• Sports Hall Athletics Team Crowned Area Champions

  Thu 30 Nov 2017 Mr Fisher
  Well, what can I say? Today a squad of 18 children (9 girls and 9 boys) travelled to Bridgwater College to participate in the Sports Hall Athletics Area Finals. Competing against 18 other schools from around the Sedgemoor area, the team of girls and boys from St Joseph's ran, jumped and threw their way to the top! With every single member of the team competing in 4 events (two track and two field) there were of course some extraordinary individual performances. But today was more about the team performance. Times and distances from all the events were accumulated to give an overall team score. With a remarkable tally of over 1,300 points, St Joseph's were crowned area champions and will hopefully look forward to a place in the County Finals. Well done everyone concerned - you were amazing!

• Nutty Noah Comes to St Joseph's

  Thu 16 Nov 2017 Mr Fisher
  Well, what can I say? Last Friday night saw St Joseph's school host an absolutely amazing performance delivered by Nationally recognised children's entertainer 'Nutty Noah'. Organised by the ever energetic 'Friends of St Joseph's' team, over 120 tickets were sold for this superb show! Children, parents and friends thoroughly enjoyed an evening of entertainment, fun and laughter. A huge thank you should once again go to the team that helped with the organisation of this event, with much of the money raised on this occasion going towards subsidising the school Cinema trips at Christmas. A special thank you to Mrs Green and the rest of the team - the children here at St Joseph's are very lucky to have such a dedicated team working tirelessly behind the scenes and raising money that benefits everyone.

  Thu 09 Nov 2017 Mr Fisher
  Today our school hosted a Year 3/4 football festival involving schools from St Joseph's, Churchfield, Berrow, St Andrew's, West Huntspill and East Huntspill. Rather than playing games for their school teams, the children were all mixed together and played a series of matches against one another. The attitude and effort on display was superb and all the children seemed to enjoy themselves.
