Trust Respect Unity Excellence #TRUE St Peter's Father Figures The St Peter’s Father Figures is about engaging the Father Figures in our school. There’s evidence to say that there is a strong influence on a child’s academic achievement, social success, health and well-being and attitude towards learning when fathers are involved. This can come about at a school level when there is consistent discussion and action with the child where both parents are working in collaboration with the school, and teachers, in regards to expectations, policies and procedures. We welcome all Father Figures in our school community to be part of any initiatives rolled out during the year, and we look forward to meeting you all. Should you have any questions, please feel free to email Matt Nettleton at: matt.nettleton@cewa.edu.au St Peter's Father Figures Run Club The initiative will be led by members of the Dads of St Peter’s Committee with the aim to promote health and well-being, and to engage the parents in our community, especially all father figures, to participate with their child in a variety of fun running activities. This includes relays, games and a circuit. We strongly encourage all parents to stay and participate in the activities as an opportunity to spend quality time with your child. Should you be unable to stay, students will be supervised by our dedicated staff who will be assisting on the day. Further Information: – The Run Club will be conducted at Grand Prom each Thursday morning from Week 5-10, starting at 7:45am. Students and parents can arrive and join in at any time. – Running Club is for everyone from Kindy – Year 6 – Students who participate in the Run Club are permitted to wear their Sports uniform for the duration of the day. – At the end of each session, students will continually run laps of a circuit, with each lap recorded. These laps will be tallied and will go towards a class total. The more students running, the more laps can be achieved! – Students will be walked back to school by the teachers for an 8:30am start. Should you have any questions, please feel free to email Matt Nettleton at: matt.nettleton@cewa.edu.au

At St Peter's Primary School, Inglewood our core purpose as a Catholic school is to inspire our students to learn, achieve and to serve in truth. There is a striving to see beyond appearances to greater realities and true happiness. Welcome from the Principal My name is Daine Burnett, and it is my privilege to welcome you to our school. I was fortunate enough to be appointed as the Principal at St Peter's Primary School for 2026. Previous to this position, I have been involved in leadership roles within Catholic Education Western Australia for over twenty-five years. St Peter's Primary School caters for students from Pre Kindy through to Year Six, in a unique environment, which offers opportunities for each child to develop emotionally, spiritually, socially, physically and cognitively. This is achieved by providing and coordinating educational activities through a whole school approach, which develops an awareness and understanding of concepts necessary for life and an educational experience within the Catholic faith. Our core mission is to inspire students to learn, achieve and serve with integrity. Our core values TRUE - Trust, Respect, Unity, Excellence - are central to our school’s philosophy. We aim to nurture each child’s unique abilities, providing an environment where they can flourish emotionally, spiritually, academically and socially. By fostering a love for learning, we encourage students to look beyond appearances, seek deeper truths, and discover true happiness. We strive to develop each child’s full potential by recognising their individual giftedness. Learning is facilitated through a developmental approach that promotes cooperative and inquiry-based learning, which are strengthened using up to date technology. We provide a relevant, comprehensive and varied curriculum to suit a wide range of student needs, interests and abilities. All of these processes assist each child to be the best that they can be. We believe that parents are the foremost educators of their children, and our partnership with families is essential to student success. We encourage active parental involvement in school life. Together, we create a strong community spirit, where children learn not only from structured lessons but also from the adults around them. This partnership between home and school is mutually supportive, and it is our goal to work together in nurturing and guiding each child. At St Peter's, parents and staff join in a shared mission: to support the personal growth and educational development of every student, helping them become fully integrated, compassionate and capable individuals. We are very fortunate at St Peter's to have a very talented group of staff members, who see their roles in educating the children at St Peter's as their vocation. The time, energy, effort and expertise given to the children is second to none, and while we are well-resourced, the greatest resource we have is our wonderful staff. St Peter's is a strong community that works together as one with parents, students, staff and the parish to foster an environment that can enable us all to reach our fullest potential. I look forward to seeing you in the future and hope that you will take the time to journey with us through our school and will soon see life at St Peter's Primary School.

Students explore and determine ways to understand our world under the overarching concepts of: Biological Science; Chemical Science; Earth and Space Science; and Physical Sciences.

