Are you a past St Peter’s student? If so, you are warmly invited to our alumni reunion Spring Garden Party which will be taking place on Saturday 13th May from 2pm to 5pm at the school.
This is an informal event where you will be able to enjoy a welcome glass of Pimms, an afternoon cream tea, and music provided by our string quartet. There will be an opportunity to have a tour of St Peter’s, hopefully meet up with past school friends and look through the school photo archives!
We would be delighted to see you and share your memories of your time at St Peter’s.
In a special part of our Religious Education curriculum we study a number of world religions. It is an important aspect of preparing for life in British society, a society that is multi-faith. In Year 8 we study Judaism and to supplement the classroom based learning we recently visited the North West Surrey Synagogue (a Jewish place of worship).
St Peter's wishes you and your family a very happy Christmas. School will be closed from 12.30 on Friday 16th December until Monday 2nd January inclusive.
Congratulations to our Young Enterprise Sixth Formers Team who competed in the Dragons’ Den on 16th November 2016 at the Guildhall in Guildford.
The team (Lucy, Ava, Daniel and Will) was victorious winning first prize of £100 for their Little Tin Can Company (specialising in floral displays and table decorations).
Naturally we are very proud of their achievement, especially as St Peter’s was the only state school in the competition, beating 14 other private schools.
This was the message to St Peter’s Sixth Form students from Edward Bonham Carter, Vice Chairman of Jupiter Investments. Your degree does not have to be in Maths or Economics (though this can be helpful) to work in the financial sector, and just as important, is the quality and excellence of your thinking and presentation skills.
Congratulations to the Year 11 Football Team who travelled to South Croydon to play Whitgift last night. They came away with an excellent 4-1 victory courtesy of goals from Baffour, Felix and Mackie (2). They now advance through to the next round of the County cup!
Thank you to all our parents who attended the E-Safety Parents' Evening on the 3rd October 2016.
Dr Anthony Towey from St Mary’s University gave our annual Theology Lecture on the Bible as a source of authority. We were particularly pleased that Dr Towey agreed to give the lecture as he was directly involved in the recent changes to the A Level specifications. Over 100 people attended, a mixture of A Level Religious Studies students from St Peter’s as well as from other local schools, parents and staff.
Wednesday 16th November from 7pm to 9pm - no need to book - everyone is welcome
