St Peter's RC Primary School is a Catholic primary school in Aberdeen, Scotland that was established in 1833. Its Head Teacher is Mrs Jo Martin and the school educates around 250 pupils in ten classes. Half the pupils are taught English as a foreign language.〔 ==History== St Peter's RC Primary School was founded on 10 April 1833, on Aberdeen's Constitution Street, by Father Charles Gordon who was the parish priest of the local St Peter's Church. A statue in his honour is in the school's front garden. The statue was created in 1859 by the sculptor Alexander Brodie (1829-1867).〔 The school was linked to St Mary's Cathedral when it was opened in 1860. A few years after the First World War the school moved to a new building on Nelson Street, which was a suitable location due to the high number of Catholics living in the area at the time. The school moved to its present premises at Dunbar Street in 1983.〔 The council decided, in August 2001, that St Peter's pupils could obtain religious education at Linksfield Academy. The school has been part of the Eco-Schools project since September 2004.〔("Pupils to run circles round worn-out tyres" ), Europe Intelligence Wire, 8 December 2006〕 In 2006 a controversial proposal to move the school to the site of St Machar Primary school was rejected after a campaign that included public meetings and a Freedom of Information request to establish the reason for the move.〔("Reasons for relocation of school are rejected" ), Europe Intelligence Wire, 11 November 2005〕〔("Parents celebrate after plans to merge schools are set to be ditched" ), Europe Intelligence Wire, 22 December 2005〕〔("Future of city schools and nurseries in the melting pot" ), Europe Intelligence Wire, 13 January 2006〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「St Peter's Roman Catholic Primary School, Aberdeen」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
