25.01.2022 As we say farewell to Term 2, we say thank you to everyone in our College Community who has supported the College and our boys throughout a very busy, and at times challenging, term. We hope the boys have a restful, happy and, most importantly, healthy break! We look forward to seeing everyone back when Term 3 commences on Monday 13 July. #preparingforlife

25.01.2022 An important letter from the Principal has been emailed to all Parents, Guardians and Students regarding Term 3 Schooling. A copy of the letter, in addition to previous correspondence, is also available in the Parent Portal. #preparingforlife

24.01.2022 What a wonderful day for our Year 9s (2021) who spent the day at Lysterfield Lake for a bit of canoeing, tent making, hiking, cycling....thanks Mr James Whiting for a superbly organised day.

24.01.2022 Well done to all of the boys who participated in the first ever St Joseph's Virtual House Cross Country event! With the regular carnival not able to be held due to Government restrictions, this event has been the focus of timetabled Sport for students in Years 7-10 for the majority of Term 3. It has been terrific to see the weekly submissions being made. Equally impressive was the efforts from a number of Year 11 and 12 students, whose contributions have impacted so positively on the event. Congratulations to RUA, the 2020 Cross Country Champions! Well done also to the placegetters from each of the age groups! #preparingforlife

14.01.2022 All members of our College staff are working to ensure that the education and wellbeing of our boys remains paramount throughout this remote learning period.

As these begin to arrive in mailboxes, the trial exams will help the boys begin their preparation for the end of year VCAA exams. #preparingforlife

12.01.2022 Whilst we may not have been able to gather together as one large College Community, each class this morning paused to reflect and pay our respects for Remembrance Day. Ever-living God, we remember those whom you have gathered from the storm of war into the peace of your presence; may that same peace calm our fears, bring justice to all peoples and establish harmony among the nations, through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. We will remember them. ... https://vimeo.com/477923429

10.01.2022 On Sunday 5 July, the Catholic Church celebrates Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Sunday. The COVID-19 pandemic has forced NATSICC to rethink the ways in which it empowers Catholics to celebrate this special day. NATSICC has modified its Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Sunday resources to work in a digital setting. NATSICC is also holding the first-ever live-streamed Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Sunday Mass from the St Francis Xavier Cathedral in Adelaide @11.30am EST. The livestream will be available from the NATSICC homepage. NATSICC is inviting everyone around Australia - and the World - to join in as we come Together in the Spirit to celebrate the gifts of spirituality and culture.

06.01.2022 A reminder that the College will be participating in a Wellbeing Day tomorrow, in recognition of how hard the students and staff have been working during these challenging times. This means that there will be no scheduled classes taking place over Zoom, nor will there be any onsite supervision of eligible students on this day. This Wellbeing Day will provide the opportunity for the boys to take some time away from the full learning program including Zoom. We encourage the boys to enjoy the day as much as possible despite the restrictions that are in place during Stage 4. #preparingforlife
