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.
In year 6 today, we were looking at homophones. The children tested each other and took part in spellings activities.

Year 1 have been working super hard this week in phonics and here is an example of our wonderful learning & practice of our phase 4 learning.
This morning, Year 3 joined a Waterstones Virtual School Visit with author Rachel Bright and illustrator Jim Field. We listened to their new story, learned how to draw "The Turtle who turned the tide" and heard about what it is like to be an author and illustrator. We linked this to our Personal Development skills and discussed which of our skills we would need if we wanted to be an author or an illustrator when we grow up!
