P1 enjoyed a visit from their P7 buddies this afternoon, who came down to read a story to them. The P7 children engaged beautifully with P1, reading enthusiastically with fantastic expression and fluency. The P7 children chose great quality picture books which had their buddies smiling, talking about the pictures and laughing at the funny plots. Thank you again P7!

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.
