TWO’S DAY

Tuesday 22.02.22

Bring a coin with a ‘2’ in it (2p, 20p, £2)

in exchange for a non-uniform day

all funds raised will go towards raising money for the outdoor classroom

To kickstart our year of fundraising and to allow us to continue to raise funds towards our outdoor learning area, we are excited to introduce ‘Challenge 2022’. 

During February half term we are encouraging our pupils to each raise £20.22!  You can do this individually, as a family or as a group.  How you do it is up to you.

You could use the number 22 as inspiration…you could do a 22km sponsored walk or bike ride over the week, help your family with 22 jobs, score 22 goals, sell 22 cup cakes, perform a 22 minute sponsored dance or show… the possibilities are endless… we can’t wait to see what you come up with. 

£20.22 is your target but there is no minimum amount needed to join in the fun and no maximum should you raise more.

There will be a prize for the pupil who raises the money in the most imaginative or creative way.  Please send photographs to your class email to share with the rest of your class. 

Please return any money raised by Friday 25^th February 2022. 

Back in November, the Eco-Committee presented the IKEA Eco School Project Competition to the school in an assembly. They asked for designs for a wildlife garden in the grounds of St Peter’s.

Well done to Year 5, who produced some amazing designs. The Eco-Committee had a tough job judging the entries, but eventually agreed on a tie for first place, with the winning designs coming from Zainah and Isla. Esme conjured up the winning name for the garden, ‘The Happy Hideaway’, should the project go ahead! Scarlett McC and Ivy also put a lot of thought into their designs, so all five children received a prize for their efforts. Well done!

The Eco-Committee submitted their final design to IKEA in December. Earlier this month we discovered that we had been short-listed and had to go to IKEA to do a ‘Dragon’s Den’ style presentation. Isla, Esme, Ivy and Jude were remarkably composed and did an amazing job of presenting our idea to the five very important-looking judges, who sat behind their desks with pen and paper, writing notes. Well done, you did St Peter’s proud!

We will know if we have been successful by the 25^th January.
