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...

A few ideas which might be of interest over the summer or the months ahead. Singing in the rain shouldn't be too tricky at the minute.☔ We'd also love to see a photo if you manage to build a rock cairn. Make the most of being outdoors https://t.co/6Y0nqE0WGA
Happy Holidays to our fab #BikeTrain crew and passengers. Thanks to the High Sheriff of Suffolk @MarkPNewAnglia, who joined us on Fri for the last one of term.

Laughter and learning during transition afternoon ! The children were speculating who their new teacher and teaching assistant would be and after lunch all was revealed.This afternoon there were craft activities across the school. The new year 1s made delicious fruit kebabs. https://t.co/j0vhFeCvhP
Our wonderful Mini Vinnie’s president is moving on. She has been a kind and compassionate member of our group all year, helping to raise funds, collect food, make gifts and cards, visit the local care home. She was always ready to help others. @minivinnies https://t.co/JURGCu4O9O
Visit to the Fire Station. The children watched a safety video, tried on uniform, used the hoses and had a tour of a fire engine. When asked what was the best bit about the trip the children said 'EVERYTHING!' Thank you to retained firefighters Michael and Gareth. @sudburyfire https://t.co/C0nvfnvUX3
An emotional leaver’s Holy Mass this morning. The children were so prayerful and reverent throughout Mass. Father Brett did a super homily reminding the children how loved by God they are and to share love and kindness to others throughout their lives. https://t.co/pB6IV8tBVv
The Leaver’s Assembly took us all on an emotional rollercoaster through their time at St Joes. Then a pizza party, sponsored by Domino’s . To finish off the day a disco! An amazing day for very special children, who will be starting a new chapter in their lives very soon! https://t.co/C5gwPqjUOM
Another full house this time for the EYFS and Key Stage 1 sports day. Lots of excitement and cheering! The Year 6 children are helping with setting up and stickering. https://t.co/hy8WciurqF

During assembly this morning we celebrated with the First Holy Communion children. They came dressed in their special clothes and told the children how it felt be able to have the Holy Eucharist, and celebrate feeling closer to God with their families. https://t.co/cDrboLR2s0
St. Joseph’s children had their First Holy Communion this afternoon at Our Lady and St. John the Evangelist, our Parish church. The children looked so smart and read their prayers so clearly. They did our school proud. May they continue to feel God’s blessings. @RCEastAnglia https://t.co/tb5sTulx8y

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.
