What our Community Says
“We wanted to give our 'host' Lucy a massive thank you and well done. She showed us all around the school and interacted with our little girl which made her feel even more comfortable and she's not stopped talking about Lucy since we got home. A massive credit to the school and Lucy's parents she was so brave taking us round and was so polite. Our little girl will look forward to coming to St. John's. Thank you”
“I would recommend this school wholeheartedly. Leaders have high expectations, and my child is doing well across subjects with lots of extra‑curricular activities to enrich their experience.”
“Leaders and staff show genuine commitment to every child’s personal development. Pupils feel respected, behaviour is consistently positive, and communication with parents is clear and welcoming.”
“Our child feels safe at school every day. Behaviour is well managed and a friendly community atmosphere helps pupils feel secure and supported in their learning.”
On Monday 26th of October, Lennie in Year 3 had a very special evening at the Brick community stadium. He signed his first professional premier league Contract for Wigan athletic football club. Congratulations! #QuestTrust #StJohnsAbram
Y3/4 took part in a Coding workshop where they used their programming skills to input instructions and make their micro bits light up! #QuestTrust #StJohnsAbram #JamCoding
Year 1 have been learning all about the importance of Remembrance Day and why we wear poppies. We learnt about being thankful to all of the people during war that have made sacrifices for our today. We were so impressed that even animals support in war efforts and we wear purple poppies to thank and remember them. #QuestTrust #StJohnsAbram
Year 1 have been busy looking at number bonds to 10. We used tens frames and counters to help us identify the two numbers that add up to 10. #QuestTrust #StJohnsAbram

Year 1 had a treat this morning, as part of our skills builder and personal development, Miss Withington came to talk to us all about her previous job, cooking in a restaurant! We asked her some questions and we even got to make banana bread muffins with her! Thank you Miss Withington for telling us all about the career of a chef! We can't wait to taste the banana muffins later ! #QuestTrust #StJohnsAbram
A huge thank you to Rev. Carol from St John's church who came into school this week to bless our reception class and present them with their first bible. Always remember "you are the light that gives light to the world" - Matthew 5:14 #QuestTrust #StJohnsAbram
What a muddy adventure our KS2 children had at Thursdays cross country competition! Every single one of them gave it their absolute all, showed fantastic determination and did us proud from start to finish! We are so proud of each and every one of them for their effort, enthusiasm and brilliant team spirit. They might have come back covered in mud, but they came back with smiles, memories and a fantastic achievement to celebrate! Well done, everyone! You were all amazing! #QuestTrust #StJohnsAbram
This week Y3 had their Stone Age enrichment day. We wrote narratives using symbols, recorded numbers using tallies, created artefacts and performed drama pieces. What a fantastic day! #QuestTrust #StJohnsAbram
We held a fantastic Stone Age themed day! The children explored prehistoric art by creating their own cave paintings using sandpaper and oil pastels. They had great fun experimenting with colours, patterns and symbols to create their very own Stone Age masterpieces! #QuestTrust #StJohnsAbram
Year 4 have had a FANTASTIC day today on our Stone Age Day. We have turned our classroom into a cave, drawn on our cave walls, made tally marks to count, designed shelters, read and acted out stories and made Stone Age items out of clay. I'm sure they will have lots of stories to tell! #QuestTrust #StJohnsAbram
Our career of the week this week in reception class is a "detective". The children worked as detectives, using their teamwork skills, to figure out who had turned the pumpkins blue! The children asked lots of questions and looked for clues to find the culprit..... Miss Hayes! They then cracked the initial sound code to work out that it was home time. The children worked fabulously as a team and solved both mysteries. #QuestTrust #StJohnsAbram
