At St Joseph’s each child is encouraged and supported to be a successful learner and grow in their faith. We believe each individual is a unique gift from God and that our purpose as a Christian community is to nurture and develop each child.
At St Joseph’s we provide a broad and balanced curriculum through which we seek to ensure high academic standards. We have achieved a Platinum standard award in physical education and take pride in our sporting success in the local area. The children do a daily mile every day to ensure they are fit and healthy and to encourage positive attitudes to fitness and well-being. We have a silver Linguamarque mark for our French teaching and in every class has a language ambassador...

This afternoon we said farewell to Madame Brewster who has decided to retire to spend lots of quality time with her new granddaughter, after 18 years service and twenty five years connection with the school. We will all miss her very much. We presented her with gifts and cards. https://t.co/8Buq61uAEx
This afternoon all the Key Stage 2 children journeyed through the Stations of the Cross, they were contemplative and prayerful. Afterwards they were all treated to a hot-cross bun. @RCEastAnglia https://t.co/9emYFqYZiP

After the liturgy we went back to school for an Easter breakfast which had been prepared by lots of volunteers. All the food was symbolic representing parts of the Easter story. Some of the children tried some food for the first time! @RCEastAnglia https://t.co/kcWX6vmdiw
Easter Liturgy this morning at our parish church Our Lady and St John Sudbury. It was a fantastic interactive service with readings, prayers and Easter songs. https://t.co/TlWjahJ288
Whole School Holy Mass after a three year break! Father Brett said Holy Mass, and being together as a whole community with the parishioners felt very special. He reminded the children that Easter is about the joy and hope of the resurrection.
The Mini Vinnie's group visited the local care home this morning to deliver the Easter plants they had potted and decorated with Easter messages. The residents and staff were so happy and appreciated of the gesture and effort.. #minivinnies @SVPEnglandandWales @AnchorLaterLife https://t.co/dFSELc5TYk
Thank you to Miss Beer from @tgschool for teaching our Yr 6 children how to dissect a heart. The children were amazed to see the size of the 4 chambers and the elasticity of the aorta. The children have really improved their knowledge of how the heart works. @Curriculum_USP https://t.co/Dy5KoIgf9r
Break the rules day for CAFOD! The children have loved having the opportunity to break the school's uniform code today for a worthy cause. Each rule broken cost 50p so we are hoping we have raised lots of money. @cafodeastanglia @CAFODSchools https://t.co/AqEq4PJ28A
The whole school was treated to a cello concert from the year 4 children and their teacher Ms Bostock. The children played a Caribbean Fiesta and the new chords they had learned. Everyone agreed the children had made lots of progress. https://t.co/oUqgKMkpqd https://t.co/IbG9CgCBiE
Our Mini Vinnie's group have been planting up the plants they bought with the money raised from their bake sale. These colourful pots with Easter sleeves will be delivered to our local care home. #minivinnies @SVPEnglandWales https://t.co/9bNgy4NK3g

So glad we moved our child the best thing we could have done, lovely service today both Heads speak from the heart.

I just wanted to say thank you for all you have done for our child, we were so worried about the transition because of his additional needs but everything has run so smoothly and he is very happy.
Parent
I am so impressed with the way the children are conducting themselves, they are so focussed and want to achieve. Their class teacher has given them so much self-belief.
Parent
We ask you to extend our thanks and congratulations to everyone from the school who was involved in the carol service at the Sudbury library. We have known about music at the school right the way through our almost 40 years in Sudbury, so in that sense Saturday’s event was no surprise. In this day and age, however, it is simply glorious to see children performing with their school like this.
