Mrs. Ciraolo’s 4th Grade Class News
Mrs. Ciraolo’s 4th grade class has been busy these first couple of weeks of the 2024-2025 school year! They have been establishing classroom routines, celebrating mass together and creating priceless memories.
In October, the Diocese of Buffalo will be in its 177th year. As their first project, the class created Bishop, “Flat” Timon and he is ready to embrace another year of journeys into some prayer spaces in our homes and holy places around our community. The class can’t wait to add to the scrapbook that Mrs. Ciraolo has created. Bishop Timon would be so proud of how much our diocese has grown.
66th Annual Peach Festival Parade
The rain couldn’t stop St Peter RC School from shining in the 66th annual Niagara County Peach Festival Parade. SPS students, families, and staff members gathered together on Saturday, September 7th to represent our school. Our “Panther Pride” was on full display with everyone decked out in red and black to spread the SPS spirit. The SPS cheerleaders and students brought the pep, cheering from a beautifully decorated parade float down Center St., smiling, waving, and tossing candy the whole route. The smiling faces of our SPS families were also spotted in the crowd supporting our school and the Peach Festival. In addition, several of the SPS Kindergarten students sparkled in this year’s Peach Blossom Pageant. A special thank you to our H.S.A., Aerial Roofing and Exterior, and the Martin Family for providing this year’s float. A great time was had by all! Way to represent St Peter RC School!
Blessing of the Backpacks & Grilling with Grandpas
An annual tradition in our St Peter RC School community is the gathering of students and families on the Rectory lawn the Thursday evening before school starts to receive a Blessing from our Pastor to begin our year. The excitement of seeing old friends and catching up, along with the joy of meeting new friends and welcoming them to this wonderful community can be seen and felt by all who attend. Father Luke did an exceptional job making sure the Blessings were felt by all in attendance! Once school supplies were then dropped off in classrooms, all gathered in the parking lot for the return of Grilling with Grandpas! This tradition has been on hold for several years now, but we are so fortunate to have a group of Grandpas who are so very active in our school community and were more than happy to help bring this tradition back to our school! Thank you to everyone who was able to attend and we look forward to all of the Blessings that the Lord may Grace our school community with this year!
