Welcome

It is my great pleasure to welcome you to our new website, where we hope to share with you everything you need to know about our wonderful school.

St John Boste is a safe, happy and stimulating learning environment where personality, talents and interests are nurtured and developed to the full; a place where children can contribute and make a positive difference. Our incredible staff team believe in the power of education to transform lives and the right of every child to receive the best possible educational experience. We are dedicated to helping our children to grow and flourish, so that they become successful, confident learners who are well prepared for the next stage in their learning journey.

Our Mission

Our vision recognises the uniqueness of each person. Our children themselves have captured the essence of our vision in their shared Vision Statement:

Each One of Us is God’s Work of Art! (Ephesian’s 2:10)

At St John Boste School we are one big happy family, always trying to follow in the footsteps of Jesus.

Letters

We send out letters and newsletters on a regular basis to keep parents up to date with school decisions and progress.

At St John Boste, we keep our parents, carers and families informed about upcoming events and celebrations of our children's successes. We regularly publish a newsletter, which is sent out electronically to all of our parents and is made available on this page. We also use Social media to share the very latest events, learning and religious celebrations that take place within our school.
