About Senior Infants

Welcome to Senior Infants at St Joseph’s N.S!
Senior Infants is a time of growing independence and exciting discoveries. In this class, children build on the skills they’ve learned in Junior Infants, diving deeper into literacy, numeracy, and creative expression. Our playful and engaging approach ensures that learning is fun and meaningful. Through hands-on activities, group projects, and interactive lessons, we encourage each child to develop their confidence, problem-solving abilities, and a strong sense of teamwork. Senior Infants is all about nurturing curiosity and preparing children for the next step in their educational journey with enthusiasm and joy.
