St Joseph’s Spiritual Garden Update 

We’re delighted to share that Mr Exley has now completed levelling the garden space—a big step forward in creating our Spiritual Garden.

A huge thank you to RKM GRAM Hire and Haulage Ltd for generously loaning us the machinery to make this possible. Your support is greatly appreciated!

Next steps will be to create a pathway into the Garden … watch this space!

Safeguarding at St Joseph's

• If you have any concerns about a pupil at our school, please share this information with us straight away.
• Issues such as appearance, hygiene, behaviour, can be shared with teaching or support staff.
• Do not worry about reporting small matters – we would rather you tell us than miss a worrying situation.
• If you think that a child or an adult who cares for them has been or might be harmed, please talk to a member of our trained safeguarding team immediately (details below).
• You can ask any member of staff to find them and speak to you about a confidential and urgent matter.

 If you are unhappy with the way we have dealt with something, please tell us.If you wish to report it to us formally, please use our complaints procedure or write directly to the Head Teacher or Chair of Governors. A concern, allegation or disclosure of abuse involving someone working with children or adults in a paid or unpaid capacity must be reported directly to the Head Teacher, unless it involves them, and then it should be reported directly to the Chair of the Governing Body, Rev. Mr Simon Hegarty.

Weekly Whole School Attendance

Our Year 5 children were asked by Fr Mark to find out the meaning of St Joseph’s name.

We did some research afterwards and thought we’d share it with you all! 💛

The Meaning of St Joseph’s Name 

The name Joseph means “God will increase” or “God will add.”
It reminds us that God can bless and provide for people. St Joseph, as the caring father of Jesus, shows us what it means to protect, support, and care for others.
