What our Community Says
''I look forward to transitions and meeting the new teachers and teaching assistants that will help me at St Johns. Transition times give me the chance to get to know the new staff members so I feel comfortable to learn and thrive.''
''The learning at St. Johns is fun, we have lots of opportunities to explore through different topics and even have trips/workshops that go alongside our learning.''
''I like school because you can learn new things and make new friends. My favourite subject is maths and art.''
"My favourite thing about school is that when I am down, staff at school are always there to cheer me up with a joke or words of encouragement."
I honestly cannot recommend the Toddler Group enough. My children absolutely love it. There is always something different to do/ explore and they love the singing/ dancing at the end and helping to tidy up.
Congratulations to this week's STARS OF THE WEEK. Keep up the amazing work! QUEST Trust
In Year 5 this week we have started our new science topic about space. We investigated the different planets that make up the solar system. We then created a double page spread detailing facts about each planet using the information we learned during our science lesson. Well done Year 5. Keep it up
Our skill this week was planning. Year 3 talked about how important it is to plan, especially for teachers! We are experts at planning as we always plan our wonderful writing and even sometimes plan science experiments! #FromEarlyYearsToEmployment #TeamHGSJ #SkillsBuilder #Planning
This week Year 1 and Year 2 joined forces for Art. We investigated different ways we could use chalk and oil pastels to create pieces of art. From this, we created some beautiful sunrise and sunset pictures by blending chalk together for effect. Here are some highlights of our learning this week.
Here are some highlights of the Year 1 showcase at HGSJ. The Year 1 children loved showing off all of their learning so far this academic year. Keep shining Year 1, it was an incredible performance
Reception fun at lunchtime today, creating fairy gardens with Mrs Beardsworth, we couldn't wait to show Miss Walls.
In Reception this week, we've been busy developing our *Skills Builder* focus: **Planning** The children have been learning how to think ahead, make simple plans, and organise their ideas before starting activities. From building models to creating stories and setting up role-play areas, they've shown fantastic independence and creativity! We've been encouraging the children to: Talk about what they want to do first, next, and last Gather the resources they need before starting Stick with their plan and adapt if things change It's been wonderful to see their confidence grow as they take ownership of their learning and begin to understand the importance of planning in everyday tasks. Well done, Reception – we're so proud of you! #SkillsBuilder #PlanningSkills #ReceptionClass #EarlyYears #LearningThroughPlay #fromearlyyearstoemployment
Today our Reception children held a beautiful Mother's Day assembly, we wanted to share with you the reasons we love our mummy...
Construction Fun at Toddler Group! This week our theme was construction, and the children absolutely loved becoming little builders! Next week will be our last session before half term and we'll be celebrating with a lovely Easter theme We may even have a very special visitor hopping by... #ToddlerGroup #EarlyYears #LearningThroughPlay #ConstructionPlay #LittleBuilders #EasterFun
Reception's Mother's Day Worship The children in Reception enjoyed celebrating their Mother's in a variety of special ways. They were delighted to showcase their love and appreciation, sharing thoughtful moments that made the occasion truly meaningful. #mothersday #FromEarlyYearsToEmployment #painting
Year 3 got creative and built some 3D art! We used clay, buttons and even sticks and leaves we found outside. Here are some of our creations. #FromEarlyYearsToEmployment #TeamHGSJ #Creativity #3DArt
Yesterday, Year 5 and Year 6 spent some PE time practicing their multi skills. They had access to lots of equipment and enjoyed making their own circuits, perfecting their throwing and catching skills and hand-eye coordination. The weather made it all the more enjoyable! #fromearlyyearstoemployment #TeamHGSJ
Some Year 6 girls had a lovely afternoon learning new football skills and taking part in some friendly matches. A big thank you to School Games and Wigan Athletic for organising such a great experience! #fromearlyyearstoemployment #girlsfootball #wiganathletic #SchoolGames
What a start to year 4's assessment week. We have so far done our maths arithmetic test and started test 1. The children have blown me away with their results. Their hard-work is definitely paying off. Well done. We are very proud.
**National Science Week in Reception!** This week Reception have been busy exploring, investigating and thinking like scientists as part of **National Science Week**! First, we took on a tricky challenge – could we remove an egg from a container of water **without spilling the water**? The children made predictions, shared ideas and were amazed as they watched what happened during our experiment! We also became engineers and builders by creating **three different houses** using a variety of materials. We tested them to see which one was the **strongest and most stable**, just like in the story of the Three Little Pigs. The children discussed which materials worked best and why. To finish our week, we learned about the famous scientist and naturalist **Sir David Attenborough** and talked about how he helps people learn about animals and the natural world. The children loved discovering how scientists explore and protect our planet. Reception showed fantastic curiosity, teamwork and problem-solving skills all week and even though our skills builder focus was adapting we still looked at other skills builder targets. Well done, everyone! #fromearlyyearstoemployment #nationalscienceweek #skillsbuilder
