Wow! Wow! Wow! Over the last few weeks, our staff and children who are making the most of this strange time, have been busy creating artistic masterpieces that show the journey Jesus made during Holy Week. One of them was selected by the head of the Lancaster Diocese Education Service to display on their Twitter page!! Go St Joe’s!!!!
A beautiful message from our children @ St. Joseph’s Lancaster about our hope in the Lord ‘We know that all things work together for good’ Romans 8:28 pic.twitter.com/uACw70JgcM

Team D went into the woods and planted trees. We are invested in our future and can’t wait to see them GROW.
It is now some four weeks into these strange times, something I have never experienced in the forty years I have been in education. No school, no going to work, little contact with the outside world other than by TV and social media. I hope all our families, staff and friends of the school are safe, are well and looking out for each other.
I am tremendously proud of the way in which the school has continued to open and look after our children whose parents and carers are key workers. I am also proud and thankful for the work of the staff as they have relentlessly battled to obtain the food vouchers for our needy families. This has taken so much time, with each one being done individually, and it must have been so frustrating when the website crashed time after time. But at least it has worked and our families have been able to access this help.
We will get through this, and lets hope St Josephs will re-open sooner rather than later.
As Miss Griffiths said yesterday, we all miss you.
We have had a fantastically busy week!
We have made dream catchers, scripture pictures, clay pots and a giant collage to celebrate Jesus’ Resurrection.
