Welcome back to Term 4! I hope all our families enjoyed a restful break, ready for the exciting term ahead.

Socktober – Mission Month

This October, we celebrate World Mission Month — a time to recognise and support the life-giving work of missionaries around the world.

At St Joseph’s, we are participating in Socktober for Mission Month to help children in Zambia gain access to nutritious food, education, and healthcare. You can learn more about this important initiative by watching the information link provided.

To celebrate Socktober, students are invited to wear crazy socks with their sports uniform on Friday 31st October and bring a gold coin donation.
Additional donations are also welcome anytime between now and the 31st. We understand that every family’s situation is different — even the smallest contribution can make a big difference in the lives of others.

Month of the Rosary

October is also the Month of the Holy Rosary in the Catholic tradition — a special time to honour Mary and grow closer to God through prayer. During this month, we are encouraged to pray the Rosary. The Rosary helps guide our reflection and reminds us of Mary’s love and intercession. It's a time of reflection, unity, and growing in faith together in prayer.

Upcoming Dates

All Souls Day Mass – Tuesday 4th November, presented by Year 3/4, at 12:15pm in the 3/4 classroom.
