We are almost halfway through our @MovemberSchools campaign and have already beaten last year's total of £2,146. Massive congrats to the pupils and staff, and let's keep on mo-ving through the rest of the month @STP_SixthForm @StPetersYork

Well the @StPetersYork boys and girls are having a wonderful run for @MovemberSchools . Currently total over £3500 which places us 10th in the country. This Thursday's whole school 'ball-a-thon' will be great fun for a great cause. @MovemberUK https://t.co/LJR090RaTm

I know that many of my friends and family have generously donated to Movember UK before. If anyone feels the urge to send a pound or two my way this year the link to my page is below. My school is once again competing in the School's Challenge

One of our own! Pupil Alfie has now raised over £1000 by doing a huge amount of physical exercise for @MovemberUK . Amazing effort. Well done Alfie! Everyone at @StPetersYork is proud of you @STP_SixthForm @MovemberSchools @J_M_P_Walker

@AmitLahavGecko Brilliant! Lovely to see Al N there!

[John Leary @johnleary1]

Excited about their examined performances on Thursday. So many thought-provoking and sensitively handled pieces.

[St Peter's Drama @StPetersDrama]

Eight excellent GCSE devised dress rehearsal performances this evening. What fantastic variety of style & subject matter. Well done for all your hard work. Thank you @SLBdesigner for turnaround of 8 technical rehearsals in a day. Looking forward to see them again Thursday at 6pm.

And then to round off the spectacular day of learning, the students took part in a post-show discussion with Amit and the ensemble.

They shared some incredibly thoughtful responses to the show and asked some fantastic questions!

First night of this today. Fantastic to see promenade piece with mix of traditional and modern music and some of the most incredible plays. Loved By the Bog of Cats by Marina Carr and Observe the Sons of Ulster Marching Towards the Somme by Frank McGuinness
