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.
Ks1 @StJosephStBede have been talking about change. It's an inevitable part of life and we discussed how school can help us learn how to manage change. Our next big change is just around the corner and we are nervous, excited and ready for it. #sjsbpshe
For #WorldMusicDay #sjsbclass7 have been exploring how ballads tell a story by analysing Listen by Beyoncé. Inspired by its emotion and narrative, they’ve written powerful ballads of their own — full of heart, voice, and imagination! 🎶🎵🎤@StJosephStBede #sjsbmusic @daly_mrs_
So many songwriters of the future! Well done Class 7. I cannot wait for us to set your lyrics to music next week @StJosephStBede #sjsbmusic @MissWheeler10
Class 6 celebrated #WorldMusicDay by exploring storytelling through ballads, which inspired us to write and perform our own class ballad! We then spent time listening to Jazz music, creating doodle art based on how the music made us feel #sjsbmusic @StJosephStBede 🎶
In science, we have been investigating whether our femur length affects how far we can jump. We found that the longer the femur, the further we can jump but that other factors also affect this such as how strong our leg muscles are and our jumping technique. 💪🦴#sjsbscience
Tonight in Beadies we had a pie face night ! The children enjoyed a messy game whilst trying their best to get the adults involved. However the adults were just happy watching the mess and laughter on their faces.LITERALLY! @StJosephStBede @STOC_CAT
Just a beautiful idea 🐝🐝🐝
This week, we are celebrating #WorldMusicDay across school. In Class 8, we started the week by writing and performing our own ballads based on the animation, Soar. We then listened to, explored and appreciated artists from the country music genre🎶🎤🎵 #sjsbmusic @StJosephStBede
