St John Vianney Primary School
COMMUNITY
In Catholic Social Teaching, the value of community develops the interconnectedness of us all and the importance of working together for the common good. It promotes solidarity, mutual responsibility, and the idea that a good community looks after the well-being and dignity of all.
ACROSS THE CURRICULUM
In Religious Education (RE), the children learn about different faith communities, understanding the values of cooperation and mutual respect, and exploring the idea of serving others. In Personal, Social and Health Education (PSHE), the curriculum includes work on community involvement (in units such as 'Our School Environment', 'Democracy' and 'Working Together').
The History curriculum covers diverse communities from different time periods, cultures, and geographical locations. This can include studying how communities have evolved, how they interacted with each other, and the impact of collective actions on historical events. Geography work features the concept of communities, looking at both local and global communities and the important message that we are all connected with a responsibility to care for our world (economies, cultures, and how they are interconnected through trade and migration).
The Citizenship curriculum encourages children to understand their rights and responsibilities as members of various communities, whether local, national, or global. This includes learning about democracy, justice, equality, and participation in community decision-making processes.

Our Choir Joins the Haringey Community in the Haringey Singing Festival!
The SJV choir are a hard-working, 'touring' troupe who take great pleasure in representing the school at prestigious events. This week, they took part in the Haringey Singing Festival, joining the schools from across the borough to create some lovely music and great memories together!
SJV Community 'Smashes' the London Mini-Marathon!
The SJV Community was again represented in style this weekend when we took part in the world-famous London Marathon! A huge team of teacher, parents and (of course) children made the trip up to London's West End to run the last part of this iconic course, passing Buckingham Palace and Horse Guards' Parade along the way. What a wonderful group of people, doing a wonderful thing together!
