Their growing phonics knowledge has been applied beautifully across their work, showing real understanding and accuracy. ### Growing Independence and Enthusiasm Miss Davis has been extremely impressed by the group’s **focus, enthusiasm and increasing independence**. The children are becoming more confident learners each day, approaching tasks positively and proudly showing what they know. **Well done to Miss Davis’ phonics superstars — keep up the amazing work!** **![](https://st-joseph-s-catholic-academy-2.schudio.com/images/693520786_1516065626976243_7784785365577257214_n.jpg)![](https://st-joseph-s-catholic-academy-2.schudio.com/images/691535618_1516065640309575_3181568189950135013_n.jpg)** [ A Bug‑Tastic Day to Remember in Early Years and Key Stage 1](https://st-joseph-s-catholic-academy-2.schudio.com/news/2026-05-05-a-bug-tastic-day-to-remember-in-early-years-and-key-stage-1) [Year 6 Celebrate SATs Success in Style ](https://st-joseph-s-catholic-academy-2.schudio.com/news/2026-05-15-year-6-celebrate-sats-success-in-style) ![St Joseph’s Catholic Academy](https://files.schudio.com/st-joseph-s-catholic-academy-2/images/logo/Bishop_Hogarth_and_Hexham_Logo_new_(1).png) ### St Joseph’s Catholic Academy Ragworth Road Norton Stockton on Tees TS20 1HR 01642 360401 - [Office 365](https://outlook.office365.com/carmel.org.uk) - [Parents Evening System](https://stjosephsrcnorton.parentseveningsystem.co.uk/) - [Accelerated Reader](https://www.myon.co.uk/login/index.html) - [Teams FAQs](https://bhcet.org.uk/information/teams-faqs/) - [Remote Learning](https://st-joseph-s-catholic-academy-2.schudio.com/information/remote-learning) - [Online Payments](https://www.mychildatschool.com/MCAS/MCSParentLogin) - [Remote Learning](https://remote.carmel.org.uk/) - [Liturgy](https://liturgy.bhcet.org.uk/) - [Year 6 Transition Curriculum](https://bhcet.org.uk/year6transitioncurriculum/) ### Social Media - [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/stjosephsnorton/) - [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/stjosephscatholicacademy/) ### Translation ### Office 365 [Sign in to Office 365](https://outlook.office.com/) © Copyright 2025–2026 St Joseph’s Catholic Academy School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://st-joseph-s-catholic-academy-2.schudio.com/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
