School Events Term 1 2026

We are looking forward to the many sporting events, extracurricular activities, working bees, community events, and of course, the biennial Art Show, which will take place early in Term 4 this year. Across the year, each of these important dates and events will be communicated well in advance by me, our school leaders and class teachers, and marked on our school calendar. 

 

At the beginning of the term, you will receive the term newsletters from class teachers on the School Dojo. Below you will find some important dates for Term 1. Please mark these dates in your calendar. 

 

Please note that adjustments to events and dates may be necessary throughout the term, and we will endeavour to communicate this to families as soon as possible. 

 

All school events will be shared via the Family Google Calendar. Please use the following link to access: St Joseph's Family Calendar.
