A church school, we hold Christian values at the heart of everything we do. These are Friendship, trust, forgiveness, courage, creativity, peace, hope, and thankfulness. Teachers, governors, and parents all work together in partnership with one common aim: to do the best we can do for our children. We strive to create an environment where pupils are securely challenged, supported, and feel confident. Each child is valued equally and we believe that each child should be motivated to reach his or her potential, to take their place as a good citizen within the community.
The Flintshire Healthy Schools scheme was launched in October 2000 and is a member of the Welsh Network of Healthy Schools funded by Public Health Wales. The scheme aims to provide support for school improvement by establishing a healthy school climate in which the health and well-being of all members of the school community are valued and supported.
St. John's joined the scheme in 2006 and we have achieved Phases one and two. We are not currently working towards Phase three. To ensure that the message and initiatives from the first two phases are still prevalent within the school we will be holding a Healthy Eating Fortnight after May Half Term. During this project, all classes will be focusing on the importance of eating healthily, exercising, and looking after our bodies.
This term, Miss Thelwell will be hosting an after-school choir club taking place each Thursday from 3.15 - 4.15 pm (more information will follow shortly). Our "Kick It" club was so successful the last term, that the club will be returning to our school for 5 weeks from Tuesday 9th June (the application forms will be sent home the week before May half term). This will be open once again, for all pupils from year 1 to year 6.
