Team D – Planting for the future

Team D went into the woods and planted trees.  We are invested in our future and can’t wait to see them GROW.

It is now some four weeks into these strange times, something I have never experienced in the forty years I have been in education. No school, no going to work, little contact with the outside world other than by TV and social media. I hope all our families, staff and friends of the school are safe, are well and looking out for each other.

I am tremendously proud of the way in which the school has continued to open and look after our children whose parents and carers are key workers. I am also proud and thankful for the work of the staff as they have relentlessly battled to obtain the food vouchers for our needy families. This has taken so much time, with each one being done individually, and it must have been so frustrating when the website crashed time after time. But at least it has worked and our families have been able to access this help.

We will get through this, and lets hope St Josephs will re-open sooner rather than later.

As Miss Griffiths said yesterday, we all miss you.

Team D – Over and Out!

We have had a fantastically busy week!

We have made dream catchers, scripture pictures, clay pots and a giant collage to celebrate Jesus’ Resurrection.

When the children are away…!

…the staff will play!

Mrs Willetts has been spotted sliding down the bannister of the wooden staircase!  

 

Look who was caught playing on the climbing frame!

 

To top it off, Mrs Smith was racing around the playground on a scooter!!

 

We Miss You!

Hello everyone!

It’s Miss Griffiths here! I have been in school this week so have taken over Mr Belbin’s computer (shh don’t tell him!)

I was chatting to Mr Belbin today and he wanted to check in and say HELLO!!  

Mr Belbin and I wanted each and every one of you to know that we are missing you 🙁

It’s feels very strange in school seeing empty classrooms that should be full of happy children who are learning exciting things.  Mr Belbin is missing his walkabouts and chatting away to you all!  

Don’t forget that you can send your teacher messages on Class Dojo.  They are missing you too and would love to hear how you are getting on.

For now, I better go! Stay safe and happy:-) 

Miss Griffiths
