St Peter's Catholic Primary School

September 2018

We met 38 parents during our first visit to St Peter’s Catholic Primary in Doncaster and the reception we had was fantastic from both parents and staff alike. Many of the parents bought copies of our book Bodies, Babies and Bellybuttons as they were keen to ensure they were continuing the conversations started by our team during the Growing Up Safe sessions at home.
