At St Joseph and St Bede’s, we are committed to enriching our curriculum in alignment with our mission statement.. Through a range of curriculum enrichment activities, we strive to deepen our children’s understanding and appreciation of their faith while fostering intellectual curiosity and creativity. Our approach integrates spiritual growth with academic excellence, ensuring a well-rounded education that prepares our students to embrace challenges with compassion and resilience. Through engaging activities and tailored programs, we empower our students to explore, learn, and flourish in a nurturing Catholic environment.
The best place to keep up to date with our curriculum enrichment activities is our school Twitter/X account, which you can see below.
Reception had a calm and peaceful start to Advent. 💜 Our classroom has ‘gone purple’ and we lit the first candle on our Advent wreath. 🕯 We spent time in prayer and quiet reflection as we begin this season of hope.
