Life is richer at Sts Peter and Paul!

Life is richer at Sts Peter and Paul!

Welcome to the official blog created by students to chronicle their experiences during Enrichment Weeks.

On these pages you’ll find personal accounts from our students discussing the wide range of activities they enjoyed both in college and off site.

Visits included residential trips to Iceland with the Geography department, France with the History department and Barcelona with the Maths department. Year 10 and 11 students will visited New York with the Business Studies teachers, while English staff and students explored creative writing skills in locations as diverse as Florida and Yorkshire, where students worked alongside a poet, a novelist and a playwright to set their imaginations on fire.

Back at College, students will take part in retreats to explore and deepen their faith. They will hear from inspirational speakers, attended careers workshops and take part in a host of music, dance and drama activities.

Our College Principal, Wendy White, said, “Enrichment Week is a fantastic opportunity for students to broaden their horizons and learn outside the classroom. It is experiences like these which testify to the diverse, exciting and challenging curriculum at Sts Peter and Paul Catholic College, and how we focus on the development of the whole child.”

Daily updates from home and abroad will allow students to record and share their memorable learning experiences with family and friends.

We hope that you enjoy reading about our experiences on these pages as much as we have enjoyed putting them together.

Look out for the next instalment of the blog following Enrichment Week in July 2015….

This is aSam Kelly is a past student of Saints Peter and Paul Catholic College. She is currently studying at Bath Spa University, and as part of her course she is travelling to Jamaica as part of an AIDS/HIV outreach programme. This is a unique experience for her, if you have had the pleasure to teach Sam you will know she has always been proactive with helping others, especially when she was a student leader and a Gold Duke of Edinburgh Candidate in our Sixth Form.

To help with fundraising she is going to be selling Valentines Roses all week under the arch near Sixth Form. The roses cost £1 and the rose will be delivered personally to the person who has been sent the Valentine rose.

Sam just needs to know the name of the person she is delivering the rose to, their form room and the message you want to send.

She will be taking orders at break and lunch times on Wednesday and Thursday.

She will also be coming into the staff room if anyone is interested.
