• Donating food to the Salvation Army

  Sun 30 Oct 2016
  Year 3/4 School Councillors - Asia and Calvin delivered the food to the Salvation Army in Preston. They were amazed how much food is given out to the community. The Salvation Army distribute 300 food parcels per month feeding 1700 families. The food is ordered by date and given out to families and people who are facing hardships. Thank you so much to our generous families at St Joseph's for their donation to the food bank. The school councillors were a credit to our school, asking insightful and thoughtful questions. They also showed a lots of strength- the bags were very heavy!!

• Reading Workshop

  Tue 11 Oct 2016

  I thank all the parents who attended the reading workshop in great numbers. It was a very well attended event and hopefully useful to you for supporting your child at home with reading. We will run another session for parents after half term on supporting your child to read and developing vocabulary.
