Students and staff at SSPP will be celebrating all things reading this Thursday as part of our World Book Day celebrations. There will be competitions and activities going on throughout the day and across the week in which students, and staff, will be taking part.
Students are permitted to dress up as fictional characters on the day and are encouraged to take part and spend some time in the library where the world of books awaits them!

Join the My School Fund initiative to help boost our budget
We’re pleased to announce that St Peter and St Paul Catholic Voluntary Academy is part the My School Fund initiative. This innovative scheme allows us to boost our school’s budget with your help.
How does it work?
Parents, guardians and carers can sign up to the scheme for free and start earning cashback on the things they buy in participating retail stores, including Sainsbury’s and Argos. As you spend you’ll receive 2% cashback in the form of eGift vouchers that can be redeemed in participating stores. By adding a credit/debit card and linking your spend to our school on the My School Fund website we’ll also earn 1% cashback on your spend.
Add that all up across our school’s network of families and together we can all make a big difference!
How to get involved
Visit myschoolfund.org to register for free, link to St Peter and St Paul Catholic Voluntary Academy and add your credit/debit card. From there, everything you spend in participating stores will go towards helping boost our budget, plus your own! Sign up today at myschoolfund.org
Adding a credit/debit card
Once you have registered you will be asked to link a card to your My School Fund account. This information is protected using bank level encryption. The site does not ask you to provide any card information that will allow anyone to make a payment on your card – i.e. it does not ask for the card security code (CVC or CVV). More information about data protection and security is available in the FAQs section of the My School Fund website when you are logged in to your account.
We hope you can support us in boosting our budget, plus your own!
