Today is #nationalpoetryday2025 and Class 6 had lots of fun writing their own kennings based on this years ‘play’ theme! They are excited to share their poems with our local neighbours #poetrypost @StJosephStBede #sjsbenglish
KS1 have celebrated #NationalPoetryDay by writing our own poems all about how we can play during the autumn season. We prepared some of our poems to be posted to our local neighbours. @StJosephStBede @STOC_CAT #sjsbEnglish #PoetryPost
I happened to hear some of these being read aloud this afternoon! Well done Class 7! Your kennings sounded brilliant!

Our brilliant young poets in #sjsbclass7 have been busy crafting kennings for #nationalpoetryday2025! Each poem is a riddle in disguise…can you guess what they are writing about? 🎶🎾🏸🥅@StJosephStBede #SJSBenglish
This #NationalPoetryDay, with the theme of Play, our Class 10 poets gave voices to footballs, dogs, board games and more! Inspired by the brilliant book 'Poems Aloud', they mastered personification-creating playful rhymes both bold and unique!✨#SJSBenglish #WritingForPleasure
✨ #DreamWeek in Class 10…We created our own mission statement mandalas & wrote letters of encouragement to inspire Small (and all dreamers!) to shoot for the moon 🚀💫 #SJSBWriting #SJSBre
What a special evening celebrating our amazing young people. Congratulations Class of 2025 @StJosephStBede #dreambelieveachieve
Our children had decided that their greatest aspiration was for happiness. It was wonderful to hear how each of our visitors have managed to find their bliss in such varied roles. Thank you to each of you for sharing your journey. #sjsbpshe @StJosephStBede
What a week it has been for this group of future stars. ‘Matilda the Musical’ was truly special and we are so proud of each and every one of you @StJosephStBede @STOC_CAT #sjsbmusic #sjsbenglish @MrsGunnY6 @_MissBurke_
We have had the most incredible time performing our Year 6 production, Matilda. Bravery, talent and a sprinkle of magic - these children proved that they can do extraordinary things. @StJosephStBede #sjsbmusic
