Butterflies

We are delighted to welcome you to St. Peter’s and share in the excitement of beginning your school journey!

As a proud member of the Butterflies, you will spend your days learning, playing, creating and exploring. We hope your time here is full of adventures and wonderful new friendships.

Be sure to check our class page often as we will be sharing photos of the magical moments and special memories we create together.

We are Reception Superstars!

Check out the fantastic 'Reception Superstar' crowns we have made! The children have been busy settling into their new classroom and making lots of new friends!

Twinkle Twinkle we are stars!

Humpty Dumpty

The Butterfly Class were shining bright as we began our topic “Twinkle Twinkle We Are Stars!” They have enjoyed learning about their first nursery rhyme, Humpty Dumpty! The children had so much fun trying to put him back together again using tape, plasters, glue and even staples. They also made their very own playdough Humpty Dumpty's and crafted brilliant dangling Humpty Dumpty's with carefully folded paper arms and legs. What a cracking start to our new adventure!

Incy Wincy Spider

We have made our very own Incy Wincy Spider's using playdough! We had lots of fun moulding and sculpting our little spider friends!

Tour of the School

We have been on a tour of our new school. We saw lots of books in the library, met the office staff and went in all the other classrooms where some of us even bumped into a few familiar faces! 

Reception Reading and Phonics Workshop

The Butterflies had a fantastic morning and evening taking part in lots of exciting and fun Phonic activities. The children and even the adults were excited to splat the sound, spin the wheel and catch the ping pong balls to practise their letter recognition. The chidlren also practised their blending in a variety of ways and practised their name writing. Thank you to all the parents that attended! The chidlren wanted to do it all again!

Butterflies PE

The Butterflies have been busily learning how to safely negotiate space and listen to instructions within their PE lessons. They have been real superstars and have enjoyed learning some fun games along the way! This week we learnt the game 'cups and saucers' and 'raiders'.
