A Mighty Spoonville THANK YOU to All!!

The contractors have moved into the grounds and are preparing the land for Spoonville…….

We have seen plenty of wooden spoons being sent in for your child to start decorating our 'Spoonys' to help us develop our own Spoonville community.

Here at St Joseph’s Primary, we wanted to link the Mental Health Month theme of  ‘Tune In’ to both our school community and our larger community of the Hastings Valley. To achieve this, we are going to make our very own Spoonville community and register it with Spoonville International (https://spoonvilleinternational.com/)

Spoonville is an initiative that was started in the UK by a lady called ‘Karen’ in Winnersh, Berkshire. She wanted to cheer up her local community during COVID-19 and did this by making Spoony characters and placing them in different parts of her village for families to see when they went for a walk.

On Friday 27th November we will be placing our Spoonys in the gardens of the school for our students, parents and carers as well as passersby to see as they walk past.

Thank you for your support of this initiative. 

Keep your eyes peeled for more developments on our school Facebook page!!
