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.

I would like to introduce our new ECO group. I look forward to working with you all and hearing all the amazing ideas.
In history this week, year 4 discussed why the Viking's invaded and settled in Britain. We then acted out the invasion of Lindisfarne.
We loved exploring 'I Am Not a Label in Year 5! Our children engaged thoughtfully with discussions about differences in society, celebrating individuality, and understanding that everyone can achieve their dreams no matter the challenges they may face. Such mature reflections and inspiring conversations from our fantastic learners! #HGSJ #Reading #Year5 #QuestTrust
One of our amazing reception children have been showing the value of love this week by using the EYFS enhancements to create a necklace for his mum to make her smile. #ChristianValues #Stjohns #withGodallthingsarepossible.
This week in Reception, we have been developing our *Skills Builder* skill of **Creativity** through observational drawing and investigating plants The children carefully observed plants and flowers, noticing changes in colour, texture, and shape as they aged. They used their creativity and attention to detail to create beautiful observational drawings, thinking like real artists and scientists! We loved hearing the children's ideas and questions as they explored the natural world around them. Well done, Reception, for your fantastic curiosity and creativity! #SkillsBuilder #Creativity #ReceptionClass #ObservationalDrawing #EarlyYearsLearning
In this week's skills builder, Year 1 and 2 have understanding different cues to know how someone is feeling such as body language, facial expressions, words used and tone of voice.
