At St Joseph's, we are a GOLD Rights Respecting School

The Rights Respecting Schools Award puts children’s rights at the heart of schools in the UK. Unicef works with these schools to create safe and inspiring places to learn, where children are respected and encouraged to be responsible, active citizens.

You can read our GOLD Accreditation report here:

Find out more on the Unicef website here. Or you may enjoy singing along to our Rights Song.

Right of the Month

May's ‘Right of the Month’ and  ‘Wellness Warrior Challenge’ is Article 30: If you come from a minority group because of your race, religion or language, you have the right to enjoy your own culture, practise your own religion, and use your own language.

During this month, many celebrate Cultural Diversity Day on Saturday 21st May.

The World Day for Cultural Diversity for Dialogue and Development aims to encourage people to ‘live together better’.

Did you know, at St Joseph’s we speak Polish, Hungarian, Italian, Filipino, French, German, Mandarin and so many more!

To keep your mind forever learning, perhaps ask a friend this week to teach you some new words in their language? Or you could download a learning language app and spend a few minutes a day learning a new skill! We can’t wait to hear what you have been learning! 

Bonne chance, powodzenia and swerte naman!
