Principal's Report

Welcome to the first newsletter of the 2025 school year! It is my pleasure to kick off what promises to be an exciting and productive year for all our students, staff, and families.

As we embark on this new year, I want to take a moment to reflect on the positive energy and potential that our school community holds. We are committed to providing an environment where every student feels valued, supported, and challenged. With our new school build due to be completed very soon, our community is a buzz with how wonderful our new environment will be. The positive impact this infrastructure will have for all at St Joseph’s is greatly anticipated.

  • New Staff Members: We are thrilled to welcome Josie McInerney to our team this year. Josie is our Kindergarten teacher and brings with her a great warmth and enthusiasm and wonderful fresh ideas to our staff.  Cat Dawson is returning as our Creative Arts teacher and executive release teacher and brings a wealth of knowledge and passion to our school, and we are excited for them both to get to know our students and families.
  • Grace Braun is our Aboriginal Education Officer and we are looking forward to working with Grace and the positivity that she brings to the role.
  • Upcoming Events: We have several events coming on the horizon, including:
    • Swimming carnival – Friday 14th February
    • Opening School Mass – Tuesday 18th February.  Followed by morning tea and our Classroom Information sessions – all are most welcome to attend.

Please mark your calendars!

This year, we continue to focus on Catholic Educations two bold goals for our system:

  • Every student is a competent reader and
  • High Impact Teaching Practice is visible in every classroom

As we continue into the year, I encourage all families to stay involved in the school community. Whether through working bees, attending events, or simply staying in communication with teachers, your support plays an integral role in the success of our students.

Thank you for your continued partnership. I look forward to seeing what we will accomplish together this year.

Blessings for the week ahead,

Kirsty Beavan
