Cookery
This is our purpose built children's cookery room.
We are very fortunate at SS Peter and Paul school to have Mrs Brown to volunteer each week to do cookery classes with the children.
Each child does cookery three times a year.
The children follow recipes and then take what they have made home to their families for dinner!

Picture
History
Foundation stage and key stage one are introduced to history through sequencing, listening to stories and looking at photographs or exploring artefacts. Then as the children travel up the school the children go on to study the Romans, invaders and settlers, Exploration and Encounters, Tudors and Victorians, Ancient Egypt and Greece. All the children have the opportunity to visit museums and we also have visitors come into the school to present workshops and performances.

Geography 
Geography is presented to the younger children with the focus of themselves. They explore their home, school and the local environment. They continue to focus on what’s familiar to them by looking at journeys and transport, and why people decide to make journeys. 
In KS2 children develop their map skills and how to read and create various maps, they study settlements, and land use. They look at environmental issues by comparing and contrasting areas around Britain and locations around the world.

Picture
Art & Design 
Children have the opportunity to work with a wide range of media and materials to develop their skills and techniques in Art and Design.  These include the use of paint, pastel, charcoal, textile and clay.  They are encouraged to express themselves creatively in both 2D and 3D, indoors and outdoors.  Often, children study the work of another artist, considering how a piece was made and how it made them feel.  They discuss and evaluate their own work and that of their peers.  Children’s art work is valued and displayed prominently throughout the school.


Picture
D.T. 
Children are encouraged to develop their skills in D.T. through practical tasks and projects.  They are invited to find solutions to a range of problems.  Children are engaged in their own designing and planning, testing of ideas, and product creations.  They discuss, evaluate and amend their solutions/ products throughout the project, and support each other to improve upon original ideas.

Picture
Personal, Social and Health Education (PSHE) 
Personal, Social and Health Education encourages children to take responsibility for their own health and well-being. PSHE will enable children to develop important life skills, such as how to react in difficult situations, and to learn about rights and responsibilities for themselves and others. In doing this, it is anticipated that self-confidence and esteem will be promoted.

Picture
Physical Education (PE) 
Physical Education is an essential part of school life and children have the opportunity to develop a variety of skills, confidence and self-esteem through a wide range of sporting activities such as gymnastics, dance, tennis, multiskills and basketball. The PE curriculum extends beyond the school day and varied selections of extra-curricular clubs are offered during the school week. Swimming is also an integral part of the curriculum and is offered to Key Stage 2.
