St Patrick’s Primary School enjoys a joyful and meaningful partnership with St John the Baptist Primary School in Zimbabwe. This wonderful link brings pupils and staff together through friendship, faith, and lots of shared smiles. Children love swapping letters, artwork, prayers, and stories about school life, helping them learn from one another in fun and exciting ways. Teachers also share ideas and resources, making lessons richer on both sides. Through this partnership, pupils discover new cultures, build global friendships, and realise how connected the world can be, all while learning, laughing, and growing together. During the summer of 2025 Mrs Gribbin and Mr Scullion had the opportunity to visit the school and work alongside the teacher and pupils, building upon our partnership. We continue to support the school through emails, live zoom lessons and fundraising.
