"Teach a child in the way it should go, and when he is old he will not turn from it."

Proverbs 22.6

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

YEAR 5 – MOOR KNOWLEDGE SCHOOL EVENT

Today our Year 5 pupils had a fantastic day taking part in the Moor Knowledge School Event at Midhope Moor.

The children enjoyed a brilliant outdoor learning experience, finding out more about the Peak District moorlands and the important role they play for wildlife, communities and the environment.

Throughout the day, the children took part in a range of hands-on activities and met people who work to care for and protect these amazing landscapes. They explored topics including:

• Wildlife and habitat management
• Farming and sheepdogs
• Peat bog restoration
• Insects and beekeeping
• Countryside safety
• Wellbeing and resilience

It was a wonderful opportunity for children to learn outside the classroom, ask questions, work together and develop a deeper understanding of the world around them.

A huge well done to Year 5 for their fantastic behaviour throughout the day.
