Principal's Welcome

St. Joseph’s School is a Catholic co-educational Primary School within the Archdiocese of Canberra Goulburn, located in the beautiful south-west slopes region of New South Wales. The school caters for 50 students from Kindergarten to Year 6.

St Joseph's is a fantastic school in the heart of Grenfell. Our community is made up of dedicated staff, wonderful students, parents and friends who work together to build up the spirit of St Joseph within our community.

It is not possible to share everything through the pages of a website, nor will you be able to appreciate the genuine warmth and vibrancy of our school community.

You are most welcome to visit the school to see the genuine learning and teaching that is taking place at St Joseph’s. For more information, appointments and tours, please contact our friendly front office staff or the Principal.

For those families wishing to make enquiries about enrolments for 2018 and beyond, I invite you to come and visit with us at St Joseph's to learn more about the various opportunities for your child.

Like St Joseph we as a community make realistic connections with Learning, The World, Each Other and Our God.

We look forward to meeting with you,

Therese Clancy
Principal

Changes to planned events

17 Mar 2020

RE: P & F meeting

As you will be aware, we are currently dealing with a variety of challenges due to the covid19/coronavirus outbreak.

As a result, we are implementing added precautions to school routines.

Please be aware that we have received advice from Catholic Education that all gatherings for meetings etc. are to be postponed.

As such we will not be holding our P & F meeting tonight. Once we receive updated advice about such meetings, we will resume our regular P & F meetings.

RE: St Joseph’s Day & Publication Celebration

As mentioned above, we are implementing added precautions to school routines.

As such we will not be holding our scheduled St Joseph’s Day publication celebration on Thursday as planned. It is unfortunate that we are not able to proceed with this event, however, it is important for us to follow the advice that is being received from Catholic Education.

Over the coming days, we will pre-record various publications and share these with you via electronic means, so that you are able to see and hear some of the completed works from Term 1.

Once we receive updated advice about such events, we will resume our publication celebrations.

RE: Parent Teacher interviews scheduled for next week

Thank you to those families who have returned notes for the planned parent teacher interviews – scheduled for next Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday.

Please be aware that due to the precautions being implemented across our school communities these interviews will now take place via telephone.

We will continue with the planned times that you have nominated as far as possible.
