Virtue, mission and verse of the week
Our current virtue: Love of learning!
Our Bible passage of the week: 2 Kings 23:2 - King Josiah reads the law of God to the people
Our mission this week: Read (or listen to) Bible stories we haven't heard before. Please try to find time to share a Bible story with your children this week. Even better, send us info/photos so we can share these on our social media and inspire other families to read more Bible stories together too!
Bookshare Breakfasts!
We are delighted to announce that we are shortly going to launch Bookshare Breakfasts on a Friday morning, before school!
This will be a lovely time, when you are invited to come in and share a book with your child, with members of our staff, whilst also enjoying a slice of toast and juice! Siblings welcome.
We can't wait to begin these, so please watch this space for further details... !
St Francis Class (Preschool / Reception)
St Francis have been very busy this week, looking at the traditional tale, The Litte Red Hen. We learned how to bake bread with Miss Gill, and looked carefully at the ears of wheat and talked about how it grows. In our story-writing we have been thinking of lots of adventures for the little red hen and having a go at using our new phonics sounds to write about them! We have also challenged ourselves in maths to match pairs, identify sets and find the odd-one-out in a mixed up set!
St Patrick Class (Year 3/4)
In RE, we have been learning about the Bible and how it is a book about God's relationship with his people. We thought about how it is a way that God speaks to us today. We made phones (that actually swipe!) and wrote a text conversation between us and God, with us choosing a Bible verse as God's reply.
St Therese Class (Year 5/6)
In St Therese Class, we are now on the next stage of writing our information text about wolves. We've worked very hard on this so far and are beginning to produce some super texts. To help us remember that grey wolves that live in woodlands can be called timber wolves, we danced to the song Timber!
Friends of St Joseph's
A big thank you to those of you that have registered with Asda Cashpot. In just over a week we have already raised nearly £75! Raising money whilst we shop is definitely a 'win win', and collectively will make a big difference.
Next week will be the first of our Treat Fridays. 'Pick and Mix Popcorn' and milkshakes will be on offer at the end of day on the playground, so bring those 50p's!
We are also excited to share with you the date for the next school disco.....Thursday 24th October. Look out for an e-mail coming out next week with more details.
We do hope to see as many of you as possible for the AGM on 30th September. This is a great way to meet other families and get involved in the wider school events.
