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.

Gulliver's World 2026 What a day! Today Y6's enjoyed a day out at Gulliver's world for their end of year trip. We didn't let the rain get us down #QUESTtrust #earlyyearstoemployment #trip
This week in Year 1, our reading ambassadors shared our new reading newsletter for this month.
The children loved taking part in Pyjamarama today! They created their own bedtime story covers, bookmarks and finger puppets as long with more activities. We also enjoyed sharing stories with Year 1, who came to read with us, and we shared our stories with them too. #Pyjamarama #LoveOfReading #StoryTime #EarlyYears #ReadingForPleasure #BookLovers
Year 3 have had a fabulous pyjamarama day. We heard from our reading ambassadors reading our newsletter. We also had a visit from year 2. We read to each other, then we read How To Wash A Wooly Mammoth and wrote our instructions. What a great day!
Year 3 have learned all about water safety and made posters advising others.
Today, Year 1 have had a fabulous morning for their Pjamarama Day. We have become excellent role models for our reception class and read them some of our favourite class stories. We even helped reception with their phonics to help them sound out words in the stories we were reading. Well done everyone! Keep it up!
Today in Reception, we learned about the story of the ten lepers whom Jesus healed. Although all ten were made well, only one returned to thank Jesus. This story helped us reflect on the importance of gratitude and faith. The thankful leper recognised Jesus' love and kindness and took the time to show his appreciation. Linked to our Skills Builder focus of speaking and listening, the children thought about the people they are thankful for. They shared who they would like to thank and explained their reasons, developing their confidence in expressing their thoughts and listening carefully to others.
This week Reception have been reading It's a No-Money Day and exploring the important themes of kindness, resilience, and community support. The children learned about food banks and the vital role they play in helping families when times are tough. We had some thoughtful discussions about how people can support one another and why it is important to show empathy and understanding.
What a fantastic morning at our Toddler Group World Cup & Mini Sports Day! We loved seeing all our little sports stars enjoying the games and football activities in their sporty outfits. A big thank you to everyone who came along, especially our wonderful Year 6 helpers. The ice pops were a big hit after all that hard work! Join us next week as we celebrate Father's Day! #ToddlerGroup #SportsDay #WorldCupFun #FathersDay #LittleSportsStars
In year 5 today, we revised 6 digit numbers. We tested our friends to see who our maths champion was. All the children were so good, we couldn't find an overall winner.
Guide Dogs Yesterday we was blessed with a visit from the guide dogs which we raised money for with the cake sales. We got in there quickly to ask for a picture with one the guide dogs we have raised money for thanks to your generosity. Thank you St John's. #earlyyearstoemployment #QUESTtrust #charity #guidedogs
We have been learning about mass and capacity in year 3. Today we looked at volume and capacity using jugs, beakers and water. #FromEarlyYearsToEmployment #TeamHGSJ #MassandCapacity #PracticalMaths
Year 3 used our speaking and listening skills to play some games and have some fun with rhymes! #FromEarlyYearsToEmployment #TeamHGSJ #SkillsBuilder
