There were cheers and tears of joy as students opened their A level results at School this morning.  As a year group, almost half of results achieved are A or A* and 66% of all results were A* to B, which is a wonderful achievement for the students at St Peter’s Catholic School.  These achievements are a credit to the hard work and determination of the students and we are very proud of them. 

A special mention should go to Finn McManus with 4 A* grades and is going to study Chemical Physics, and Charlotte Browning with 3 A*s. Other students who achieved exceptional grades are: Nadia Fernandes, Alice Harrison, Joe Harwood, Victoria Archer, Gemma Pearce, Caitlin Gillard, Sam Marshall, Amber Penter, Will Preston, Cameron Taylor, John Taylor, Char Terry, Nick Thorn, Ella Wood, Sam Wyles and Isabella Hillery. Nearly all of our students have accepted their university offers, with students going to study medicine, veterinary, engineering, English literature, geography, computer science, marine biology, accountancy, psychology and paramedic science to name a few. We are incredibly proud of all of our students. 

Within the joy of these results, there are many stories, where students have overcome adversity or personal challenges which make the accomplishment even more special. We are so grateful for all the hard work and effort that has gone into supporting, encouraging and nurturing the students from the staff and the endless support that the parents have given their young people and the school. It is exciting to see them leave St Peter’s and start a new chapter. We wish them all the best for the future.

Year 12 Spanish students at St Peter's celebrated the end of their exams in early June with a special tortilla cooking lesson at school, at the culmination of which they ate and enjoyed every last morsel they had lovingly created.

"They all really enjoyed it and produced cracking omelettes or 'tortillas' in Spanish," says  Mrs Mortimer, Teacher in charge of Spanish, who was delighted as they followed her own Spanish recipe. Thank you to Mrs August, Head of Food Technology, who was the tortilla judge and who was most impressed with the four omelette entries in the competition, selecting the omelette made by Emma and Shadee as the overall winner! Well done to all!

This year we are raising money for Aid to the Church in Need as we continue exploring our theme of Having Faith and what that means in today’s world. This is an extremely important charity for the Catholic Church as it helps to advance the Christian religion by supporting and promoting the Church, especially in countries where Christians are suffering persecution or discrimination. The other main strand of their charitable work is providing practical assistance and pastoral care for persons in need, especially those who are living in, or are refugees from, countries where they face persecution.

This charity was chosen by our Sixth Formers following a talk about the charity and our students wanted to raise as much as possible to help this excellent charity so have chosen it as the our charity for Feast Day.

Students are encouraged to gain sponsorship for this event. The links are all below  to make it easy for parents, family and friends to access these and to help us raise as much as possible for our chosen charity. Over the last few years we have raised over £10,000 for our chosen charities so we would like to raise as much as that again!

Congratulations to the Year 7 side who played in the Surrey finals and won a Silver medal. Sadly they only missed out on Gold due to goal difference.

The girls also won the Surrey Values Award, as they demonstrated the games values and showed true sportsmanship throughout every game. With a smile on their faces, they were polite and played with passion and always thanked the referees after every game.

The girls involved were: Chelsea C, Aleena K, Martina C, Harriet M, Orlaith B, Evie F, Sophie W, Katie C, Ella H, Bella D.

We are all very proud of their acheivements.
