Lost Property
We currently have a large number of rugby jumpers and jackets in lost property.
These can be collected by visiting Mrs Julie Pearson or the Front Office.
A reminder to all families that the best way to reduce lost property is to write your name on all uniform items and belongings.
The process for lost property at St Joseph's is:
- all lost property is collected and taken to the Front Office
- named items are returned to the student
- un-named items are kept for one week before being transferred to storage (uniform) or disposed of (plastic containers and drink bottles).
We thank you for your cooperation on this matter.
