Our school is an establishment and a point of interest in the area, offering primary education to children. At St Joseph’s, we pride ourselves on providing an excellent education that aligns with our Catholic character.

We invite you to become a part of our Catholic school community, which is built on the charism of The Sisters of Our Lady of the Missions RNDM. Our proud history and heritage are deeply valued, and we strive to uphold the charism of our founding order. The special character of our school is expressed through our students, teachers, and the wider school community, as we live and teach the Gospel Values.

Our dedicated staff work tirelessly to create a positive, caring, and Christian environment where excellence is encouraged, diversity is valued, and success is celebrated. St Joseph’s is an integrated Catholic Primary School that caters to children from new entrants to year eight. We are a friendly school with a strong emphasis on pastoral care, reflecting our mission values. Our goal is to foster right relationships with God, ourselves, others, and creation.

At St Joseph’s, children have positive and enjoyable learning experiences. We celebrate learning and achievement, aiming to develop confident and faith-filled learners. Our teaching staff brings a range of expertise, interests, and experience to the classroom. They work collaboratively, sharing their professional skills and knowledge to engage children in their learning. We provide a holistic education that encompasses spiritual, academic, physical, social, and emotional development. Our dedicated team is committed to supporting your children on their learning journeys.

We are fortunate to be part of the St Patrick’s Parish Community and have the support of a very engaged parent community. Our mission is to ensure that when students leave St Joseph’s School, they possess the necessary skills, values, and attitudes to continue their educational journey and make meaningful contributions to society and the Catholic Church community.
