Classrooms were bursting with colour, imagination, and creativity as children arrived with the most brilliant and bold hairstyles. ### Incredible Creativity From Our School Community We want to give a huge shout‑out to our wonderful parents and carers, whose imagination and effort helped bring these amazing styles to life. From glittery updos to rainbow spikes, each hairstyle reflected fantastic creativity and enthusiasm. The excitement across the school was infectious, and it was heart‑warming to see everyone taking part with such joy. ### Walking for Awareness Some of our dedicated **Mini Vinnies** and members of our **Community Crew** also joined pupils from local primary schools for a special MND awareness walk. Together, they tied blue ribbons, handed out knitted MND hearts, and shared messages of kindness with members of our local community. Their actions helped spread awareness and compassion far beyond the school gates. ### A Fantastic Fundraising Achievement Thanks to the generosity and support of our families, pupils, and the wider community, we raised **over £120** for the Motor Neurone Disease Association. This contribution will help support vital research and provide assistance to individuals and families affected by MND. A huge thank you to everyone who participated, donated, and helped make this day so meaningful. At St Joseph’s Catholic Primary School in Billingham, we are proud to support causes that inspire empathy, awareness, and unity. ![](https://stjosephsbillingham.bhcet.org.uk/images/659772247_1321350943378923_5200988370393484114_n.jpg)![](https://stjosephsbillingham.bhcet.org.uk/images/659802385_1321350783378939_3719221898289189134_n.jpg) [Community Links and Fundraising](https://stjosephsbillingham.bhcet.org.uk/news/tag/community-links-and-fundraising) [ Bye Bye our Old St. Joseph’s Building!](https://stjosephsbillingham.bhcet.org.uk/news/2026-03-24-bye-bye-our-old-st-joseph-s-building) [Walking Together for CAFOD This Lent ](https://stjosephsbillingham.bhcet.org.uk/news/2026-04-09-walking-together-for-cafod-this-lent) ![St. Joseph's Catholic Primary School](https://files.schudio.com/st-joseph-s-catholic-primary-school-billingham-2/images/logo/Bishop_Hogarth_and_Hexham_Logo_new_(1).png) ### St. Joseph's Catholic Primary School Low Grange Avenue Billingham TS23 3NN 01642 560056 - [Office 365](https://outlook.office365.com/carmel.org.uk) - [Remote Access](https://remote.carmel.org.uk/) - [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/St-Josephs-Billingham-103735271280859/) - [Liturgy](https://liturgy.bhcet.org.uk/) - [Teams FAQs](https://bhcet.org.uk/information/teams-faqs/) - [Newsletters](https://stjosephsbillingham.bhcet.org.uk/news-events/newsletters) - [Accelerated Reader](https://global-zone61.renaissance-go.com/welcomeportal/6709571) ### Social Media - [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/St-Josephs-Billingham-103735271280859/) - [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/stjosephs_billingham/) ### Translation ### Office 365 [Sign in to Office 365](https://outlook.office.com/) © Copyright 2025–2026 St. Joseph's Catholic Primary School School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://stjosephsbillingham.bhcet.org.uk/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
