The Chair of Governors at St Peter’s Church of England Primary School in Rochdale has received high recognition from the Diocese of Manchester for her faithful service as a school governor for over 20 years! Margaret Sutton received an invitation to attend a special ceremony at Manchester Cathedral to recognise this momentous achievement.  Margaret was presented with a certificate from Rt Revd Mark Davies, Bishop of Middleton, Diocese of Manchester who was also joined by Rt Revd Stephen Conway, Bishop of Ely.

Headteacher, Aelred Whelan, stated “We are blessed to have Margaret as our Chair of Governors; she is extremely supportive of our school and is very knowledgeable having spent a significant amount of her time teaching at the school before becoming a governor. She is a huge asset to St Peter’s and must have enhanced many young people’s lives over her many years of dedicated service. Margaret helped ensure governance of the school was graded as outstanding during the recent Ofsted inspection this year. I couldn’t be more proud!”

3G Let there be Light!, by Mrs Gill

3G recently visited MOSI to learn about light how  it  travels, how light is made and what  are natural and man made sources of light.  they also got to explore the lab zone where they explored differnet scientific principles They had a fantastic day  and were impeccably behaved. smiley

3M take a trip back in time whilst discovering light!, by Mr Murray

Date: 9th Nov 2017 @ 2:19pm

Hi all,

During our recent trip to MoSI in Manchester, we learned so much! The class were excellent and demonstrated impeccable behaviour and manners throughout! 

We had a workshop about light where we were taught about the properties of it. We learned what light was made of and how it travels. The children were active in discussion and showed a great interest.

We also had a demonstration of different engines. Here was a nice opportunity for them to see how technology has advanced over time and our museum guides get the children asking many questions.

Finally, some free time allowed the children to explore an experiment in the lab zone. They were exploring different scientific principles and all looked to have a great time. They could tell me all sorts about what they had learned and experienced. 

I would like to thank Mrs Green, Mrs Baleem, Mrs Asghar and Mrs Murray for supporting Mrs Gill and myself. The trip could not have gone so smoothly. 

Thank you for all of your support.

Mr Murray 

3M Go Green!!!, by Mr Murray

Date: 9th Nov 2017 @ 2:09pm

Good afternoon,

Part of our science topic required us to understand where soil comes from. Something which we all take for granted as we can find it in vast supply around. 

We thought it would be a good idea to make our own soil!

We showed how you can take organic material, rock and worms and create your very own compost. 

Enjoy
