Celebrating Student & Staff Achievements
St. Joseph's College
National Champion!
Over 11 & 12 July in Emerald, Queensland, our very own Tess Lloyd (Year 12 VCE-VM student), competed in the Australian Professional Rodeo Association Junior National Finals Rodeo.
Racing with her horse Missy, Tess competed in the 2025 Junior Barrel Racing Australian Title and what a performance it was! After dominating the first two rounds, Tess entered the final with a commanding lead and brought the title home to Victoria.
But she didn’t stop there - Tess and Missy also claimed the APRA 2025 Pro Tour Champion title!
Congratulations Tess - your dedication, skill and partnership with Missy have made us all so proud.
Hands on Learning
A big congratulations to Ollie, who is shining in his work experience placement at Fuzion Café in Echuca one day a week.
Ollie has been part of our Hands on Learning (HoL) program since day one, and he’s an absolute legend!
HoL is a practical in-school program that builds engagement, wellbeing and attendance by creating opportunities for students to discover their talents and experience success through significant and authentic hands-on projects.
Ollie has certainly found his talent - and we couldn’t be prouder!
