Welcome
On behalf of the children, staff and governors, I would like to introduce you to Deepcar St John’s Church of England Junior School. There is a great deal of information on our website. I hope you enjoy finding out about our school.
The school’s vision statement is ‘To create a welcoming Christian community of mutual love and care, where all are valued for who they are, where everyone is inspired to reach their full potential’. We are a church school, a status that we take seriously, and which impacts positively on an ethos which ensures that each individual is treated as special and important. The children are very proud of their school and we are very proud of our children. They love learning; care for each other and are very respectable of each other and adults. They are our best ambassadors!
While it is my priority that the education your child receives here with us will enable them to achieve their academic potential and progress confidently into the next phrase of their education, it is also part of my vision that all our children are filled with positive experiences, that they are aware of endless possibilities that await them and that they are nurtured, in order to develop within them, a confidence to embrace whatever comes their way.
If you would like to know more about our school, you are very welcome to come and visit. The children of Deepcar St John’s very much enjoy talking about and sharing their achievements and our successes.
Yours sincerely
Miss Louise Jones
Executive Headteacher
Thank you to everyone who is continuing to support our Walk to School initiative so far this term. Now that the sunnier weather has arrived, there is no better way to start the day than walking, scooting, biking or hopping to school. Many of our children have commented on how incorporating exercise into their morning routine makes them feel happier and in turn, has a BIG impact on their ability to learn in the classroom. On Thursday 5th June, the whole school will take part in Environment Day. We would love to see as many children as possible coming to school in an environmentally friendly way. Let's take care of our planet together!
It’s set to be hot and sunny again this week! Please ensure children come to school with: Suntan cream (preferably applied before school) A hat A refillable water bottle Thank you.
For our year 6 Children from all the staff at Deepcar St John's. SATs don’t see your football skills, Your artwork bright with flair, They don’t hear songs you love to sing, Or see the ways you care. SATs don’t see your friendships, The kindness that you show, They don’t know all the reasons, Why we are proud to have watched you grow. SATs don’t catch your giggles, Or how you help a friend, They don’t see how you try your best, Or how your hard days end. SATs don’t know your journey, Or all the things you’ve done, They’re just a little snapshot, Not the battles you have won. So when you sit to take them, With your pencil in your hand, Remember you are more than this - Much more than tests have planned. With pride from all your teachers, At Deepcar St John’s each day, You shine with strength and courage, In every single way. Good luck next week year 6. We look forward to seeing you for your SATs breakfast on Monday.
