It was fantastic to see such enthusiasm for learning about another faith. ### Hands‑On Experiences Our younger pupils brought in **special objects from home**, helping them connect with artefacts linked to the Islamic faith. This made the learning meaningful and memorable. ### Making Connections Older pupils reflected on their learning by making thoughtful **comparisons between Islam and Christianity**, helping them develop a deeper understanding of faith and shared values. **Well done to all our pupils for their respect, engagement and excellent work!** **![](https://st-joseph-s-catholic-academy-2.schudio.com/images/704839854_1528989992350473_6191989147050408595_n.jpg)![](https://st-joseph-s-catholic-academy-2.schudio.com/images/703455930_1528989885683817_8044726423393768332_n.jpg)** [ A Colourful Celebration: Whole School Colour Run](https://st-joseph-s-catholic-academy-2.schudio.com/news/2026-05-26-a-colourful-celebration-whole-school-colour-run) [Preparing for the Future: Year 6 Transition Workshop ](https://st-joseph-s-catholic-academy-2.schudio.com/news/2026-06-08-preparing-for-the-future-year-6-transition-workshop) ![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/)
