Staff Appreciation Week
This week we have taken the time to recognize and thank the incredible staff of our school. While we celebrated internally, it has also been lovely for staff to receive email and letters of thanks from students and families. We really are blessed with wonderful staff who give a lot to the students of the school.
One Big Voice
We sent our very excited choir, of approximately 50 primary students, down to Perth last Friday to take part in the matinee performance of the One Big Voice Concert. Along with approximately 1000 others, the students lifted the roof of RAC Arena with an incredible performance and some military precision organization. A huge thank you to Mrs Morris and Ms Paige Ludwig for their patience and direction as they prepared the choir with weekly rehearsals since March. We are very proud of all those involved!
Farewell Mrs Sandrini
Today we farewell Mrs Sandrini after 4 years of wonderful service to the school as the manager of the Primary Canteen. Mrs Sandrini has worked tirelessly to cook beautiful home cooked food and has also donated her time on a Tuesday morning to run breakfast Club. We thank her profusely for all that she has done and wish her well in her new career path.



Father's Day Breakfast
We look forward to seeing a big crowd at our Father’s Day breakfast and games morning on Monday 8th September. Your last chance to purchase tickets is today! Link to Information Letter
Schooling Destinations 2026
Families are asked to inform the school if their intention is to withdraw their children from St Josephs for the 2026 school year. We understand that family situations change, so ask that you let us know ASAP. This can be done by emailing admin@sjsnortham.wa.edu.au or by competing the Departure Form on the school website. Some year levels have very long wait lists and families who are desperate to get their children into the school.
