If you would like to find out about St Peter’s Primary school here are some facts.

Head Teacher

Our head teacher is called Mrs Roberts. She sometimes takes our assemblies. She takes adults for trips around the school. She introduces new people to the school. She works in the office by the entrance hall.

Teachers

Our teachers are called Mr Baykaa-Murray, Mrs Clarke, Mrs Owen, Mrs Slade, Mrs Heslam, Mrs Holmes, Mr Barnard, Mrs Deacon and Mrs Webber. We have some other teachers. They are all kind and helpful.

Lessons

We have Literacy, Maths, Science, indoor and outdoor P.E, ICT and History. We also have some extra lessons like number bonds and spelling.

Where are we?

St Peter’s is situated in Portishead (North Somerset). We are near a range of other schools including High Down and Gordano (a high school.)

School Times

We go to school at quarter to nine and go home at three fifteen. We have break at ten twenty-five and lunch from 10 past 12 to fifteen.

Merits and effort points

Merits are points you get for good work. If you get ten you get a certificate. Effort points are things you get for making a good effort. At the end of the week we count them up and if you’re one of the ones who has the most you get a gold certificate and if you are one of the ones who have the second most you get a silver one. 

I hope you enjoyed the facts and now hope to visit us in the future.

We also sent pictures. There will be lots more photos on the Photos pages soon.

At Christmas time the Reception, Year 1 and Year 2 Classes get together to put on a production for their parents. This year the production is called 'The Bossy Christmas Fairy' and they have been practising hard ready to show their parents. The musical teaches children about Christmas customs and the moral that being bossy and judging only by appearances is not acceptable. The Bossy Christmas Fairy is choosing only the prettiset decorations for her tree, discarding even the Nativity figures until she learns the important lesson that appearance is not everything.
