Congratulations to Miss Williams and her fiancé who welcomed their beautiful boy, Daniel, to the world on Tuesday 3rd March. The new family is doing well!
Children from Nursery to Year 6 had a fantastic time celebrating World Book Day today, Thursday 5th March. The day began with a Book Breakfast, followed by an exciting worship where we enjoyed seeing everyone's amazing costumes – both children and adults dressed as their favourite book characters! Throughout the day, our love of reading was clear to see. Some classes dropped everything to read at a moments notice and some year groups joined together to share stories. Reading plays such an important role in children's learning development and wellbeing, and it was wonderful to see that love of books shining throughout our school today. #growingandlearningtogether #stjohnswey #worldbookday2026
It was lovely to see so many of you join us for our Family Breakfast this morning. The children looked amazing! Thank you for supporting us and thank you to Miss Frampton and the school staff for making it happen. We will add an update later in the day with further pictures of St John's World Book Day. #growingandlearningtogether #stjohnswey #worldbookday2026
