Book Fair
As is the tradition in St Joseph’s Primary, the Book Fair will be visiting the school between 19th and 22nd of October. Children will have an opportunity to visit with their class during the day and see what items there are on offer. Your child will be able to reserve a book and payment can then be sent to the school.
The Book Fair will be open for parents to visit during parent evening on Thursday the 21st of March.
Thank you for your continued support.

World Book Day
This year we will celebrate world book day with a range of activities in class. There is no need to dress up.
We will also have a focus on books during the week beginning 18th of March with a Scholastic Book Fair, which will be available to visit on Parents Evening ( 21st March).
Magical Moments!
Primary 6 were discovering “Immersive Reader” view in Word today. You can find Immersive Reader view in Word 2016 or in Glow with Word 365 Online.
We were so involved in exploring this tool that no one wanted to go to lunch; these photos are all after the bell. It was great that Immersive Reader view will store your background colour and font preferences, it will also read any Word document!
However, it was the ability to translate and read aloud the translation that really fascinated everyone.
So what does your Acrostic poem look like in Russian? What does it sound like? How about Polish? Would you say it that way? How good is the Polish speech?
Why don’t you check it out yourself – everyone has access through the “waffle” in Glow!
