Planting Cabbages and Sprouts, by Mr Jolly
Date: 12th May 2021 @ 2:13pm
On Thursday 6th May, 4J went to the our new allotment. There was a large table for us to work around and a covered area so that the seeds we plant are protected until they grow strong enough to put in the raised bed area. We planted cabbage seeds and sprout seeds at the table using compost and the watering can. We now have to keep them watered for six weeks after that we can go and replant them in the outside soil. We had lots of fun.

Linking Project St Joseph's visit 4J - March 20, by Mr Jolly
Date: 12th Mar 2020 @ 5:09pm
Today (Wednesday 11th March), 4J met up with their linking project partner school - St Joseph's (Heywood).
St Jospeh's arrived promptly at 10am ready for a day of action, fun, learning and working together. Both classes started in the hall with some circle games. First up was cross the circle if...; a game played to mix the children up as they had congreagted with their school rather than mixing with each other. Next up was a game of 1,2,3 which starts off easy and gets progressively harder and more thought provoking but gets the children communcciating face to face with each other. After this, the children split into 4 teams and had to hold hands and get a hoop round it without breaking the circle (see the videos). This involved lots of key skills: cooperative, collaboration, communication, planning and team work amongst. The final activity in the hall was again in teams and again used all of these skills. Each team had to get from one end of the hall to the other without touching the floor. To do this, they each had two mats but only three people could be on a mat at any one time. Unfortunantely, the children were unable to complete this activity.
After a quick run around outside, the children split into two classrooms where they completed me and you drawings (see images). In the afternoon, in their pairs the children picked out a conversation starter from the jar and had to discuss whether they liked or disliked it. From this, they made a poster from each one and then put them together in a video called Great Together.
Overall, it was a fantastic day, where the children worked together and were behaved impeccably.

On Wednesday 4th March, 4J had the opporutnity to work with the a fantastic theatre company called 'Westend in Schools'. The company delivered a workshop that was based on the story 'Where the Wild Things are'.
As you can see in the pictures, the children played some warm up games followed by a quick look at the book. They then split into 3 groups to learn their part of the story for the drama. Next, everyone came back together to learn the second half of the drama piece. Finally, as you can see in the video, 4J performed the whole piece all together in one take.

Today, 4J visted the Rochdale Pioneer's museum on Toad Lane which is the site for the very first Co-op. They learnt all about how families used to live in the countryside and traded items before being forced into the towns and cities due to the industrial revolution. They then found out about how harsh their lives were with the factory owners ruling the towns and how the famous 12 pioneers broke free and formed the fair trade cooperative.

KS2 Christmas Production - Bah Humbug! - December 2019 , by Miss Hulse
Date: 18th Dec 2019 @ 10:04am
KS2 were amazing yesterday, in their Christmas production of Bah Humbug! A fantastic adaptation of Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol.
It was Christmas Eve and the miserable, miserly Ebenezer Scrooge, found himself visited by some rather unexpected characters! Through encounters with his former partner, Jacob Marley, and three very different ghosts, Scrooge was given the chance to revisit his past, weigh his present and glimpse at his future.
Scrooge took this once-in-a lifetime opportunity to change, and understood the true meaning of Christmas.

STEM day presentations - November 2019, by Miss Hulse
Date: 30th Nov 2019 @ 8:32am
Yesterday afternoon, all of the children at St Peter’s took part in a STEM day challenge. The children had to use all of their science, technology, engineering and mathematics skills to produce a working marble run. The degree of difficulty got progressively challenging throughout school years, starting with nursery creating a simple structure using Lego up to Year 6 introducing a pulley stystem. Once the marble runs were completed, each class held a vote to choose their most successful marble run, these were then sent to the hall ready to be judged. The winners were then selected from EYFS, KS1, LKS2 and UKS2, the winners then received their very own marble run. All of the children should be proud of their achievements, as they all worked extremely hard throughout the day!
