Cricket Teams Thrive In Area Tournament.
Fri 24 May 2024The cricket on display this afternoon from both the girls and boys was just amazing! Travelling all the way to Wembdon Cricket Club in Bridgwater, our two teams pitted themselves against the best schools in the area. There were a total of 25 schools represented from across Sedgemoor (15 boys teams and 10 girls teams).
Firstly, the girls competed and continued to grow in confidence with every game. They got better and better securing a fantastic win at the end of the competition.
As for the boys, they completed the competition with just the one loss and finished outright winners! They will now represent the school (and Area) in the County Finals later in the year.
Well done to all of you!

3rd Place Finish For Tag Rugby Team In Area Tournament!
Tue 12 Mar 2024Yesterday evening a team of 5 girls and 4 boys from St Joseph's travelled all the way to Brymore Academy in Cannington to compete in this years Sedgemoor Area Tag Rugby Tournament. With very little experience of playing this game other than a 45 minute crash course delivered by Mr Fisher the week before, the team performed amazingly well! Their performances got better and better with every game and by the end of the competition we were holding our own with the very best schools at the event. With 12 teams taking part, a third place finish is just remarkable and credit has to go to every one of the children who took part in the competition. Your ability to adapt to playing a new sport was just fantastic to watch and I'm sure that if we attend future events, you will continue to impress. WELL DONE EVERYONE!!

Year 2 Gymnasts Finish Runners Up In Area Competition!
Wed 07 Feb 2024A brilliant performance from our Year 2 Gymnasts this morning saw them finish the Key Steps Area Competition with a team silver medal! Performing a routine that has been practiced in Curriculum PE as well as in our after school club, the children were faultless under pressure as they performed in front of a judge and were scored accordingly. There were six schools competing (60 children in total) and the St Joseph's squad finished a remarkable second place! A special mention has to go to Alice, who also picked up a bronze medal as the third highest individual score of the day! GO TEAM ST JOSEPH'S!!!!
