Keep up to date with all the latest news happening in school at the moment.
We know that the pandemic is continuing to have a huge impact on children's mental health.
This time last year, the NSPCC's Speak out Stay Safe Programme was being delivered in 90% of primary schools in the UK. With most children now learning at home, we want to make sure they don't miss out on the vital messages about seeking support if they are worried.
The duo Ant and Dec, along with David Walliams, hosted an online assembly on Tuesday 23rd February to give vital tips on speaking out and staying safe.
This assembly can now be accessed by clicking on the link below.
Well done to all of our children for their fabulous efforts with Remote Learning. Our school staff have been working hard to provide the best online learning opportunities for our children. Learning at home is not easy for anyone but well done to all of our boys and girls on their wonderful work!
Together St. Joseph's is showing that team work does make life a little bit easier at these strange time.
Have a look at some of our work!
Today we celebrated Safer Internet Day in school. This year the theme was 'Together for a Better Internet'. To mark the day our Digital Leaders had been meeting virtually to create a video presentation to share with the rest of the children.
Today our Key Stage 2 joined us in a virtual assembly. We had an opportunity to pray together and talk about the key messages of keeping safe online. Our Digital Leaders also shared their video presentation with all the children who attended.
Many thanks to our Digital Leaders for their excellent presentation which really reinforced the message that together we can make the internet a better and safer place for us all!
Digital Leaders for 2020-21 are:
Year 5: Eoin Connollly, Alexander McSorley, Jacob Pennie
Year 6: Cillian Baker, Darragh Birch, Beth McLaughlin, Emily Rice
Year 7: Cliodhna Kearney. Declan Lee, Ewan McBride, Evie McGuinness, Nathan Smyth
Please view our video presentation in the school videos section of our school website. thank you.
This year the theme of Catholic Schools Week was Catholic Schools: Communities of Faith and Resilience.
Whilst we could not celebrate in school, we marked the week in many different ways by encouraging the children to become involved at home. The children certainly lived up to the challenge and became fully engaged. Have a look at some of the wonderful work they completed.
St Joseph’s Awarded Official Forest School Status!
I am delighted to announce that we have been awarded official Forest School status for our work in promoting outdoor learning.
Forest School is a unique method of outdoor education that allows children to develop
confidence, independence, self-esteem and awareness and knowledge of the natural
environment. We look forward to building on the success of this scheme.
Well done to all involved!
