"The Catholic School should be a living embodiment of
an ideal and a faith; it should demonstrate a way of life; it should be a witness to
society. It should practise what it preaches about the dignity and worth of the
individual". - Cardinal Basil Hume
 A warm welcome to St.
Joseph’s.
St. Joseph’s is a friendly, one form entry primary school set in extensive grounds in
the parish of St Mary of the Crays.
We believe that our school will make a valuable contribution to your child’s
development. At St. Joseph’s, with your support, we aim to provide a secure, happy
environment where children grow and develop into responsible young people.
Importance is placed on a disciplined learning environment. This will be achieved through
a system of rewards, positive praise and sanctions, which are firm but fair.
Academic excellence for all children is one of our many goals and this is embodied in our
mission statement, which reflects the aims of the whole school community.
You are invited as parents to work together as an important part of the home, school
parish partnership. We value the contribution to school life that you make and encourage
you all to participate in its many activities.
