Our Iona House Captains have noticed a lot of school jumpers and ties being lost or left unclaimed. As part of St Joseph Primary Schools drive to reduce, reuse, recycle, our House Captains have asked to hold a ‘Name on the Label’ day in which we will write your child’s name on their school jumper and tie labels. Each class will receive a letter in the next few weeks with details of when our house captains will make a visit to your class. While letters for each class will be given out at different times, please return the slip promptly when your child receives their letter.

Well done to Zara, Sophie and Caleb this week for celebrating their own achievements in dancing, karate and football.

Primary 4

Primary 4 had lots of fun learning about capacity and volume. They took part in a stem challenge and went head to head in teams to see who could save the most water. Well done to team number 1. #STEM

 

 

To all parents and carers, Mrs Burns and the staff of St Joseph’s would like to thank you for your continued support over the last term.  We wish you all a Happy Easter.  Staff and pupils will return on Monday, 17th April 2023.

Congratulations to the children and their families in our nursery who won the logo design competition. It was difficult to choose only one winner from all the wonderful entries so the judges picked two winners and we combined the designs to create our new Logo. Each of our winning families received a family movie pass for Showcase Cinemas, kindly donated by Showcase Deluxe, Coatbridge.  Thank you to all those who entered.

See the winning entries below

Our Community donations have made their way to Turkey.  Our High school partner received an update from the Turkish Consulate in Edinburgh, informing them that all our donations had arrived safely via Turkish Airlines.  Donations have reached Kayseri and Hayat Kirikhan, where they will be further distributed to the worst affected areas.  Again, a huge thank you for your continued support and generosity.

P4 have enjoyed a wide variety of activities during science week.

We started with a visit from the Glasgow Science Centre where we attended the Fossil Fuels Science Show. We then got to participate in a ‘Powering the Future’ workshop.

In class, we learned about helicopters and experimented with paper versions.

Later in the week, we explored SCRATCH, an online coding website, and created our own animations.

We like to say a huge ‘Thank you’ to all our fantastic parents who came into class and shared information about their careers in the Science and Engineering Industries.

Mr Wards also brought in his 3D printer with some cool objects that had been 3D printed. Some even glowed in the dark!
