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.”
Year 4 have had a fantastic afternoon practicing their sgraffito skills and responding to stimuli to create art. We made quite the mess but loved how our colours came through! #QuestTrust #StJohnsAbram
In PE this week, Year 1 have been busy exploring how the body moves differently when running at different speeds. We were challenged to be cars, penguins and sonic! It was much easier to move quickly when moving our arms faster. We had some great demonstrations and helpers! #QuestTrust #StJohnsAbram
This week Year 2 have been focusing on their Fundamental PE skills. Looking at moving at different speeds, travelling around in different ways, finding space and controlling their direction and movements. They have been super this week! Well done! #QuestTrust #StJohnsAbram
Reception have had a fantastic first week of phonics! The children are doing amazing recognising, saying and writing the sounds. Well done reception! #QuestTrust #StJohnsAbram
Year 5/6 have enjoyed creating artwork inspired by Hundertwasser, testing out his bright colours and designs! #QuestTrust #StJohnsAbram
Our wonderful children made it into the local news with their fantastic efforts during our Dream Big Day. Take a look by clicking on the link below.
Upper Key Stage 2 have had a fantastic morning talking with Sophie McCooey (Journalism lecturer at at Liverpool John Moores University). They learned all about the skills needed for a career in journalism along with the pathway they would need to follow to get into the role. They asked many interesting questions and learned about the famous people Sophie has interviewed over her career working for local news outlets.
Year 3/4 have been getting creative with artwork inspired by The Dot by Peter H. Reynolds. The children explored how a simple dot can be transformed through colour, pattern and imagination to create something unique. This activity encouraged everyone to have confidence in their own ideas, experiment with their creativity and remember that every artist has to start somewhere! #StJohnsAbram #QuestTrust
Year 1/2 have had a fantastic start to the new school year. They have been working very hard in all core subjects, as well as this children have been marking making in art with different media's, investing seasonal changes in science and getting very active in P.E. Well done Year 1/2 and keep up the hard work. #StJohnsAbram #QuestTrust
Year 4 have been working hard today on their spelling! We have been looking at homophones and how to choose which one to write to make sure our sentences make sense. #StJohnsAbram #QuestTrust
Year 1 have started off our learning on changes within living memory by looking at how we change from a baby, to a toddler, to a pre schooler then a school age child. We discussed how we have changed. #StJohnsAbram #QuestTrust
Take a first look at our brand new school uniform and PE kit. We're excited to share these new photos showcasing our new uniform and PE kit ahead of the new school year. We can't wait to see pupils wearing our new look as it begins to be introduced from September. School uniform and PE kit are available to purchase from Slaters Schoolwear or Sportsline in Ashton. #QUESTtrust #SupportingYoungPeoplefromEarlyYearstoEmployment
What a year of incredible progress at St John's Abram. Our Year 6 SATs results tell an amazing story, with the percentage of pupils achieving the Expected Standard in Reading, Writing and Maths combined increasing by an outstanding 25 percentage points compared to last year. This success has been matched across the school, with Reception Good Level of Development increasing to 79%, excellent phonics outcomes and a remarkable improvement in our Year 4 Multiplication Tables Check results, which increased by 52 percentage points compared to 2025. We couldn't be prouder of our pupils and staff. Congratulations to everyone involved in this fantastic achievement. #QUESTtrust #SupportingYoungPeoplefromEarlyYearstoEmployment
With the warm weather set to continue, all pupils can wear their PE kit to school from Wednesday until further notice if they wish. Please ensure children come to school with a water bottle so they can stay hydrated throughout the day. Thank you for your continued support. #QUESTtrust #SupportingYoungPeoplefromEarlyYearstoEmployment
