Huge well done to the Cricket team who represented SMSJ perfectly at Darwen CC. They had a brilliant time, scored loads of run and got loads of wickets.
We are very proud of you 🌟🌟
We had the best day in Bolton last week taking part in the Regional North West finals for Kurling.
We narrowly missed on the finals by goal difference but still had a great time and performed brilliantly. We even treated them to a McFlurry to celebrate getting further than any sports team ever at SMSJ⭐️
Well done everyone 🥌
WE ARE VERY PROUD OF YOU 🌟🌟
Our Year 3&4 pupils had an amazing time up at OLSJ watching high jump and taking part in UV dodgeball and Just Dance. Thank you to Miss Rigby as always 🙏🏼
