St Joseph's PS Whitburn

Thank you!

I would like to thank all of the children, staff and parents of St Joseph’s for all of the kind messages of support and encouragement as I leave to take up my new position. The kindness shown has been overwhelming.

I would like to thank the children of P1 and their parents for creating such a lovely memory book for me. I will treasure it and look back on it with lots of fond memories. Also a huge thank you for all of the generous gifts and cards. Your children are a true inspiration and I am very honoured to have been their teacher. They are little super stars!!!

St Joseph’s is a special school full of wonderful children and I am very proud to have been part of it.

I hope everyone has a lovely Easter with their families,

Joanne Kerr

Easter STEM

Primary 5 have been so excited about Easter and today were set a STEM challenge to build a basket for the Easter Bunny to carry eggs.

The only resources they could use were:

card
scissors
ruler
pencil
glue stick

Some of their creations are fab!

We will assess them after the holidays and see how much they can hold.

Primary 4/5

Primary 4/5 used lines to create a hairy effect on our rabbits. They turned out really well.

Mrs Cree and Primary 4/5 would like to wish everyone a happy Easter.

Learning About Children’s Rights

We have been learning about our rights which come from the UN Convention of the Rights of the Child. To do this we have been using the Unicef Launchpad website to go on a learning journey. We study articles from the Convention through watching clips, reading information, having discussions and answering questions.

Cross Country

A few more photos from the P6 Cross Country event at Blaeberry Hill Park yesterday. Well done everyone!

School Open Evening

I would like to thank all parents, carers, grans, grandads, brothers and sisters on behalf of the children in P6M for your attendance on Monday night.

It was terrific to have so many people come to see, hear and take part in everything we have been learning this term.

The children particularly enjoyed teaching you all the different activities they have taken part in.

Thank you for your continued support.
