At St. John's Church of England Primary School, Hindley Green, our sense of belonging in school, Church and the community enables all to flourish. We believe that each child is unique. Through our nurturing approach and high expectations in learning, academic progress can be made, developing the whole child to be their very best. Our core values (love, responsibility, resilience, hope, motivation, creativity and community) enable us to believe that “With God, all things are possible.” Mark 10 :27
We show care, kindness and compassion so every child feels safe, valued and supported.
Children learn to take ownership of their actions, choices and learning with integrity.
Being respectful means valuing others, listening carefully, and treating everyone with fairness.
Being kind means helping others, using gentle words, and making sure everyone feels included and cared for.

''I look forward to transitions and meeting the new teachers and teaching assistants that will help me at St Johns. Transition times give me the chance to get to know the new staff members so I feel comfortable to learn and thrive.''
''The learning at St. Johns is fun, we have lots of opportunities to explore through different topics and even have trips/workshops that go alongside our learning.''
''I like school because you can learn new things and make new friends. My favourite subject is maths and art.''
"My favourite thing about school is that when I am down, staff at school are always there to cheer me up with a joke or words of encouragement."
I honestly cannot recommend the Toddler Group enough. My children absolutely love it. There is always something different to do/ explore and they love the singing/ dancing at the end and helping to tidy up.
**National Science Week in Reception!** This week Reception have been busy exploring, investigating and thinking like scientists as part of **National Science Week**! First, we took on a tricky challenge – could we remove an egg from a container of water **without spilling the water**? The children made predictions, shared ideas and were amazed as they watched what happened during our experiment! We also became engineers and builders by creating **three different houses** using a variety of materials. We tested them to see which one was the **strongest and most stable**, just like in the story of the Three Little Pigs. The children discussed which materials worked best and why. To finish our week, we learned about the famous scientist and naturalist **Sir David Attenborough** and talked about how he helps people learn about animals and the natural world. The children loved discovering how scientists explore and protect our planet. Reception showed fantastic curiosity, teamwork and problem-solving skills all week and even though our skills builder focus was adapting we still looked at other skills builder targets. Well done, everyone! #fromearlyyearstoemployment #nationalscienceweek #skillsbuilder
It's all about the boys today in Year 6! Congratulations to the following children who got 40/40 on their arithmetic assessment this morning! #fromearlyyearstoemployment #TeamHGSJ
Congratulations to this week's Stars of the Week, keep up the good work!
Year 3 are a class who love to read! Whenever there is a spare minute you can guarantee there will be a Dogman book out, somewhere in the room! Bramhall's book club has really helped to promote and foster this #FromEarlyYearsToEmployment #TeamHGSJ #BramhallsBookClub
Toddler Group The children had lots of fun at toddler group this morning. The theme was "Mother's Day." We cannot wait to see what else they get up to in the coming weeks.
As part of National Science Week, Year 6 have been discussing what makes for a healthy diet and how we can keep our bodies functioning at 100%! We looked at different scenarios and unpicked their diet, exercise and lifestyle and came up with suggestions for how these can be improved #fromearlyyearstoemployment #TeamHGSJ #NationalScienceWeek
Reception have been looking at the skill adapting this week for skills builder. We have done a great job of adapting our maths work to show different ways to represent numbers. We even corrected our numbers if they were the wrong way around. #FromEarlyYearsToEmployment #TeamHGSJ #SkillsBuilder #Adapting
For National Science Week, year 1 and 2 have experimented with our shadows. We used chalk to record where our shadows were at the start of the afternoon and compared where they were at the end of the afternoon. #nationalscienceweek #shadow #ks1 #questtrust
Year 2 have been creating props ready for their showcase assembly next week! Can you guess what we have been learning about? #questtrust #showcase #firefire
Year 3 have been looking at the skill adapting this week for skills builder. We have done a great job of adapting our writing work if we thought of an even better idea! #FromEarlyYearsToEmployment #TeamHGSJ #SkillsBuilder #Adapting
This week in Year 1, we have celebrated national science week! We have become super astronomers by investigating the different planets in our solar system. Some budding scientists in the future in Year 1 at HGSJ
In our class worship this week, Reception, Year 1 and Year 2 have discussed our feedback from the most recent YLT meeting. We are so excited to embrace our new change in uniform. #fromearlyyearstoemployment #QUESTtrust #HGSJ
Reception have been exploring the numbers 9/10 as part of our @whiterose learning. We've been looking at 1 more than a number and tested our knowledge by playing one more bingo. #learningisfun #fromearlyyearstoemployment #whiterosemaths #onemore
Reception have been learning about healthy choices and continuing their teeth brushing journey. They wanted to share their beautiful smiles with you .
Year 3 enjoyed our science experiment this afternoon. We were studying resistance using different materials and a toy car. Our hypothesis was correct, carpet was the most resistant Well done year 3! #FromEarlyYearsToEmployment #TeamHGSJ #NationalScienceWeek #Forces
