24.01.2022 Mrs Hallinan would like to say a huge THANK-YOU to you to our fantastic community for the support of the Book Fair (which still runs on THURSDAY 5th!) The children were excited, polite, patient, grateful and kind to one another as they ‘shopped’ today. As usual our parents were extremely generous in their support. We are very very lucky.

24.01.2022 A reminder that it is Zooper Dooper Day tomorrow!

22.01.2022 As part of The Koala Project, our Year 6 Leaders visited Taronga Zoo. We’re excited to share this post by Sydney Catholic Schools showing the amazing day the students had and how much they have learnt through this project

21.01.2022 This is the last week of Library lessons for St Joseph's students...please ensure all library books are returned by Friday, 27 November. Students who wish to borrow for the holidays, need to speak with Mrs Hallinan next week.

17.01.2022 Last week Year 2 went on an excursion to Loftus Tramway Museum as part of their History unit - The Past in the Present. Throughout the day they learnt about the History of Trams in Sydney and how they have changed since they were first introduced here. The best part of the day was having two different tram rides as well as playing on a tram at lunchtime.

15.01.2022 Please be aware - There is a change to carline this afternoon. Please follow signage and listen to staff directions.

13.01.2022 During Book Week, St Joseph’s held a ‘decorate your cake as a shortlisted book’ competition! We had 107 students decorating their cakes at school. It was soo fun and the results were amazing. Even Miss Harris and Mrs Mathers decorated cakes! Here are a few of the many masterpieces.

11.01.2022 Great enthusiasm today as classes visited the Book Fair and created wish lists Further information has been sent home with your child and also via Compass- including clearer pictures and a price list. Stock of pencils, highlighters etc is limited due to deliveries and Covid, but there are PLENTY of great books.

10.01.2022 Last week, Kindergarten were excited to go on their first ever excursion to Calmsley Hill Farm for their Science Unit on Living Things!! The students got to see cows, sheep and even a sheep dog show. We do think the highlight might just have been the iceblocks at the end of what was a long hot day! Everyone had so much fun

10.01.2022 Here is a just a sample of the great variety of books and items available at St Joseph’s Book Fair this week.

07.01.2022 This term Year 6 was involved in Project Koala in conjunction with Taronga Zoo. This program involves school students engaging in their local community to take care of a threatened species, this year focusing on Australia's iconic animal the Koala. Students were guided by their teachers and experts in the field through a STEM focused inquiry project to design a conservation solution to ensure the ongoing survival of Koalas. Year 6 participated in a habitat day growing eucalyptus trees and had interactive days with Zoo educators and Koala experts. Congratulations on your amazing projects Year 6!
