Mini Vinnies

St Joseph's Catholic Primary School and Nursery is a Mini-Vinnie school! Mini-Vinnie groups are set up in Catholic primary schools, and carry out good deeds in helping the needy within school, the local community and the wider world.

Mini Vinnies follow the motto of see-think-do! They see who needs help in the world, think about how they can help and then do something about it. Their mission is to turn concern into action.

Our St Joseph's Mini Vinnies Team has:

• Written our new school prayer
