• SMSJ Newsround LIVE!

  Fri 21 Oct 2022

  As a school we decided that it would be a wonderful idea to create a video newsletter at the end of each half term to share all of the fabulous activities and learning that have been taking place in school. The children were really excited to produce this for you so please sit back, relax and enjoy.

• Year 5 and Year 6 visit Blackburn Library

  Fri 07 Oct 2022

  Today our Year 5 and Year 6 pupils visited Blackburn library to meet author Christina Gabbitas. Christina is a children’s author, poet, storyteller, and voiceover artist who grew up in Blackburn. The children enjoyed watching Christina perform one of her poems and read an extract from her book. We hope that through her story she inspired some of our budding young authors to reach for the stars and who knows one day publish their own stories.
