• Tag Rugby Team Pass Their Way To Success

  Thu 17 Nov 2016

  Before the October Half Term break, the Tag Rugby Team competed in a friendly festival held at North Petherton Rugby club. The team tested their skills against a number of schools from the Bridgwater area and although the competition was not scored we were extremely competitive! The children were all confident running with the ball and some of the passing and composure was fantastic as countless tries were scored. This was a great effort from a group of children who have only just started playing the game!

• Boys Football Team Progress To Area Finals

  Tue 01 Nov 2016
  A huge well done to the boys football team who reached the ESFA Area Finals just before the half term break. The team remained unbeaten in the preliminary round winning one and drawing the other three games they played. They will now look to test themselves against the best in the area as they search for a place in the County Final competition! This is a fantastic achievement and is even more impressive as many of the team are playing a year or more under age! Great work boys and I look forward to seeing you compete in the next stage of the competition.

• Cross Country Superstars!!!!

  Fri 30 Sep 2016
  A huge well done to the 28 children who represented St Joseph's in the first area cross country of the season held at North Petherton Rugby club. Competing against schools from all over the area, the children were magnificent, racing with passion, determination and most importantly finishing with a smile on their face! There are too many children to mention all of them individually but a special mention should go to Evelyn and Dorothy who were the only girls to represent their classes, Harriet for a fantastic 4th place (she led for most of the race), Rudi, Tommy and Oakley for some great pacing throughout the duration of the race, Kobe for a 4th place finish in his first ever race for the school, Millie who finished faster than she started, Fletcher for a fantastic silver medal in the Year 4 boys race and finally Jack who wins the prize for the best running t-shirt!! Well done to everyone who raced....you were all brilliant!!!!!  

• Cross Country stars are at it again!

  Sat 24 Sep 2016
  A huge well done to the team of 26 cross country stars from St Joseph's who once again braved the elements and competed in the first area cross country of the year. The course was a particularly long one and you were all magnificent and a credit to the school. Well done and I look forwards to next months races which will be held at the BASC ground in mid October.

• Girls Football Team Triumph in Area Competition

  Thu 22 Sep 2016
  A huge well done to the Girls football team who competed on Monday night in the ESFA Area tournament. Playing fours games against a selection of schools from the surrounding area, the team were victorious against Kingsmoor (1-0) and North Petherton ( 3-0). They drew their game against Westover Green (2-2) and were narrow losers against a strong North Newton team (1-0). A second place finish earns them a place in the Area finals in November - Great work girls.

• Tennis Success at the County School Games Finals

  Fri 08 Jul 2016
  A huge well done to the four girls and four boys from Years 3 and 4 who represented both the school and area at the Somerset School Games Tennis Finals held at Millfield in Street on Thursday 7th July. In a high class competition the children competed against other regional finalists from all around the County; they performed with passion, determination and real skill! The standard of tennis being played was magnificent with all the children winning at least one of their four games over the course of the day. Our teams eventually finished in 6th and 10th place overall which is a marvellous achievement for all concerned. Well done everyone!

A huge well done to all the children who competed in this competition.... you were all brilliant!

• Super star girls perform in area cricket finals

  Thu 19 May 2016
  Today a team of 9 girls from Year 5 and 6 travelled to North Petherton Cricket Club to compete in an area Girls Cricket competition. The St Joseph's girls who have very little experience playing cricket at competition level were magnificent and improved with every game! The batting, fielding and bowling was brilliant throughout. A huge well done to all concerned with a special mention going to Eleni and Kitty for a couple of blinding catches, Megan for a double wicket haul in one over, Isabelle and Dorothy for some great bowling, Kizzie and Rhiannon for some big hits, Abbie for her speedy running between the stumps and finally Holly for her powerful fielding throws! Great effort girls!
