Our Motto
St Joseph's Catholic Primary School is
A calm, holy place where we pray, think and celebrate God's world.
Where we can share a true love of learning through our creative and
inclusive curriculum.
Where we celebrate and nurture the gifts and talents of every person as
uniquely created in the image of God.
A supportive community where home, school and church work together.
Learning and laughing together in the light of God's love.
