PRIMARY SCHOOL - Peterchurch Primary School ended the Christmas term with a lovely performance by the children of Angels on High. This was enjoyed by all who attended and took part. The PTA provided coffee and mince pies afterwards. On the last morning of term, a theatre group performed Robin Hood for the children and this was followed by a Christmas Lunch and Disco. The school has been as busy as ever. Class 1 had a visit from Heather Buchanan, author and illustrator of the Matilda Mouse Books and parents were invited along to buy books signed by Heather Buchanan for their children after the session. The whole school took part and learned circus skills recently. Some parents also participated along with the children. Later that day all the skills were displayed for parents to watch.Tai-Chi sessions now take place at school on a Tuesday at 8.30am. This is for pupils and parents alike and a great chance to learn this ancient art which aids concentration and focus. The juniors are involved in a creative dance workshop with a dance teacher which will last 10 weeks culminating with a performance at the end.
