About Second Class
Welcome to Second Class at St Joseph’s N.S!
Second Class marks an important stage of development, where children gain confidence and take on greater challenges in their learning journey. Building on the foundation of earlier years, students in Second Class deepen their understanding of key concepts in literacy, numeracy, and creative thinking. They also engage in more complex projects, group work, and critical thinking activities. Our goal is to inspire curiosity, foster independence, and encourage collaboration among classmates. Second Class is a time for growing both academically and socially, as children prepare for the next stage of their educational path with excitement and enthusiasm.
