Foundation Stage 2023 - 2024
Miss Howard
Hello!
This is my 6th year teaching at St Joseph's and will be teaching in Reception again this year! I am also Early Years Lead which I am really excited about.
I am the Modern Foreign Languages and Global Links lead. I look forward to igniting a love for languages across school!
When I am not in school I can usually be found baking or spending time with friends and family.
I can't wait to start our learning journey together!

I’m excited to begin my second year at St Joseph’s! This year I will be teaching in Nursery, which is a new challenge for me that I am very much looking forward to. I love working within the EYFS because we just have so much fun!
I will be leading Design and Technology across school again this year, but will also be taking on Computing. I am continuing to lead our journey as a “Rights Respecting” school. The Right’s Ambassadors and I will have lots of news and updates on this throughout the year, so watch this space!.
Miss Bennett
This is my fourth year of teaching at St Joseph's. I'm looking forward to teaching in Reception this year. For 9 years I was a teaching assistant working throughout St Joseph's. I am responsible for School Council and RSE.
Outside of school I love walking and spending time with friends and family.
