The Peterite 2016-2017 The Peterite 2016-2017 CONTENTS The Peterite 2016-2017 Issue No. 434 Contents Commemoration 4 Salvete 9 Valete 10 House Reports 14 Visits & Exchanges 34 News, Events & Activities 54 Creative & Cultural 90 Sport 119 Leavers’ Destinations 159 The Peterite 2016-2017 1 From the Head Master The Peterite once again brings together an uplifting and informative collection of images and reports of a year of high activity. During the course of the year we were anticipating the arrival of an Editorial inspection team from the Independent Schools Inspectorate, and they duly arrived in the first week of the summer term. The inspectors found that “all groups of pupils make rapid progress and achieve academic excellence” and “display excellent self-confidence and a commitment to achieve”. Their uniformly positive view of our School was formed by being amongst us for three days. The richness and diversity of opportunity, and the strength and values of our community shone through, as is the case in this magazine, which captures the spirit and events of 2016-2017. Readers and dippers-in will, I hope, sense that “camaraderie is present everywhere”. My warm appreciation and thanks go to all those on the editorial ream and to our meticulous and beady-eyed Editor, Mr Keith Wright, for delivering another wonderful almanac of life at St Peter’s School. 2 The Peterite 2016-2017 EDITORIAL Heads of School Heads of School 2016-17: Samuel Lightwing, Eleanor Caley, Thomas Dowdy and Emma Nelson Editorial This edition of The Peterite magazine marks the end of an era: it is the final issue in a long run for which the bulk of the photography has been done by Mr David Morris. The farewell article by Mr Edwards reveals some of the staggering statistics relating to Mr Morris’s work behind the camera, but the quality and range of the images themselves are much more impressive than the raw figures, and we owe him an enormous debt of gratitude for the way in which he has captured the spirit of school life over so many years. This edition has been produced with a good deal of assistance from Josh Booth and Hannah Hamilton (Director of External Relations), and I would like to thank them for their significant contributions behind the scenes. I would also like to thank Lauren Watson and David Peach, of Hutton Peach Design Solutions, for once again finding a striking style for the presentation of words and images. Finally, I must thank all the contributors, both pupils and staff, for their faithful recording of the myriad activities which take place beyond the walls of the classroom.

  • Report on the Second York Schools Science Quiz on Thursday 12 March, Thirteen Schools from in and Around York Came Together
    Report on the Second York Schools Science Quiz On Thursday 12 March, thirteen schools from in and around York came together for the second York Schools Science Quiz. Twenty two school teams competed along with four teacher teams (put together from the teachers who brought the pupils along from the various schools) for the trophies and prizes. Each team consisted of two Lower Sixth and two Fifth Form pupils or four Fifth Form pupils for those schools without Sixth Forms. The schools represented were Manor CE School, Canon Lee School, The Joseph Rowntree School, Huntington School, Archbishop Holgate’s School, Fulford School, All Saints School, Millthorpe School, St Peter’s School, Bootham School, The Mount School, Selby High School and Scarborough College. The event took place as part of the York ISSP and also the York Schools Ogden Partnership, with a large thank you to the Royal Society of Chemistry and the Institute of Physics for some of the prizes, the Rotary Club of York Vikings for the water bottles and the Ogden Trust for the 8 GB memory sticks and Amazon Voucher prizes. The quiz was put together and presented by Sarah McKie, who is the Head of Biology at St Peter’s School, and consisted of Biology, Chemistry and Physics rounds alongside an Observation Challenge and a Hitting the Headlines round amongst others. At the end of the quiz the teams waited with bated breath for the results to be announced. It turned out that three teams were tied for second place, so a tie breaker was needed to separate them.
