Welcome
As a Catholic School founded in the tradition of the Sisters of St Joseph of the Sacred Heart our aim is to foster a learning community underpinned by Christian values. The ongoing development of each young person spiritually, academically, socially, physically and emotionally is of paramount importance to all of our staff. Our mission is centred around the pillars of Welcome, Faith, Service and Learning. It is through these pillars that we journey with our students and families.
To be successful in our vocation as educators we recognise and endeavour to build upon the foundation that each child brings from home. This is best achieved when parents and carers work in partnership with teachers and teacher assistants to actively support their child’s learning. As such, you are invited to participate in school life in any of the many opportunities available including classroom support, religious celebrations, excursions, sporting carnivals, canteen and joining the School Advisory Council.
Our year level groupings are designed to maximise student and teacher interaction by providing two teachers in each classroom for the majority of key learning time. This not only permits increased observation of learning but also assists in the development of targeted teaching through professional discussions between teachers.
We sincerely hope that you will consider sending your child to St Joseph’s School where every child is welcome and valued.
