School Events

This week has been a very busy week! Our Year 11 students have been sitting their mock examinations and on Wednesday and Thursday we welcomed Year 6 students from our feeder primary schools...

Last Thursday we celebrated our third annual St Cecilia’s Day concert. The evening was an absolute delight as our Year 11 and Year 12 Performing Arts students were able to showcase their musical talents. 

A huge well done to our Year 10 and 11 Public Services students and their teachers for their outstanding physical efforts last Friday.

On Thursday Sixth Form students organised a special service and collection for aid in the drastically ravaged Philippeens.

Year 8 have had a once in a lifetime opportunity to study rock samples from the moon, supplied by NASA!

Miss S M Jenkins has been awarded an OBE in the 2013 New Year’s Honours’ List

Congratulations to Miss S M Jenkins, who in recognition of all her extraordinary services to education was appointed OBE, Order of the British Empire, in the 2013 New Year’s Honours’ List.

Miss Jenkins is a genuine role model for both staff and students in her tenacious approach to teaching and learning. She is more than a head teacher, she is an absolute inspiration, who works tirelessly to get the best from everybody.

Miss Jenkins is an exemplary leader who has always focused upon the attainment and well being of the students in St. Joseph’s RC High School. She takes interest in every student, knowing and caring for them as individuals. She emphasises the necessity of providing a nurturing and supportive learning environment that encourages the development of the academic, social and spiritual growth of all children.

Nobody who meets Miss Jenkins can miss her inner drive to do the very best for her students and the community she serves, and we are all very grateful to her. Thank you and congratulations Miss Jenkins.
