Welcome

Welcome to St. Joseph and St. James's P.S website. We hope you enjoy finding out information about our wonderful school. You can also find out more about our school from our app (primary365) and our school Facebook page. Please take time to explore and get a little preview of some of the wonderful work that takes place in our school community, where we all strive together as one great team 'Learning Together For Life's Journey'.

It is our greatest privilege to witness at first hand the progress of all pupils entrusted to our care, a job we take very seriously. We take great pride in our role of nurturing and caring for each individual child, as they progress through this wonderful journey of life, realising their full potential both spiritually and academically.

We hope you enjoy your time navigating our website seeing into our school, as you explore the work of pupils and staff and how it is so important to always celebrate our pupils' achievements.

Yours in partnership

C. Wadsworth

Principal
