Today was a very special day for the children in year 3, many of whom participated in their first Sacrament of Reconciliation. We walked to St John the Evangelist Church for morning Mass, followed by Reconciliation. When we returned to school, we wrote diary entries about our morning, and it was clear the children had enjoyed and reflected deeply on this important event. Well done!
We are dedicated to promoting British Values: Individual Liberty, The Rule of Law, Democracy, and Mutual Respect.
New signs have been placed on our school fence to spark discussions with children about British Values and how they are reflected in our everyday lives.

The children are absolutely loving the new books in our library and the cosy reading nook.
The money raised from our recent school disco has helped expand our ever-popular library.
Thank you to the PTFA members who helped on the evening. the children had a great time!
A huge thank you to Jo Wicksteed, our local Usborne Independent Partner, and David Wilson Homes for their generous donation of a bundle of Mental Health books.
These have been delivered to our library and will be greatly appreciated by the children who read them. ⭐
St John’s is excited to be taking part in The Big Lent Walk this year, raising vital funds for CAFOD! Children from Nursery to Year 6 are all involved, and we’d be so grateful for your sponsorship!
Your generous donations will help make a real difference. Every £1 raised will contribute to the fight against global poverty, supporting communities in countries like Afghanistan, Colombia, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, and South Sudan. 💗
Throughout our journey, we’ll be sharing photos of our progress, and our goal is to raise £500 by walking 200km this Lent. You can donate through our fundraising page: schools.walk.cafod.org.uk/fundraising/st-johns-rc-primary-school-fundraising-page.
We’re so excited to take on this challenge and make a real impact—and we’re incredibly grateful for your support!
Thank you!
What an exciting week it's been in Nursery and EYFS as we watch our eggs hatch into adorable little chicks! We now have 9 happy, healthy fluff balls to observe throughout the week. The children are thoroughly enjoying learning about the lifecycle of a chicken. We’re also fortunate to have frogspawn, which we’re closely watching as it develops!
