Dear Parents/Guardians,
Welcome to St Joseph’s Lower Primary School
At St Joseph’s Lower Primary School, we all work as a team to create an exciting and challenging learning environment where everyone is committed to the highest possible achievement for all children. We ensure that each child has the opportunity to thrive by developing a wide range of skills within an exciting and nurturing environment.
We are delighted that your child will be joining our learning community and we believe in building a strong partnership with parents and carers and value your contribution to our school. We want you to be assured that your child's happiness, safety and development within a high quality teaching and learning environment is our primary concern.
Please be assured that you will be kept fully informed of your child's school-life and progress through regular feedback via our online platform Seesaw, newsletters, meetings, notes, emails and open days. Please feel free to call Mrs Santos our school secretary and make an appointment to meet with your child's class teacher or either of us whenever you need to.
We pride ourselves in offering something unique here at St Joseph’s through maintaining high academic standards whilst integrating 21st Century skills into the curriculum to ensure that our children are fully prepared for the next stage of their educational journey
