“This is what we are about. We plant the seeds that one day will grow.

We water the seeds already planted knowing that they hold future promise.”

– Bishop Ken Untener

St Joseph’s is a Catholic Primary school in the Diocese of Portsmouth. We believe that the true purpose of our work is to create, in all our community, an ethos in which everyone is inspired by the example of Christ. The children in our care are encouraged to fully engage in their relationship with God, helping them grow as individuals who fully understand their vocation in life. Our school is like a family. Our Mission Statement and motto are at the heart:

We are all God’s Children and will try to Live, Love, Work and Serve as Jesus taught us.

Our School Prayer - written by the children and staff.
