"Coming together is the beginning, staying together is progress,
and working together is success." - Henry Ford
It is difficult to believe that the end of 2023 is almost here, with another year of learning and teaching almost complete! We would like to thank all the wonderful St Joseph's staff for their efforts and dedication throughout the year to ensuring the children receive the best education in supportive learning environments. We are proud of the many achievements of our students throughout the year. Whether it be in English or Maths, Religion or Science, on the sporting field or in any other learning area, there is so much to celebrate.
Semester 2 Student Reports
The Semester 2 Reports have been finalised and will be accessible on Compass this afternoon. Please take the time to carefully read the reports and highlight areas of strength and success with your child, and also areas for growth and development. Please do not hesitate to contact the school office if you require assistance to access your child's report or if you have any questions or queries.

Armidale Diocesan Mathematics Initiative (MaST)
We were very excited to be asked by Trish Mitchell, Subject Matter Expert and MaST Project Leader from the Armidale Catholic Schools Office, to have St Joseph's featured on the National Catholic Education Commission's (NCEC) webpage.
The NCEC were looking to showcase the MaST Initiative and we are extremely proud that Trish reached out to us as the school chosen to be featured in the video. Filming took place today as part of this process highlighting the wonderful teaching and learning taking place at St Joseph's by our staff and students.
This is tremendous acknowledgement of the academic success of our students in Mathematics and recognition of the huge commitment from our awesome team of professionals here at St Joseph's. Once again, a huge congratulations to our staff and students. Well done!
We hope you all have a wonderful school holiday break!
