Wishes for the end of 2020

Thank you to all of our parents, carers and families for your support of St Joseph’s in one of the most challenging and unusual years that we have experienced. While there were lots of challenges, there have also been some wonderful successes which have given us much to learn about. We wish you the most wonderful Christmas together and hope that over the holidays there is some time to spend together. May God bless you all, and the Nativity be a reminder of how much you are loved and cared for.

YEAR 6 GRADUATION

We celebrated the culmination of the primary school years for our Year 6 students this week with their mass, awards, dinner, fun day and final farewell ceremony. It has been a pleasure to work with these students and their families. We wish them the very best in their moving on to high school. A very big thanks to all parents and staff who made the graduation events so very special.

We are pleased to announce the major award winners. Congratulations to the following students:

Goodbyes and Thank yous for Staff

I would like to acknowledge staff who will be leaving or changing their work with us for 2021. 

We say goodbye and thank you to Josie and Aunty Sue, who have been working at St Joseph’s for an extended period of time as Education Assistants. Their wonderful contributions to our school have been appreciated and valued, and we will miss them being with us each day. We wish these amazing ladies all the best as they enjoy spending time with family and friends. We hope they will pop in to visit us often. They were recognised for their service in our assembly today.

We also thank Alison Young and Catherine McKelvie who worked part time on our teaching teams this year. We greatly appreciate their commitment and work with us, and they will continue as casual teachers next year, so we will only be saying “see you later” and thank you to these two special ladies.
