Paris Art Trip – Day One & Two Our students arrived safely in Paris yesterday and wasted no time beginning their cultural adventure! Day one included a visit to the stunning Galeries Lafayette, an evening meal at Flams, and a stroll along the river to soak up the Parisian atmosphere. This morning, after a hearty breakfast, the group set off to the Arc de Triomphe before heading to the Sacré-Cœur. A wonderful opportunity to experience world-famous art, architecture, and culture, and to see our values of Respect, Service, and Aspiration shining through every step of the way. #WeAreSPCA #FlourishingStudents #CulturalExperiences

Yesterday our Battlefields students visited the British Memorial in Normandy, where they laid a wreath for the fallen and joined together in a moving act of remembrance and reflection led by Mr Reade. The group then spent some time in Arromanche – enjoying the beach, exploring the town and even a little shopping – before checking out of the hotel this morning to begin their final day. So far today they have visited Pegasus Bridge and the Moreville Battery & Museum, where students gained a powerful insight into life inside wartime bunkers for both German and Allied forces. Now, after a packed few days of history, learning and reflection, students are settling onto the coach ready for the journey back to the ferry port. Their behaviour throughout has been impeccable, and they have shown respect, maturity and a genuine curiosity every step of the way. Safe journey home SPCA and St Regis! #WeAreSPCA #RespectServiceAspiration #FlourishingStudents

Our Battlefields Trip has been a deeply moving and memorable journey so far. Students have taken time to reflect at Tyne Cot, paid their respects at the German Cemetery in Langemark, explored Ypres (with a little shopping and a walk through the Menin Gate), and visited The Somme and Newfoundland Park – land gifted to Canada by France in honour of their fallen. Yesterday, Miss Lord brought the day to a close at Thiepval with a thoughtful period of reflection. Today, our group continues their learning in Normandy, beginning at Omaha Beach to understand the significance of the D-Day landings. A powerful reminder of the importance of remembrance, respect, and learning from history. #WeAreSPCA #FlourishingStudents #RespectServiceAspiration #BattlefieldsTrip

The St Peter's Way
Respect
“Do nothing from selfish ambition or conceit, but in humility count others more significant than yourselves. Look not only to your own interests but also to the interest of others.” (Philippians 2:3 - 4) We seek to develop responsibility and Truthfulness through our students’ experience at the academy.
Service
“But in your hearts revere Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for hope that is in you; yet do it with gentleness and respect.” (1 Peter 3:15) We seek to develop Compassion and Empathy through our students’ experience at the academy.
Aspiration
“Love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul, mind and strength and love others as yourself.” (Mark 12:30) We seek to develop resilience and perseverance through our students’ experience at the academy.
Above everything, love one another earnestly
1 Peter 4:8 - We seek to nurture our students in their quest for knowledge and wisdom, enabling them to flourish as lifelong learners who seek to love God and serve the community by living life in all its fullness.
Proud to be a part of Three Spires Trust
