPetersFirstS1 I hope they enjoyed it. They'd be very welcome to join the HYF programme if they'd like another opportunity to play together. The Juniors residential is 17-19 Aug.

We are one of the 5 schools selected to work with experienced folk musician & educator Becki Driscoll. The children learnt local songs, experimented with instruments, sang & learnt dances, putting the music in its living historical context. @HalswayManor #Localhistory #Heritage

It's great to see our Stories of the Hills project led by @HalswayManor delivering folk music to the next generation in West Somerset. 👏👏👏 @HeritageFundL_S @Quantockhills #folkmusic #loveheritage #nationallotteryheritagefund

A lovely end to a busy term, with an Easter service outside. Each class delighting our parent and carer audience with their singing and the retelling of the Easter story, followed by announcing the winners of the Easter Garden competition. #Easter2022

The whole school enjoyed watching a theatre production of the 'Secret Garden' at St Peter's this afternoon. "That was the best thing ever" exclaimed a child as they left hall at the end @MandMTheatrical #liveperformance

A lovely end to a busy week for St Peter's children. A visit from Helen and Harold the Giraffe - helping children to understand the importance of physical and emotional health. @CoramLifeEd @HelenMorrall #scarf

Looking after our school - and getting Springtime ready! The children had a lovely morning gardening, den building and competing in sporting activities. Thank you to the super Prefects from @danesfield_mid for their support and leadership.

Year 3 have been learning all about ancient Egyptian farming techniques in their history lessons. They have had a go at making their own model shadufs - a method of transferring water from the Nile to the crops being farmed. #primaryed #History #primary
