St
Joseph's Convent Independent Primary School for Girls

The Sisters
of Mercy opened their Convent in Wanstead in 1917, just 2 Years before
Canon Booker was appointed the first Parish Priest of Our Lady of Lourdes
in 1919.
At this time,
44 Years before the opening Our Lady of Lourdes School in 1961, the
Sisters were the first "Teachers" to the children of the Parish.
From this
evolved St. Joseph's Convent Independent Primary School for Girls, which
is a fee-based School, giving high quality Catholic Education to 4 -
11 Year Olds.
For the last
few years the school has operated with lay teaching staff, although
the Institute of Our Lady of Mercy still remain the Trustees of the
school and the Faith / Pastoral Link is still active and strong.
The School
is still based within the Convent grounds at 59 Cambridge Park Wanstead.
