Enrolling Now

We still have some spaces in our upcoming 2024 Kindergarten class group. If you know of anyone wanting to enrol their child and enjoy the benefits of our amazing School Readiness Program in Term 4, please encourage them to call the front office for more information and to receive an enrolment pack.  Word of mouth is by far the best form of advertising we have so please spread the word about our wonderful St Joseph's Quirindi school.   

Mary MacKillop's Feast Day

To celebrate St Mary MacKillop's Feast Day on the 8th of August, the students can wear Mufti clothes for a gold coin donation.
