Badminton Club Update
The St. Joseph’s Gorey Badminton Club is thriving with more members than ever before! Open to 5th and 6th class students, our club has been buzzing with excitement as we focus on improving our doubles game skills. The team has been working hard in preparation for the upcoming Leinster competition in January, and everyone is giving their best effort during practice. Recently, we were fortunate to have Garry from Leinster Badminton visit the school to lead a special training session, offering valuable tips and techniques to help us reach our full potential.

Annabelle Coade won gold in the U9 80m race.

We are very proud of all our athletes who took part and it was a thoroughly enjoyable day.
World Book Day Celebrations 2023
World Book Day was a huge success here in St.Joseph’s Primary School. To celebrate World Book Day each child was given a World Book Day token to encourage reading . Every child could dress up as a favourite character from their favourite book and there was some fantastic costumes parading the school for the day . As a whole school we celebrated this day through a special announcement of DEAR time over the intercom . Classes were busy designing their own book covers as well as drawing their favourite characters . It was a positive experience for all and great effort was invested by parents, teachers and students . We all thoroughly enjoyed the day . Happy Reading !
