Welcome to St. Joseph’s School, Payneham. Your choice of schooling is one of the most important decisions made on behalf of your child, and I trust that choosing this school will prove to be a worthwhile and enjoyable experience for you, your family, and especially your child. We endeavour to work together, with yourselves as partners in your child’s educational and spiritual development.

Our school is an exciting place to be and the purpose of this Web site is to share some of this excitement with you. It will provide you with some specific information about our educational programs and daily routines. More importantly, it will serve to welcome you into our caring community.

We strive to provide the best possible learning environment for the students in our care. Through a balanced and sound educational program, we offer students an experience in learning which will foster good study habits within a Christian setting. We are most fortunate to be blessed with a very dedicated and talented Staff who have a great love and concern for all our students.

Our Parish and parent groups are also extremely supportive of our school. I thank our School and Parish community for their help, support and assistance. With their support we are able to make St. Joseph’s a welcoming, learning, vibrant, faith-filled community.

I hope that the information included on our school’s Web site will make you more aware of our vision and aspirations. We take pride in our achievements and seek your assistance in promoting the continuation of our high standards.

Yours sincerely,

Laurie Sammut
Principal
