Grandparents and Special Friends’ Week
It has been a joy to welcome Grandparents and Special Friends on campus over the past four days. Our students adored introducing their special visitors to their friends and teachers as well as proudly sharing examples of their learning too. As I walked past classrooms filled with multiple generations, students could be seen reading, playing games and talking animatedly, giving guests a window into our students’ world. Those who were able to attend the Headmaster’s tour of the historic precinct, were treated to an insightful lesson into the establishment and architecture of the walls and fields of St Peter’s College.
Our intergenerational visitors are so special, as education truly is a shared journey—one that spans generations and connects us through shared experiences, a love for learning, and of course the boys!
To all who joined us, thank you for making Grandparents and Special Friends’ Week a resounding success. The connections, stories, and support mean the world to students and teachers alike.
Thanks to Year 6 students, Ryan, Austin and Sean for playing the piano as our visitors arrived on Wednesday and Thursday morning. To the Junior School Friends of Saints committee members, thank you for your support in ushering visitors to locations and to the St Peter’s College Foundation for providing morning tea for visitors and students.
I look forward to seeing you around the grounds soon!
Enjoy the long weekend ahead.
Kind regards,
Jasmine Taylor
