Baden-Powell & St Peter's CE Junior School

Baden-Powell & St Peter's CE Junior School It is my great pleasure to welcome you to the vibrant and positive community
that is Baden-Powell and St. Peter’s Church of England Junior School.

Our vision statement encompasses our core purpose: we strive to achieve our
very best, so that we may flourish and grow, in a vibrant community of learning
with Christ at our side. Our vision is firmly rooted in our attitudes and relationships
with one another, with ourselves and with God. Our sense of purpose is embodied
in our five core values which permeate throughout school life: Aspiration, Compassion,
Friendship, Respect and Resilience. We are hugely proud of our school which is extremely well regarded by the community that
it serves. Baden-Powell & St Peter’s is an energetic place of learning, defined by its Christian
ethos; a commitment to excellence and a core set of values, which are rooted in everything we
do. There is something wonderful in everyone, consequently every child is seen as a unique
individual within God’s creation. Our dedicated staff aim to provide a nurturing and caring
learning environment where every child is encouraged and supported to achieve their full
potential. As a large school, we are able to bring considerable resources to bear and provide
your children with a wide and varied range of opportunities and experiences. Our children
thrive in an engaging and positive environment where they all have the chance to succeed,
develop and grow. Above all, our school is a happy place, the success of which is underpinned
by the positive relationships which exist between all members of the school community, adults
and children alike. This page, along with our school website, aim to offer you a ‘window’ into life at our
school, giving you a real insight into the busy and engaging curriculum as well as the positive
Christian ethos of our school; however, nothing is quite the same as visiting in person, which
you are warmly encouraged to do. We are always delighted to welcome parents and children
to our school as we value the partnership that forms from it.

🚌 The Life Education Bus has arrived at school! 🌟

From Tuesday 7 to Wednesday 14 October, we are delighted to welcome the Coram Life Education & SCARF team to our school as part of our PSHE curriculum.

Our children will take part in fun, interactive and age-appropriate workshops delivered by skilled educators in the new Life-Space Pop-Up Classroom. 🎉

The workshops will help children explore important topics around physical and emotional health, mental wellbeing and vital life skills. Through engaging activities, children will be encouraged to think about how they think, behave and learn, while developing strategies to support their own wellbeing both in school and beyond. 💚

The Life Education programme is much more than the workshops. Through SCARF (Safety, Caring, Achievement, Resilience and Friendship), Coram Life Education also provides a complete PSHE programme for every year group throughout the year. SCARF forms the framework of our school's Personal, Social, Health and Economic (PSHE) education curriculum.

We are looking forward to a fantastic week of learning, reflection and developing skills that will support our children now and throughout their lives! 🌈✨

It can be tricky deciding whether or not to keep your child off school if they are unwell. Your child can usually go to school with a mild cough or cold if they are otherwise well. If you do keep your child at home, it’s important to phone the school office on the first day and give a reason. This useful video clip provides a guide on illness absence and staying healthy.

Enjoy the videos and music you love, upload original content, and share it all with friends, family, and the world on YouTube.

Thank you for helping us keep our reading resources available for all our children. ❤️
