Chikondi teaches us about 'The Common Good' – Community and Participation

The Common Good means thinking of everyone and putting others before yourself.

We reflect on the impact we have on the world that we live in, we recognise the world and its resources are a gift from God and that we as Global Citizens have a duty to ensure everyone has access to these gifts. As a Rights Respecting School we regularly discuss the UN Rights of the Child with our pupils and ensure we are considering how we can raise awareness and support these rights throughout our wider community.
 

“You are not making a gift of your possessions to the poor person. You are handing over to them what is theirs."

St Ambrose

Luc teaches us about Human Dignity

At St. Joseph's, we believe that everyone is special and that we are all unique and wonderful in our own special way. We celebrate our differences, are proud of who we are and show respect for ourselves and each other.  Luc the Deer shows us that God is present in every single one of us and we are called to treat every person and creature on this earth with loving respect.

At St. Joseph's we celebrate everyone’s skills and talents and recognise that we are all individuals. 

Please listen to our children sing!
