MEETING THE NEW TEACHERS!!!!!!!!!

Today the 18Th of July everyone except year six met their new teachers. Some were very happy with the decisions that were made and some were less sure, but I'm sure during the year they shall grow to love their teacher.
As we have all moved up one year group, we are expected to set good examples of those younger than us!! That means wearing our uniform correctly and excellent behaviour. Hope we have a good time next year/term especially year 5 who are going to be year 6 as it's their last year in St.Josephs Catholic Junior School...

End of year

It is coming to the end of the year and its that time when we become a higher year in our school career !! Most of the children in year six are very excited to be moving on to high schoool!

New time when school ends.

Parents have always had to wait quite a while for their Junior children when they have already collected their Infant children. So, when all the junior children come back from the summer holidays, school will now end at 3:25. It usually ends at 3:35! A letter was sent out by Mrs.Lee to see what the parents think. So now the school will end at 3:25.! :)

Going to the airport

A couple of months ago, the Luton airport set a competition to design a picture to go into their multi-faith room. In 5LB, a girl called Laelite was one of the many children across the town to win. At the airport, people amalgamated the pictures together to make one final design. Children in 5LB were extremely excited as they were going to the airport, as a prize. Laelite and her class were invited to eat their lunch in the multi-faith room. At the airport, children in 5LB enjoyed there day out. Watching passengers leave in planes, Miss Binnington and her class longed to go on holiday!

The Attendance Trip

The kids in our school, who have had perfect attendance all year, are going on a special day out. It was all arranged by the family workers. Thank you to all the people like Mrs.Stevenson and Mrs.Naughton for organising this and for keeping tabs on our attendance during the year! This is a lovely trip that the children will remember for a long time.
