• Girls Narrowly Miss Out On Semi-Final Spot in ESFA Qualifier!

  Fri 16 Oct 2026 Mr Fisher

  Yesterday, our Girls' Football Team travelled all the way to Bridgwater & Taunton College to compete in the ESFA Area Qualifier. There were a total of 11 girls' teams in the competition, with the sides split into two pools. The St Joseph's girls were in a group of six and finished the competition with two wins, two draws, and just a single loss (1–0) against the team that went on to contest the final! Unfortunately, their points total meant that they narrowly missed out on a semi-final spot by just one point. These girls were, once again, a credit to the school. Their footballing talents were evident throughout the whole afternoon, but more importantly, their positive attitude, determination, and sportsmanship were amazing! Well done, girls - this was an incredible afternoon of football and you should all be very proud of yourselves.

  Fri 09 Oct 2026 Mr Fisher

  In what proved to be the most competitive ESFA qualifier in years, our boys' football team performed admirably throughout the afternoon. Even in the face of defeat, the boys showed fantastic resilience, battling hard right to the end of every game. They maintained their focus and a positive attitude throughout the competition. Although they lost a few games, they were rewarded with two brilliant draws against good opposition. Well done boys - this was an excellent afternoon of football and you should be very proud of your achievements.

  Wed 30 Sep 2026 Mr Fisher

  Today, I witnessed another fantastic afternoon of football, this time featuring our Girls' team. Travelling all the way to Bridgwater College Academy, the team competed in this year's area competition and they did not disappoint! The girls played with energy, passion, and determination, finishing the tournament in a magnificent 3rd place. They lost just one game, winning two and drawing one. WELL DONE, GIRLS - THIS IS A BRILLIANT START TO THE SEASON AHEAD!

  

• Year 5/6 Boys Finish 3rd In Futsal Area Competition

  Thu 24 Sep 2026 Mr Fisher

  A huge well done to our Year 5/6 Boys Futsal team, who travelled all the way to Haygrove School in Bridgwater yesterday to compete in the Sedgemoor Area Futsal competition.

  The boys played some brilliant football. In futsal, the ball is slightly heavier than a normal football, placing the emphasis on keeping the ball on the ground and focusing on precise passing. The boys did not disappoint! They moved the ball around beautifully and scored some fantastic, well-worked goals.

  Their attitude and effort throughout the competition were superb. After a couple of wins, a draw, and just two narrow losses, I am pleased to say that the boys finished the competition in third place.

  Well done, lads! This was a brilliant effort and a great start to your season.

  

• Girls Perform Brilliantly At County Cricket Finals

  Fri 10 Jul 2026 Mr Fisher

  Well this just about capped off another brilliant year of sport for St Joseph's with our girls cricket team flying the flag for not only the school but the Sedgemoor Area as well as they competed yesterday at Clevedon Cricket Club in the prestigious County Finals. Once again, this remarkable squad pitted themselves against the best cricketers in the County, securing an emphatic victory in the final game of the competition and leaving the event with a smile on their faces. As always, the effort and determination across all their games was just amazing to watch and even in the face of defeat, it didn't effect the girl's spirit; they battled on with real resilience and passion. As always, the School and Mr Fisher are incredibly proud of you all. WELL DONE!

  Fri 10 Jul 2026 Mr Fisher

  A huge well done to our Year 3/4 Athletics team who finished runners up in this year's Sedgemoor Area Sports held at The King Alfred School. The 20 strong team of girls and boys ran, jumped and threw their way to a silver medal in the competition, narrowly missing out on gold! This was an amazing team effort with all the qualities we expect to see from the children at such an event; passion, determination, resilience and of course great comradery and team spirit. Well done all of you! 

  

• St Joseph Cricketers Thrive in Area Tournament!

  Fri 22 May 2026 Mr Fisher

  A huge well done to the girls and boys cricket teams who represented the school today in the Area Cricket Finals held at Wembdon Cricket Club in Bridgwater. In total there were 20 schools participating in all three competitions which is a huge turn out from the surrounding area.

  The boys played some fantastic cricket throughout the afternoon and finished the day losing two games and winning two! Their attitude and effort levels over the whole event were just brilliant, even in the face of defeat! Well done boys, you were a credit to the school!

  The girls continued their run of sporting success this year and made it through to the finals, losing by just 3 runs to a strong Somerset Bridge team, a school nearly three times the size of ours! Once again, just like the boys, their attitude and effort levels throughout were outstanding and they played some amazing cricket as well. They will now represent the Sedgemoor Area in the County Finals being held in July.

  All in all, this was a great end to the first half of the Summer Term! WELL DONE ALL OF YOU!

• St Joseph's Trio Medal in County Cross Country!

  Thu 30 Apr 2026 Mr Fisher

  Yesterday I had the pleasure of travelling all the way to Yeovil after school to watch three of of children compete for the Sedgemoor Area in this year's County Cross Country. Racing against the fastest children across the County of Somerset, this trio of superstars did not disappoint! All three of them ran brilliantly in the sperate Year 3/4 Boys and Girls races with the Sedgemoor Girls teams finishing in second place and the Boys team going one better and winning the team prize. A special mention must go to one of our girls who finished with an individual silver medal - a remarkable achievement and even more impressive as she has another year in that age group! Great work from all three of you!!
