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.
What a fantastic Sports Day we had last week at St John's CE Primary School, Hindley Green. From exciting races and team challenges to cheering on friends, it was a brilliant day filled with determination, teamwork and plenty of smiles. We are so proud of all our pupils for showing resilience, encouragement and excellent sportsmanship throughout the day. A huge thank you to our staff, families and supporters who came along to make the day so special. Well done to everyone who took part.
With the warm weather set to continue, all pupils can wear their PE kit to school from Wednesday until further notice if they wish. Please ensure children come to school with a water bottle so they can stay hydrated throughout the day. Thank you for your continued support. #QUESTtrust #SupportingYoungPeoplefromEarlyYearstoEmployment

Today, Reception released our butterflies and watched them flutter off to begin the next stage of their life cycle. It has been wonderful to observe their journey from caterpillars to beautiful butterflies. The children were so excited to see them spread their wings and fly away! #ReceptionClass #ButterflyLifeCycle #LearningInNature #EarlyYears #GrowingAndChanging #Butterflies
Reception have been learning about how food is decorated in Japan and explored the art of Kazari-Zushi. We had our own little go at decorating rice and loved getting creative with our designs! #ReceptionClass #KazariZushi #JapaneseCulture #CreativeLearning #EarlyYears #LearningThroughPlay
In year 5, we took part in the parliamentary elections. We will find out on Monday who has been elected as the head.
Year 4 took part in the Japanese food festival. We tried lots of new foods and designed our own Japanese meals.
Year 3 have enjoyed making posters and writing in Japanese for their Japanese food festival and can't wait to try some food this afternoon!
Year 6 have enjoyed trying some Japanese inspired food for the CUSP food festival this afternoon!
It is the boys in the spotlight this week!! Congratulation to this week's STARS OF THE WEEK for their amazing attitudes to learning, keep up the good work.
In Year 1, we have been brave as our class have transformed into dinosaur hunters We have been inspired by Mary Annings, who we have been exploring in our history lesson, to write a set of instructions on how to become a dinosaur hunter. In this lesson, we learned how to write and sequence steps so our writing has a clear order. Well done Year 1, keep shining as always
Our toddler group had a lovely session this morning celebrating Father's Day! The children enjoyed finger painting , making handprints , and colouring . We also had lots of fun decorating cakes by rolling out fondant icing . The cakes were a special treat for the children to enjoy or take home as a gift for their loved ones. Next week, we'll be heading onto the field for Sports Day . The weather forecast is looking good, and we're excited for a fun-filled outdoor session! #ToddlerGroup #FathersDay #EarlyYears #LearningThroughPlay
Liverpool Catherdral Today we spent the day at Liverpool Cathedral for the leavers service. The children were amazing and we are so so proud of them. It was all a little too much for one individual by the end of the day. #QUESTtrust #earlyearstoemployment #liverpool #catherdral #leaversservice
