BBC 500 Words
Filming

500 Books |
To encourage a love of writing and storytelling our literacy lead teacher submitted stories by some of our children for the BBC 500 Words competition.
As part of the competition St Joseph’s were the lucky winners of the random prize draw and won 500 books and a literacy wall art. The 500 books have enhanced our wonderful library and the literacy mural is now an interactive and colourful educational addition to our Upper Junior assembly hall.

On Wednesday 17th July the BBC 500 Words team came to St Joseph’s to create a film about the impact 500 Words has made on the school. This short video is posted on the 500 Words website and aims to inspire teachers and children nationally to enter 500 Words 2024/25.

Some of our
children were interviewed about their experience of participating in the 500
Words competition and the positive impact both writing and reading has had on
them. We are so proud of them.

Not only does
the BBC 500 Words competition inspire children to be creative writers but it
connects our school to the wider community.
