On Friday pupils from St Josephโs joined the St Piran’s children’s parade with the many others from the community. The parade started at the castle green and processed through the town square with traditional Cornish singing and dancing. The children were joined by the Mayor, Mayoress and councillors. St Piranโs Day, the national day of Cornwall, is celebrated each year across the county on 5th March.ย Saint Piran was the patron saint of tin miners.
Last week we celebrated and raised money for World Book Day ๐There were some excellent costumes across the school, from a tiny Elmer the Elephant in Reception, all the way to Mr Scottโs William Shakespeare. Professional book illustrator, Lydia Christine, came in and did a โzineโ workshop with Years 5 and 6, where students created their own illustrated characters and stories. The book in a box competition was a great success with over 40 entries and with so much effort and attention to detail, the judging was very difficult! In the end many special commendations were given out, as well as the main prizes, as the creativity and execution was excellent. Well done everyone โญ
