On Wednesday, we held our May Procession outside. Our service included singing from our choir, artwork from children and teachers, poems and hymns. Thank you so much to everyone that attended and the donation of flowers. You can currently see this presented in our Foyer.
Last week, our youngest children paraded their Easter bonnets they had made to the parents and the rest of the school. Some wonderful designs were on show and such a wonderful effort made, thank you children and to the family members who supported them.
On Friday, the winners of the Easter Garden and Easter Bonnet were announced:
Congratulations to Jagoda in Year 3 and Shraya in Reception. Well done to all the children that entered the competition.
Yesterday, we had a wonderful turn out for our community event in transforming our garden area. Parents, children and staff came together to help develop the area outside of Years 5 and 6. Including: creating a new sensory pathway; creating some new planting beds, cleaning away debris and rotting fencing and planting some seeds. Thank you to everyone that attended and a huge thank you to Mrs Walker for organising this event.
Congratulations to all of our Year 6 children on their Confirmation last night. A wonderful occasion witnessed by friends, family and staff.
Today our afternoon Nursery visited Newbridge House as one of their acts of Advent Kindness. The children decorated the tree for the residents with the decorations they had made. They sang Jingle Bells and Baa Baa sheep and were rewarded with a cake. Everyone loved it and we were invited to go back again! Well done Nursery!
On Friday, Mrs Byrne and Mrs O’Leary took some of our children to the Remembrance parade that took place through Wolverhampton city centre – commemorating the lives of the people that fought for us in the war. This was attended by schools from all areas of Wolverhampton including the other schools in our academy.
This morning, parents joined year 5 in their Class Liturgy. The children shared their prayers and reading from the Gospel inspired by St Teresa and Little Way Week and the miracles of Jesus.
This morning was also an opportunity for parents to meet our new Music teacher – Miss Barrett. Miss Barrett performed one of the new songs the children have been learning.
Many thanks to everyone who joined us.

On Tuesday 11th September, Father Mark brought the Blessed Sacrament into our school hall for a service of Adoration. We joined all of the Catholic Primary Schools in the Diocese to take part in this special event simultaneously.
Last Tuesday, we had a visit from Kings Camp to promote physical activity.
Kings Camp is a UK registered charity and their mission is to get children active, having fun and learning together.
For 25 years they’ve been instilling a love of activity from an early age, making sport enjoyable and accessible, no matter the ability. They create programmes that are fun and inspiring and their Red Tops are selected for their outgoing and energetic personalities, their dedication to child development and their ability to inspire children, we call this magic formula The Kings Factor.
We certainly witnessed this at SS Peter and Paul, with our Red Top (Joe) providing the children with non-stop enthusiasm and fun games.
Kings Camp host holiday clubs at Tettenhall College, and we would really recommend signing your children up!
