• Sponsoring Jolaurabli school children

  Mon 04 Jan 2016
  As part of the Chaplaincy team's development plan in the spring term, it was agreed with Mrs Mills to sponsor a child from the Jolaurabi School in Kenya. Many of you know that a child has to be sponsored £6 a month to be able to attend the school. I am delighted to be able to announce that we have raised enough money in our funds to sponsor two children and I will hopefully be able to tell you their names and maybe even show you a photograph of them later on this month. Keep a lookout in school and I will send in more details when I have them! In the meantime, don't forget to keep an eye on their website to keep up-to-date with what's going on there: http://www.educatethekids.com/

• Athletics Team are 5th Best in Somerset!

  Wed 16 Dec 2015
  An enormous well done to our Sports Hall Athletics team who finished in 5th place in the Winter School Games County Finals on Tuesday afternoon. This is tremendous achievement, especially for a school of our size! The 18 children from Years 5 and 6 (9 girls and 9 boys) were magnificent, competing with passion, determination and huge amount of ability against the best Primary, Junior and Middle schools in the County. Well done to all concerned and a huge thank you to all those parents who helped with transport to and from the event. 

  

• Boys Football Team Reach County Finals

  Wed 02 Dec 2015
  A huge well done to our boys football team who reached the County finals on Monday this week. The team were victorious against opposition from St Andrew's, St Mary's, Berrow, St Joseph's (Bridgwater) and Eastover. This is a huge achievement as nearly all of these schools (with the exception of St Joseph's in Bridgwater and Berrow) are over twice the size of our school. The boys will now represent the area at the prestigious County finals which are due to be played at the end of January. Well done boys, a superb result!!

  An enormous well done to our Sports Hall athletics team who reached the County Finals this afternoon. The team made up of 9 girls and 9 boys had to compete against strong competition from 13 other schools, many of which are twice the size of ours!

  A spirited display saw the girls football team bow out in the Area Finals this afternoon.

Well done girls, both the school and Mr Fisher are extremely proud of you.

• Huge Numbers at Latest Cross Country

  Fri 16 Oct 2015
  Wednesday saw a team of 40 children from St Joseph's compete in the latest inter school cross country. With the event being held at Burnham-on-Sea Rugby ground we were always going to have a home advantage and the children did not disappoint. There were fantastic performances from everyone  and we even managed two silver medals in a couple of the races (well done Lillie and Fletcher). A great all round team effort! Well done Team St Joseph's!!!!!
