Partnerships with Families 


​At St Joseph's we value families. We place great importance on building relationships with the families of our students.

St Joseph’s is known for striving to involve the whole family in each child’s learning journey.  At St Joseph’s we recognise parents and carers as each child's first educators. We invite families to join with us in further developing the spiritual and intellectual potential of their children, by being involved in school and parish activities.

We believe parents and carers are vital members of our school community.  A powerful partnership built on open communication, mutual trust and respect is of benefit to everyone, most importantly the children.

Family involvement is a cornerstone of our school community and occurs in many ways, including:
  • Participation in St Joseph's School Council
  • Involvement in St Jospeph's Parents and Friends Association
  • School Masses
  • Friday afternoon awards assemblies
  • Class support such as Reading and Craft Groups
  • Excursions
  • Shared Lunches
  • Sporting Events
  • School Social Functions
  • Canteen
  • Participation in fundraising events
