Welcome to St. Joseph’s Catholic Primary School Hendon

St. Joseph’s Catholic Primary School is a vibrant and historic part of the neighbourhood of Hendon in North West London. Founded in 1882 initially as a boarding school, the school has survived two World Wars and gone from strength to strength. We work to give our children the best possible education in the fullest sense of the word – academically, spiritually and emotionally.

The gospel principles of loving your neighbour, of compassion and of justice permeate all aspects of our school life. We are a friendly and outward-looking school community, welcoming families from all parts of the world. We are proud of our success in academic exams and achievements on the sports field, and we also have good links with local, national and international charities and organizations.

Please take time to browse our website to find out more about the school and the fantastic activities we are involved in.

    Urgent reminder! Please read message
    Dear Parents & Carers, Reminder We regret to inform you that our previous Committee meeting did not yield the desired outcome. We are now arranging one final meeting for ALL parents and carers to attend on Thursday, 17th October 2024, at 8:45 am in the school dining hall. The purpose of this meeting is to transfer the management of the charity to new parents to ensure the continuity of future events. Without this transition, we may be forced to close the Charity, which would be a great loss as it provides vital support to the school by funding various activities and critical resources. It is essential that this work continues to help the school thrive and to ensure that enjoyable events such as the Summer Fair, Christmas Fair, cake stalls, class discos, and more, can be enjoyed by all the students. Your attendance at this meeting is crucial to preserving this tradition. Thank you, The Friends of St. Joseph's Charity

    Summer Fair - Thank you!
    Hello All, We would like to express our deep gratitude to everyone who joined us at our Summer Fair on Saturday. The weather was perfect, and I hope you all had a wonderful time with your loved ones. It was fantastic to see familiar faces and meet new parents in the playground. The games, inflatables, and tombola were all very popular. Even Sponge the Teacher was a huge hit (Thanks for taking one for the team!), and we would like to extend a special thank you to everyone who contributed. It was heartwarming to have former teachers visit us—it's clear that they missed their old students & colleagues! A big shout out to all the volunteers and staff who dedicated their entire Saturday to ensure the fair ran smoothly. Your hard work and dedication did not go unnoticed. Special thanks to the lovely members of Our Lady of Dolours, Hendon, and our local MP, David Pinto-Duschinsky, for their support. We raised a grand profit of £1,065.26 Hurrah! We will use these funds towards providing additional educational activities for the school. Looking ahead, a new team will plan more events, and your ongoing support as volunteers is invaluable. Please keep an eye out for more details on PING. Again, Thank you for generously donating your time. With heartfelt appreciation, The Friends of St Joseph’s Committee