Pre Primary - Year Two students learn fundamental movement skills. Students perform these skills in minor game play. Year Three - Six students combine fundamental movement skills with learning sport specific strategies. Students practise these skills in modified games. Students learn how to participate in an ethically and fair competitive sporting environment by participating in Swimming, Cross-Country and Athletic Carnivals. Auslan St Peter’s Primary school community is one that celebrates diversity and multiculturalism. Auslan fosters a more inclusive school environment where every voice—spoken or signed—is valued. It adds a meaningful dimension to community gatherings, including welcomes and prayers, where appropriate. Auslan encourages empathy, patience and active listening. Students learn to communicate in new ways, deepening their emotional intelligence and interpersonal skills. Teaching students Auslan from a young age offers a wide range of benefits, not only for Deaf and hard-of-hearing children, but also for hearing students. Importantly, research and practice show that early exposure to Auslan can enhance English reading and writing skills, among other developmental gains. Visual Arts Participating in our Visual Arts Program allows students at St Peter's the opportunity to experience and explore the concepts of artists, artwork, and audience. Students experiment with ways of expressing ideas and communicating using a range of media. Two- and three-dimensional media and techniques such as drawing, painting, printing, pottery, printing, and collage are developed in weekly sessions. Connections are made to local, national, and international artists as students discover the importance of art in the world around us.

Trust Respect Unity Excellence #TRUE Key Initiatives Inquiry 'Simply put, inquiry is the personal path of questioning, investigating and reasoning that takes us from not knowing to knowing' (Ferlazzo & Boss, 2015). Inquiry at St Peter's is meaningful and allows for authentic inquiry projects which has nurtured our students passions, talents, curiosities and interests. Students have taken ownership over their own learning and to reach personal goals. We have integrated the TRUE Inquiry Cycle into each classroom, which has developed our own critical and creative thinking skills through the different stages of our inquiry cycle - Wonder, Investigate & Explain, Design & Create, Share and Reflect. To cater for each child’s individual passions, curiosities and interests, each classroom has created ‘wonder’ walls and/or journals to encourage students to ask questions beyond the inquiry project. Inquiry allows students to develop and strengthen their critical and creative thinking skills! Don’t forget – ‘Curiosity is the fuel for discovery, inquiry and learning!’ 1:1 iPad Program Years 4 - 6 St Peter's has implemented a 1:1 iPad learning program for Y ears 4-6. Year 4 students are supplied with a new iPad, managed by the school with all necessary apps and available for home use. Providing the devices for home use can help to bridge the gap between school and home learning, allowing students to continue their learning outside of the classroom. Students having access to iPads can offer several benefits, such as improved access to educational resources, develop digital literacy skills, enhanced collaboration and communication, personalised learning experiences, improved organistion, increased productivity and increased engagement in the learning process. Here at St Peter's we use Microsoft Office 365 tools to teach, learn, lead, administer and collaborate and these are embedded in the teaching and learning practices of the school. Overall, implementing a 1:1 iPad learning program for Years 4-6 can have many benefits for students and can help to prepare them for a digital future. Wellbeing Program Over the past three years, a cult ure of wellbeing has been adopted across the school and benefits staff, students and the family community. It has had a c onsiderable impact on the classroom environment, emotional literacy of the students and overall wellbeing of all members at St Peter’s Primary School. The whole school wellness program equips students with the knowledge and strategies to tackle our increasingly challenging modern world and a number of initiatives are run at the school to place the physical, mental and emotional wellbeing of each staff member and student as a priority.

To support families during this change, there will be a transition period from the beginning of Term 4, 2026 through to the commencement of the 2028 school year. During this time, students may continue to wear existing uniform items while families gradually move to the refreshed uniform requirements. We would like to acknowledge and thank Uniform Concepts, our uniform supplier, for their ongoing support throughout this process. They have worked closely with the school and have been extremely accommodating in assisting with the development and implementation of these changes. Thank you also to our students, staff and families for the valuable feedback, conversations and suggestions shared throughout this journey. While not every suggestion could be implemented, all feedback was carefully considered in making decisions that best cater for the needs of our school and students. We also acknowledge the engagement of the School Advisory Council through this process and thank them for their endorsement of the uniform refresh. We are confident that this refresh will provide a practical, inclusive and contemporary uniform for our students for many years to come.
