Our school motto at St Joseph’s is CHRIST IS OUR MODEL.

All children are given the opportunity to learn about Christ and the Catholic Church through Religious Education lessons and regular participation at school masses and liturgies. Prayer is an integral part of school life. The Diocesan ‘To Know, Worship and Love’ document is used as a basis for the RE Curriculum. Here at St Joseph’s we work in partnership with families and the parish. Students have regular contact with our Parish Priest and although the Sisters of Saint Joseph are no longer present in town we have regular contact with Sr Petra from Barraba.

 

Being part of a caring Catholic community instills our students with a sense of identity,
a feeling of belonging and above all a powerful sense of self-worth.

As a school we endeavour to create and maintain a caring and nurturing environment which embraces Catholic beliefs and traditions and reflects the Gospel Values of:

Faith             HOPE              Love

PATIENCE         Justice           Gentleness           TRUST
